对抗感冒的最佳药方 - 姜黄生姜饮 Turmeric Ginger Shots
English Text is further down.
姜黄（turmeric）以含有姜黄素（curcumin）而出名，姜黄素是一种具有抗炎作用的植物化学物。姜黄对于红斑狼疮等状况特别有效，因为即使在病原体不再存在时（引起红斑狼疮的病毒是EB病毒），身体依然处于习惯性的炎症反应模式中。然而，为了打破这个习惯性反应，身体需要盟友的帮助。姜黄是最佳选择，姜黄素中天然且高度有效的甾体化合物和其他有益元素是平息身体对病原体过度炎症反应的关键。
姜黄对于从神经到关节到大脑的任何身体炎症和疼痛都非常有帮助，是炎症和疼痛的终极解药。在去除炎症的同时，姜黄包含的强效化合物能够增强需要加强血液循环的身体部位的血液供应，因此对于患有慢性组胺反应（chronic histamine reaction）、或由于肝脏功能不佳导致血液毒性、或血液循环不佳的人特别有帮助。姜黄所含的锰与姜黄素相结合，对心血管系统特别有益：可降低坏胆固醇、提升好的胆固醇、抑制肿瘤和囊肿，并可预防几乎任何类型的癌症，尤其是皮肤癌。此外，锰可激活姜黄素从身体中排出有毒重金属的能力。
大蒜是世界上最古老的药物之一，也是一种超级强大的香料，可以抵御各种疾病：含有极高量的维生素和矿物质，诸如维生素C、B6以及硒、钙、铜和铁等矿物质。大蒜有极其强大的抗生素、抗真菌、抗癌和抗病毒特性。一瓣切碎的大蒜含有相当于十万单位青霉素所包含的抗生素，且已被证明比青霉素和四环素能更有效地抑制某些病毒。大蒜还含有大蒜素的化合物，能够通过抑制肝细胞内的HMG-CoA还原酶，阻碍血管中形成血小板凝块，从而帮助显著降低胆固醇和血压。
生姜有助于消化和吸收、预防感冒、流感、晕车和眩晕。生姜还可以帮助缓解例假痉挛、恶心、烧心、偏头痛、喉咙痛、疲惫、疲劳、便秘、流感和食物中毒。生姜所含的强效抗炎化合物姜酚是一种强效的止痛药，对于患有关节、肌肉和神经疼痛的人尤其有益。生姜具有令人难以置信的增强免疫系统并对抗病原体的能力（诸如对抗大肠杆菌、葡萄球菌感染和白色念珠菌）。
橙子或柑橘有助于预防癌症、降低高血压、抵御病毒感染、缓解便秘、保持骨骼和牙齿强壮、防止肾结石和黄斑退化。橙子或柑橘所含的碱性矿物盐可以逆转并预防体内酸中毒（毒性过高）。同时，橙子和柑橘对消化道也很有效，并通过增强蠕动作用清理结肠中各种垃圾和毒素。橙子和柑橘含有大量的谷胱甘肽，这对于眼睛和肺部健康至关重要，因此非常适合呼吸系统疾病，诸如哮喘、支气管炎、心血管疾病、高血压和慢性阻塞性肺病。橙子和柑橘因为具有抗菌能力，因此能够净化并强健身体所有器官。

姜黄生姜饮常见问题解答：
1. 是否需要一口气喝完？
可以一口气喝完，或者慢慢喝完。
2．每周可以喝几次
如果愿意，可以每天饮用。
3.可以将其放在冰箱里吗？
最好立即饮用以获得最大的功效。
4. 是否可以加入黑胡椒帮助姜黄的吸收？
这种流行的看法认为需要加入黑胡椒帮助姜黄吸收是没有必要的。
5. 可以使用姜黄或生姜粉替代吗？
在这个方子中，需要使用新鲜的成分。
6. 可否通过食物搅拌机粉碎上述元素，是否有一样的功效？
这样的效果不如榨汁的效果来的好，虽然这种方式也有其好处。如果在搅拌打碎之后，可以通过滤网等过滤出汁再喝是比较好的方式。
7.是否需要使用有机原料？
有机或者非有机的原料都可以。
8. 是否可以使用比上述配方更少的大蒜、姜黄或生姜？
可以。
9. 生姜和姜黄需要去皮吗？
不需要，虽然可以选择去皮。如果不去皮，请好好清洗表面。
10. 怀孕或哺乳期间可以服用吗？
可以，这是安全的。
11. 可以不使用大蒜吗？
可以，虽然这种方式疗愈效果会有不同，但依然非常具有疗效。
12. 可以使用橙汁以外的水果吗？
可以尝试苹果汁，味道会不同，但仍然有疗效。
13. 大蒜会杀灭好细菌吗？
与一些错误的理论恰恰相反，大蒜完全不会杀死肠道中的有益细菌。它只会杀死坏菌群。对于人体有害的无论是革兰氏阳性(gram-positive)或革兰氏阴性（gram-negative）的细菌都是以正频率运行（不要与革兰氏阳性、阴性混淆，革兰氏阳性阴性与电荷无关），而对人体有益的细菌（无论它们是革兰氏阴性还是革兰氏阳性）都以负频率运行。人体运行的频率是负频率（这里的负频率不是指负面、不利的能量，与此无关）。这种人体和有益菌群运行的负频率是好事，是我们接地的来源，而坏菌、蠕虫和其他寄生虫、真菌和病毒都是带正电荷的。当它们在我们体内安营扎寨后，会耗尽我们的“电量”。大蒜的抗病原性特性是正电荷的，因此就类似于便衣警察伪装成敌人一样潜入敌营，敌人很容易开门接纳它，从而得以消灭敌人。
请放心，大蒜不会破坏任何不应该被破坏的东西，它完全不会伤害我们，相反，它可以对抗感冒、流感、链球菌感染、引起肺炎的细菌、以及引起癌症的病毒，为我们提供强大的免疫力支持。
Turmeric Ginger Shots
