I need some ideas from everyone.
I'm in a situation of has no access of refrigerator or a juicer . Is there any way I can make this 5 ingredient tonic without them in small quantities? I'm a taxi driver and constantly driving . Yesterday, I just walked towards to the store and I felt dizzy and my calves are in pains just by waking 300 ft!! I felt this isn't a good sign at all and decided to make this tonic but because I'm constantly driving away from my place basically has no access of refrigerator or the juicer. I was thinking if I can make this in a very small portion that would be wonderful.

You should have your potassium and magnesium levels checked via blood test.

Hello, EarthClinic. It's years long that I enjoy God sent help from the incredible community, doing from time to time my part. It's first time that I request for help, as it's first time I feel helpless.
My husband ( 67 y/o) has developed HBP in the last 2 months, combined with low heart beat rate (55-57), which manifests at night only. He also has sort of heart burn and hard breath at night and I can't watch him suffering so much. Cayenne helps to some extent to neutralise the problem but to fight of the HBP and Bradicardia I've chosen the wonderful 5 MIX.
After 1 day of taking both 5 mix and cayenne he said he has problem with hearing, by the end of the day the problem nearly subsided, but next day, after taking next portion of 5 MIX he developed sort of double sound syndrome ( like when they change the voice of whistleblower during interview, when he doesn't want to be recognised).
Should he stop with the 5 Mix or is it a detox effect and we should persist? Has anybody had that sort of experience or similar? I just need advice of a rational mind, since it's first time the problem doesn't have simple and quick solution. Thank You and God Bless you all.

Today I went to Walmart and purchased a juicer for $49, and the ingredients to make a batch. I overbought as I have lots left over. The garlic juiced amazingly well, as did the ginger root. I juiced the whole lemon, peel and all. My 10 year old daughter helped break up the cloves of garlic. BTW, about 9 normal sized bulbs made 2/3 cup of garlic juice. I did not cook the mixture, added the honey directly to the juice, and flipped the bottle around for a couple of minutes to mix.
I know we're supposed to take it in the morning but I had to taste it. First thoughts.... Wow, this stuff really burns, like 151 going down... lol. The honey makes it cling to your throat so you feel it from your tongue to your belly. Kind of a head rush too. I wanted to chase it with some water but didn't, and after a few minutes it wasn't so bad. The taste isn't really bad, but the ginger really kicks. The aftertaste of the garlic lingers for quite a while though. I will see how I do tomorrow and perhaps follow up if I can but I will give this a try. Sure beats being put through the medical wringer if it can be avoided.

Second day of morning dose. The burn is not so bad once the juice is cooled in the fridge. Initial slight stomach cramps after ingestion are lessened from yesterday. I still have to sit down to take it as it causes some discomfort for about 1-2 minutes after. I can tell this is powerful stuff.
Yesterday I seemed to have a bit more energy throughout the day. I will post again next week.

Ok, it's been over a week and I can say the discomfort from the mix is mostly gone. Now it's just the taste lols. I've been taking 1 tablespoon in the morning and when I get home from work. When I first started on this the discomfort felt like it was from my heart reacting but it may have been heartburn from the mix. Anyway, I don't have to sit down to take this anymore. I haven't had a chance to do some treadmill work however I will try that soon. It would be interesting to see if that nauseous feeling continues a few hours after exercise.

That sounds good. Do you simmer it too? Can we take it raw? I don't understand why we need to use the heat.

His skin has improved considerably. His face is much slimmer. His waist is slimmer. And I used to be able to feel his heart pounding when I put my hand under his left rib cage, now it feels nearly normal and the arrhythmia is almost undetectable. He snores much quieter and doesn't stop breathing as much as he used to.
He had very high blood pressure, 240/90 or some such about a year ago. He said it was down to 180/something a few months ago. He has been using the remedy on and off with some variation for 10 months.
Thank you EarthClinic and thank you to the people who posted the remedy!

By juicing we have separated the nutrients out from the pulp excellent! The only thing we are possibly doing in the concentration in concentrating the minerals. If you think we are making a 4 -1 concentration I believe we are wrong, 4-1 concentration means that exact nutritional profile would be the same as the 4 in the1. This I can guarantee is not happening, so many of these nutrients are going to get destroyed by the heat, that's a FACT.
Herbal Companies make extract of ginger, garlic, etc, by first soaking the herb in alcohol or water for a period of time, and then pressing the ingredients out of the herb, some use over 1 million pounds of pressure to make the concentrate. NO HEATING! STORY - Man gets married see his wife cutting the ends off of the pot roast, he asks his wife, why are you cutting the ends off the pot roast? She says with a strong voice, that's the way my mother did it ask her. So the next time the family is together at the holidays he asks his new mother in law why do you cut off the ends of the pot roast? Mother in law say snaps, I don't know ask my mother, so he goes over to the grandmother and tells the story to the grandmother and she laughs and says, the reason I cut off the ends of the pot roast is because I didn't have a pan big enough to cook it in. I think the ingredients will help clean up the arteries and blood pressure, I believe it would be better formula without cooking and consuming 8 tablespoons of the extracted juice. Linus Pauling had Dr Rath spend 15 years researching why people get heart disease, and his answer was Heart Disease is really scurvy of the heart! Vitamin C deficiency, you body can not make 1 drop of vitamin C, we no longer have in our body's the enzyme to make vitamin C, the animal kingdom doesn't get heart disease/strokes because they can make their own vitamin C, a 65 lb goat can make 10,000 mg of vitamin C a day, put that goat under stress and he can make over 100,000 mg. Yo and I can't make a drop. Sharks don't get cancer, sharks product over 400,000 mg of vitamin C, in fact if you did a tissue sample of a shark you can't tell the age from a young shark or an old shark, Incrediable! Cooking the Lemon juice has destroyed the vitamin C. What is left I don't have the time/money to have the concentrate analyzed.
QUESTION IS WHAT AM I missing in the cooking of these ingredients???????

