Survivalist Tip: Fending off these allergies is just a small price to pay for a happier life in the next Baktun. The Earth is trembling quietly beneath our feet, causing the pollens and dust particles to float up into our sinus cavities. While some scientists attribute this to fracking, our pets, farm animals and the insects know better. It’s really a sign warning of the upcoming shift in the Earth’s axes. That means at the start of the “New Baktun,” dust particles and pollens will be especially potent; making everyone sneezing and coughing like they’re in one big country and western bar, or the women’s room of a topless bar. One of the best all-natural remedies to quell such a vicious reaction from the immune system is apple cider vinegar.
You may think of banjos and coal mining when you think of apple cider vinegar, but it’s a proven defense against sinus and chest congestion. For centuries vinegar has been used for countless purposes: making pickles, killing weeds, cleaning coffee makers, polishing armor and dressing salads. Anything that can kill weeds and clean armor can also definitely wipe out chest congestion. Fermented with apples, however, it becomes especially potent. As I’ve discussed before, apples are already one of the healthiest foods you can consume. During the fermentation process, the sugars in both the vinegar and the apples are broken down into alcohol. And, one of the main ingredients in the final product is acetic acid. Again, if acid can peel the corrosion of your car battery, mucus in your nasal cavities doesn’t stand a chance. But, because of this high acid content, apple cider vinegar isn’t a casual beverage. It’s strictly medicinal. Don’t sit down with a warm mug of it and a box of chocolates to watch your favorite crime drama! You’ll have plenty of time for that after things settle down.