Turmeric is famous for containing curcumin, a phytochemical with anti-inflammatory properties, turmeric is a particular asset for conditions such as lupus, in which the body can get stuck in a habitual cycle of reaction, even after the invader (in the case of lupus, the Epstein-Barr virus) is no longer present. Sometimes, though, once a cycle gets started, the body needs an ally to come in and break the pattern. Turmeric is ideal for this job, because it contains natural and very beneficial steroidal compounds from the curcumin as well as other aspects of the turmeric that are critical to calm down outsized inflammatory responses to pathogens.
Turmeric is great for anything in the body that’s inflamed and causing pain, from nerves to joints to the brain. Turmeric is the ultimate antidote. At the same time that it attends to inflammation, turmeric’s powerful agents and compounds increase blood supply to areas of the body that need enhanced circulation, which makes this an ideal spice for those who have chronic histamine reactions, or toxic blood due to a sluggish liver or poor circulation. Turmeric’s high level of manganese combined with its curcumin make it great for the cardiovascular system—it lowers bad cholesterol, raises good cholesterol, helps inhibit tumors and cysts, and can prevent virtually any type of cancer, especially skin cancers. Plus, the manganese activates curcumin’s ability to extract toxic heavy metals from your system.
Garlic is one of the world’s oldest medicines and is an incredibly potent spice that can ward off a variety of illnesses and diseases. It has amazingly high levels of vitamins and minerals including vitamin C and B-6 and minerals such as selenium, calcium, copper, and iron. Garlic also contains very strong antibiotic, anti-fungal, anti-cancer, and anti-viral properties. One raw crushed clove of garlic contains the antibiotic equivalent of 100,000 units of penicillin and has been proven to be more effective than both penicillin and tetracycline in suppressing certain types of disease carrying agents. Garlic contains a compound called allicin which has been shown to help significantly lower cholesterol and blood pressure by inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme within the liver cells and blocking platelet clot formation in the blood vessels.
