The mucous membranes will be inflamed and extremely tender, so care must be taken when using GSE as a nasal douche. Shake thoroughly and spray gently into the nose, gradually inhaling into the deeper sinuses. If a burning sensation occurs, dilute with equal amounts of distilled water. On the other hand, if too mild, add one or two drops additional GSE, and shake thoroughly. Here's a testamonial from a long-time sufferer.
Doctors are most concerned when the cause is B hemolytic strep .
While the bacteria itself poses only a minor threat to the host, it is the allergic reaction to immune complexes created by the body to fight the germ that can cause scarlet fever, rheumatic heart disease, and glomerular nephritis. Thoroughly mix 15 to 20 drops of NutriBiotic GSE liquid, or two tablets, pulverized, into 6 to 8 ounces water or diluted juice. Gargle deep in the throat before swallowing. Swallowing the solution insures that areas of the throat inaccessible to gargling are reached and also helps treat the infection systemically. For small children, mix one or two drops into any heavy syrup, and spoon it in.
