Because it’s interesting and allows one to use something besides pharmaceuticals.
I agree with you- I have been researching natural foods and medicines and have discovered that 2 spoonful’s of cold fresh sauerkraut mixed with 2 spoons of minced garlic (from a jar) are THE BEST antibiotic I have ever used.
I had one of those nagging coughs and sore throats for almost 4 months at the beginning of the year - you know, the kind where you know you have some sort of upper respiratory infection and you should see a doctor for anti-biotics, and I started reading up on natural antibiotics one night. And took the sauerkraut and garlic.
By the next day I was feeling better and by the day after that it was totally gone..
Since then I have used it when I got a nice scratch on my arm that got all red and infected- gone the next day.
now I take it once a week for purely preventative reasons.
Beets too- I love them now because they make me feel good.
Stop eating BREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