Ginger is known to greatly aid in digestion and assimilation and is widely regarded to help prevent colds, flu, motion sickness, and vertigo. Ginger can also help to alleviate menstrual cramps, nausea, heartburn, migraines, sore throats, exhaustion, fatigue, and constipation and it is great in providing relief from the stomach flu and food poisoning. Ginger also contains potent anti-inflammatory compounds called gingerols and is a powerful painkiller which makes it especially beneficial for those who suffer with joint, muscle, and nerve pain. Ginger has incredible immune-boosting and germ fighting abilities and has even been shown to help provide protection and relief from E.coli, Staph infections, and Candida albicans.
Oranges have been known to help prevent cancer, lower high blood pressure, fight off viral infections, relieve constipation, keep bones and teeth strong, prevent kidney stones and macular degeneration. Oranges are rich in lime and alkaline salts that help to counteract and prevent acidosis in the body. They are also excellent for the digestive tract and help to remove toxic debris from the colon through enhanced peristaltic action. Oranges contain a significant amount of glutathione which is critical for healthy eye and lung function. Oranges are very good for respiratory problems such as asthma or bronchitis and cardiovascular issues such as hypertension and COPD. Oranges act as an internal antiseptic to the body and have the ability to purify and strengthen all the organs in the body.

Turmeric-Ginger Shots FAQ
Can I sip the juice, or do I need to drink it in one shot?
You can drink it however you prefer.
How many times a week can I drink these shots?
You can take it daily if you’d like.
Can I keep the juice in the fridge?
It’s best to drink it immediately after preparing it for the greatest benefits.
Should I add black pepper for proper turmeric absorption?
No, contrary to popular belief black pepper is not necessary.
Would turmeric or ginger powder work instead of the fresh root?
For this recipe they each need to be the fresh root.
Will this work the same way if I blend the ingredients in a blender?
It won’t have the same therapeutic benefits but it will still have many. If you do blend them, you can then strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer, cheesecloth or nut milk bag, discard the pulp and drink the juice.
What juicer do you recommend?
Greenstar Juicer, Omega Juicer, and Aicok Juicer are all great depending on your budget, but any juicer will work.
Do the ingredients need to be organic?
Organic ingredients are ideal but you can also use conventional. Can I use less garlic, turmeric or ginger than the recipe calls for?
Yes, you can.
Should I peel the ginger and turmeric?
No, it’s not necessary to peel them. It’s your choice. Just be sure to wash them well if you don’t peel them.
Is it ok to take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Yes it’s fine to take in both cases.Can I exclude the garlic?
Yes, you can exclude the garlic. It won’t have exactly the same healing properties but it will still be incredibly beneficial.
Can I use something other than oranges?
Yes, you could try some apple juice if you wish. It won’t taste the same but it will still be very healing.
Does garlic kill off good bacteria?
Contrary to some mistaken theories, garlic does not kill productive bacteria in the intestinal tract. It only kills unproductive bacteria, which runs on a positive frequency. Don’t confuse this with the term gram-positive, which doesn’t actually refer to electrical charge. Both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria that are harmful to humans run on a positive frequency. On the other hand, productive, beneficial bacteria (regardless of whether they’re gram-negative or gram-positive) run on a negative frequency, the same frequency that humans run on. Not to be mistaken for negative, unfavorable energy, this negative charge is a good thing; it’s our source of grounding. Unproductive bacteria, worms and other parasites, fungi, and viruses all run on a positive charge. When they take hold in our systems, they drain our batteries, and we lose our grounding. Then along comes garlic, which has anti-pathogenic properties that are positively charged.
This like fights like, and garlic rids us of the pathogens that were harming us. Because beneficial bacteria in our guts and other microorganisms that benefit us are negatively charged and grounded, garlic doesn’t wipe them out. While there is a certain abrasive aspect to garlic, it is abrasiveness that’s to your benefit. Rest assured that garlic does not disrupt anything that shouldn’t be disrupted—it does not hurt you. On the contrary, it’s perfect to fight colds, flus, strep throat, pneumonia-causing bacteria, and viral-related cancers.
