iodine recipe to share **added info**

My being here has been extremely hit & miss lately but want to share this recipe in case some one wants to give it a study. It's similiar to chopped onion & honey recipe for coughing, which get's stronger with each passing day but can ferment on you. Keep an eye on it.

Pickled Garlic-
One full head of garlic (peeled but not chopped)
One TBSP. 15+ Manuka honey
One verticle drops of Lugol's Iodine (5%)
Top off with 8oz of ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar)for pickling.


The garlic turned purple at first but after a month in frig all purple disappeared. Honey turned into a liquid state. This stuff is HOT! (Because I had forgotten to come back and add the vinegar). I had a cold with sore throat hit me. Took one tsp. along with eating a clove and it burned going down. Kind of felt sick afterwards. Next time I had soup with it. No more sore throat and cold was gone. Two days later (after out patient procedure) got re-infected and got sore throat again. Tried this method again and it took away the sore throat. Husband said it worked for him too. It's been a month in frig and no fermentation. I would throw it away after that because garlic makes it too hot.

Added info- I was learning how to pickle garlic and thought adding Iodine might work, and if anything be a good way to get some Iodine in my family. Didn't expect it to be so hot. I had not added the vinegar. When I saw a video on onion & honey for coughing I thought it was funny that this was somewhat similiar.

For sore throat add just one verticle drop of iodine and leave out vinegar.
