Grapefruit Seed Extract Makes Great Herbal Medicine


Grapefruit has been making a lot of headlines lately as the latest and greatest in diet plans. Supposedly, the acidic grapefruit is supposed to dissolve fat on contact. Whether or not this is true does not diminish the benefits of this miracle herbal medicine.

Grapefruit seed extract is one of the two most powerful natural antibiotics in the world, with garlic being the other. Grapefruit seed extract is a true antibiotic which means that it is 100% effective in killing bacteria.

Grapefruit seed extract is made from the seeds, peel and leaves of the grapefruit. One of the drawbacks of Grapefruit seed extract, GSE for short, is that it is not a substance that is easily produced at home. However one of the biggest benefits of GSE is that it is not only useful as an herbal medicine, it is also shown to be more effective (100%) at cleaning hospital environments than the commercial products (97%) used in most facilities.

GSE has been shown to be effective in killing multiple strains of bacteria that cause some pretty devastating diseases. Staph and MRSA have been proven to be deadly, as have as have pseudomonas and mycobacterium, the bacteria that causes tuberculosis. Other bacteria that are successfully treated with GSE include Giardia, which can affect humans, as well as pets, Strep, Salmonella, Cholera, Chlamydia, Legionella (which causes Legionaire’s Disease), Herpes simplex 1, influenza, measles, as well as treating H.pylori, the organism that causes stomach ulcers.

One pleasant trend in hospitals now is the use of citrus essential oils as deodorizers. In the past they would use commercial grade air fresheners to cover the smells of the hospital, but many people have had allergies to these products, so now hospitals are using citrus essential oils to not only cover the bad smells in hospitals, but since citrus oils are also invigorating and uplifting, they help the patients feel better as well.

There are a variety of ways you can use GSE, from drinking it to using it as a nasal spray. Just remember that it must always be diluted or it can cause some damage and it should be used extremely carefully if pregnant. If you are going to drink it, be sure to mix it with citrus juice as it is extremely bitter and the only thing that will cover the taste is citrus juice.
