As a Certified Therapeutic Nutritionist, I often get asked: “What’s a safe, natural alternative to antibiotics for kids?”

 

Let me share a personal experience. When my son was just over a year old, he developed a bacterial infection. We went to the clinic, ran the necessary tests, and he was prescribed antibiotics. However, shortly after, I noticed a recurring pattern—we were constantly managing new infections.

Through my professional knowledge of therapeutic nutrition, I understood that while antibiotics may be necessary in certain cases, long-term reliance can disrupt the body’s microbiome, especially in children. That’s when I turned to nature’s pharmacy—using food as medicine.

Taste the Goodness: EL Blends All-Natural Cold-Pressed Juices

 

For over two years now, I’ve supported my child’s immune system with this powerful natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory blend, and we haven’t had another bacterial infection since.

 

Here’s my trusted recipe:

• 1 clove of garlic (natural antibiotic)
• ½ inch fresh turmeric root (potent anti-inflammatory)
• A pinch of black pepper (enhances turmeric absorption)
• Juice of 1 fresh lime
• 750ml of clean water

Instructions:

Blend all ingredients until smooth. Strain, bottle, and refrigerate.

Dosage:

Children: 1 small shot (about 20–30ml), 3 times a week

Adults: 2 small shots, 3 times a week

 

This simple blend has made a world of difference in our immune health. Remember, consistent nourishment builds lasting resilience.

To your child’s vibrant health.
