So are you using Bragg's ACV?

Does Publix carry the fresh horseradish and turmeric root?

I have the ginger on hand all the time.

Bragg's is good, not only is it raw, organic and unpasteurized, it is also non-gmo verified. I rarely buy fresh veggies from the grocery store these days, so I am not sure if Publix carries it or not. I can just about guarantee they do not carry the organic. I get my turmeric root from a local Indian market and I get the horseradish root from Judy's, which is a local health food store nearby.
They are both really cheap to buy organic and won't break the bank like some other organic stuff does. For a quart you only need about a half a cup diced of each. If your local health food store doesn't have it in, ask them if they can order it for you. Most places will oblige if able. I hope to plant some turmeric next year, so I have it on hand.

Thank you so much Jesse!

For the recipe and info on finding horseradish and turmeric. I had no idea turmeric was a root! Perhaps I can grow some also.

Can I just say--- I really dislike when you write a really good response and it doesn't post.

Here let's try it again--

My favourite for sore throats--

Sore throat remedy: Lemon and Raw Honey ~ let sit in refrigerator until lemon and rind break down into marmalade-like mixture. Place in cup & add hot water. Drink & feel better.

My favourite that I drink daily--

Ginger & Turmeric Honey Bomb. I found this recipe when I was sick with a virus and was out for about 2 weeks. I made my own version before I found it -- fresh grated ginger, fresh grated turmeric, lemon, raw honey and hot water, drank a lot.

Another chart that I enjoy is--

And Jesse-- I'm not sure I could handle the Fire cider-- onions are not my favourite things raw. But I found something very similar to what you're talking about. Take a look here ----> master tonic

I do acupuncture weekly (have been for 5 years), drink either avc or lemon water daily in am, do the honey bomb during the day, and take mushrooms for immune boosters.

Sorry this thread is a bit off rail, but I find all this so interesting-- and it works.

Thanks ahk! Yes, that one is very similar to mine. Like I said before, everyone needs to make the tonic with roots, veggies, and herbs that they can tolerate, so leave the onions out if you like or just strain all of the solids out after one month and toss into your compost. It sounds like you are doing good stuff for yourself, and that's a good thing.

P.S. You didn't derail the thread, I actually did I think, but it's okay. We should go and resurrect the Herbal Thread, it's been out of commission for a while I think.

I made chicken soup the other day... planned to serve it with rice for Roomie .. I don't like it with rice. Makes it all starchy ick. Well anyhoo, I had put turmeric in it, added powdered green Chili (hot). Omg.... so good!!! Will do it again next time!

I love my own cooking!!

I love my homemade chicken soup, too ... just love it. I keep some in the freezer at all times. I can always pull out a container for dinner or lunch when I don't want to cook. I only have chicken and veggies in mine, then I can add avocado, cumin, cilantro, chopped tomatoes, or maybe some greens (kale or collards) depending on what I have on hand.

I bake my chicken using lots of herbs, then I boil the bones for a few hours, and I add the chicken and veggies toward the end after I remove the bones. I let it sit in the fridge overnight. The next day I scrape off most of the fat then freeze it.

I'll try the turmeric and green chili power—thanks for the tip, SweetB.

Oh and talking about homemade broths-- I love bone broth. Anyone else?

My last batch was made out of chicken feet-- they work wonders for the gelatin part. I normally just add feet, carrots, onion, garlic, rosemary, and water in the crock-- cook for 24 hours. Its awesome.

I'll do the same for beef bones.
