\r\n \r\n on way to store...need.more.garlic.
\n
\n ain\'t takin NO chances. the soup sounds delish. For I really love garlic. I worry not about stinky mouth. Rather be stinky with garlic, then germy. heehee
\n
\n
\nThank you again Kind2.\r\n

[happy2bhere]

\r\n \r\n Made the soup. Added a bit too much ginger. It was NOT good.
\n
\nBurned throat.
\n
\nNext time, I will cut the recipe in half and use ginger sparingly, I think.
\n
\nHad to pitch. Just too hot. Might have made a good marinade for hot n spicy wings?\r\n

\r\n \r\n Too bad Happy2, you couldn\'t have weakened it with water or something?\r\n

[happy2bhere]

\r\n \r\n Tried.
\n
\n It looked and smelled great. Just too hot.
\n
\nBut I am considering adding a TON of garlic, onions and a few other goodies to some type of salsa or something like that.
\n
\nRaw is always better, right?\r\n

[kind2creatures]

\r\n \r\n Raw is always better, IMO.\r\n

[ozzie]

\r\n \r\n Sounds good Kind2creatures, and worth a try next time I get a flu.\r\n

\r\n \r\n How come every time I turn around somebody is trying to get me to take a flu shot? It\'s like they\'re forcing people now and not letting them think for themselves. I love garlic, my wife cooks with it a lot and would rather take that to help with the flu and colds.\r\n

\r\n \r\n It means money in someone\'s bank account. That\'s all.
\n
\n There is alot of slick ad men trying to keep their big bucks coming in. That is all this is - MORE MONEY FOR THE MAKERS. I bet they would even tell lies!
\n
\nThe longer they tell the lies, the more people will begin to believe.
\n
\nAsk someone considering the shot, if they know what\'s in it? How does it bring about immunity? What happens if it doesn\'t?
\n
\nAsk them if they asked whoever is giving the shot, if they can still get the flu?
\n
\nDo they really understand there could be serious damage later on?

\n6.) There is mounting evidence that flu shots can cause Alzheimer’s disease. One report shows that people who received the flu vaccine each year for 3 to 5 years had a 10-fold greater chance of developing Alzheimer’s disease than people who did not have any flu shots. Also with age the immune system weakens, thus lowering your ability to fight off infections. Introducing the flu virus in the bodies of elderly could have dangerous consequences.\r\n \r\n

\n Incomplete Protection Against Intended Targets
\n You may not even get protection against the intended virus. Why? First, because viruses change over time. The piece that was in the vaccine may not \'look\' the same (chemically) as the real thing (months later, after all!). Second, the vaccine may not have given you enough stimulation to fight off the disease.
\n Let\'s review what\'s happened so far: the inactivated virus piece has found a chemical match in your body. This causes an immune response, so your body has started to gear up its production of antibodies and similar markers on cells that can mark the virus for destruction or kill it outright. It\'s like calling up an army for a battle. Will your body win the fight when the real virus comes to call? Yes, if you have enough defenses built up.
\n
\nHowever, you will still get the flu if:
\n

• your body isn\'t fast enough producing a response
  • get the vaccine and get exposed to the flu too soon (less than 2 weeks)
  \n
  • too much time between vaccination and exposure (loses its effectiveness over time)
  \n
\n
• you don\'t produce enough of a response
  • overwhelmed by exposure to a high level of the virus
  \n
  • your body couldn\'t recognize the initial virus piece (determined by genetics)
  \n
  • your body didn\'t make enough antibodies/cells (common in older people or people with suppressed immune systems)
  \n
\n
• the virus has changed beyond your body\'s ability to recognize it
\n
• the part of the virus that was in the vaccine can\'t be detected by the body in the intact virus

Any one know those little facts?\r\n

I love garlic for cooking, and I've warded off a few colds over the years by eating a few cloves of garlic raw. Here's a powerful garlic soup recipe that looks like it would be good to have around during cold and flu season...

Garlic Soup Made With 52 Cloves of Garlic Can Defeat Colds, Flu and Even Norovirus

Forget the flu shot. A soup based on more than 50 cloves of garlic, onions, thyme and lemon will destroy almost any virus that enters its path including colds, flu and even norovirus.

As we sneeze and cough our way through these dark months of contagious nasties, garlic is being hailed for its powers to halt viruses in their tracks.

It has gained its reputation as a virus buster thanks to one of its chemical constituents, allicin.

A recent and significant finding from Washington State University shows that garlic is 100 times more effective than two popular antibiotics at fighting disease causing bacteria commonly responsible for foodborne illness.

When the garlic is crushed, alliin becomes allicin. Research shows that allicin helps lower cholesterol and blood pressure and also helps prevents blood clots.

Garlic can also reduce the risk of developing atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). Compounds in this familiar bulb kill many organisms, including bacteria and viruses that cause earaches, flu and colds.

Research indicates that garlic is also effective against digestive ailments and diarrhea. What's more, further studies suggest that this common and familiar herb may help prevent the onset of cancers.

'This chemical has been known for a long time for its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal powers,' says Helen Bond, a Derbyshire-based consultant dietitian and spokeswoman for the British Dietetic Association.