Severe heart pain that would not go away the whole day. Drank a third of a glass of this juice right away and 3 tablespoons thrice a day after that( the juice was lying around for a year that a thoughtful brother had ordered for me mainly because he knew I had no insurance and had high blood pressure! ) and the pain gradually disappeared in three-four days. Would like to mention that I felt a warm burning but not uncomfortable feeling in the region of the heart while taking this wonderful concoction and pressure dropped from 170/90 to 130/85.
This works!
After a crisis, a tablespoon or two as a preventive would be prudent along with healthy portion controlled eating, 20 minutes of brisk walking(walking ups your master molecule -glutathione! ) and regular visits to a good holistic cardiologist.
B: As for the enzymes, it is important to take them without any acidosis issues in the gut or body and on an empty stomach preferably 30-60 min prior to meal. A 6 month course should clear out any scar tissue in the arteries.
As for the herbs, Hawthorn berries and Cayenne should be added to your list as they are very important for heart, lungs, and arteries.
You may also consider a vascular cleanse with the herbs White Oak bark, Horse Chestnut, Butcher's Broom.
Thanks for your response. I have been taking the enzymes on an empty stomach. as I said I have been taking them for close to a year. Should I discontinue taking them? And I have been reading up on the lemon, garlic cure. Is there any reason why I should not try this?
As for the enzymes, a minimum dose could be taken daily for the entire lifespan, but for disease states one would need to take "therapeutic doses" until recovery.
Yes, do the herbal circulatory cleanses as suggested. For a strong heart, take Magnesium Carnitine, and CoQ10.

Papajirao, in India, and everywhere, people use arjuna bark for heart problems, high blood pressure, overweight and so on. Please do an internet search. I just learned about this herb yesterday, and I am researching for my own heart problems. It looks amazing, and the arjuna supplements are made in India from the bark of a tree that grows there. When I searched Google with "arjuna powder or extracts?" I saw that indiamart sells it.

The combination of all five ingredients is super effective if made properly and followed diligently.
I make this combination for family friends suffering from high cholesterol problems.
To make approx two liters of medicine....
- Grind 500/600 grams of Ginger
- 500/600 grams of Garlic, use a little water if required to make a fine paste.
- 1 kilogram Lemon to make fresh lemon juice.
- 600 ml of ACV (Apple cider vinegar)
- and atleast 1 kilogram of raw honey.
Mix all four contents except honey in a utensil with a thick bottom and put on high flame for 5 minutes but keep stirring continuously without stopping. then lower the flame to a little less than medium and stir for 15 minutes. Finally increase the flame to high again and stir for 5 minutes continuously and then remove the utensil from the flame and let the mixture cool down.
Once the mixture is cool add all the honey and mix well. Store it in a pet bottle and keep it in the fridge.
Before you start this dose, get a cholesterol test done for future reference.
Dosage and Method
Every morning between 5 am to 7 am absolutely empty stomach...not even water
3 teaspoons of the mixture...you can go back to sleep if you need to.
First 3-4 days you may feel uneasy or maybe have a bad stomach...but don't worry.
After the first 7 days, start going for brisk walk for 20 minutes or a treadmill jog for 10 minutes at 25 KMPH. Follow this schedule for next 23 days, then get a cholesterol test done once again and check. The last person I gave this medicine...Bad cholesterol dropped from 254 to 172 in 35 days.
My best wishes to you all.
This mixture is a good "cleaner" for accumulated toxins & waste that collect in the arteries. CoQ10 may help prevent the clogging but would do little for clearing. CoQ10 is a primary energy source for much of the cells in the body and particularly fuel the heart muscle. CoQ10 works best in combination w/ Selenium and Full Spectrum Vit-E. CoQ10 is not well absorbed taken orally so the best is Liposomal CoQ10 or CoQ10 conjugated w/ Glutathione.

All of the ingredients for the 5 Mix make sense to me for heart health - except I do not understand why it must be heated? Wouldn't heat destroy many of the healthy nutrients? What if the ingredients were combined then refrigerated? I look forward to a better understanding of the process - thanks!

I've heard it explained in other recipes that are meant to keep more than a couple of days, that the enzymes present in fresh vegetables are prone to "digest" themselves in storage--so there may be color loss, flavor degradation, further nutrient loss--especially problematic where particular fragile nutrients are the whole point. It's why blanching--just to the point of brightening the color--actually makes all the difference in freezing and preserving.
Also, some bacteria present may become a real problem if given any time to get rolling in storage. The brief heating also makes certain nutrients more bioavailable.

My diastolic blood pressure has been high after I got out of the hospital from an infection. I used ACV, garlic, lemon, vitamin e and I started exercising. However, I noticed my diet has something to do with it too. If I eat a lot of fat, over 30 grams and processed sugary stuff it will get worse. So last weeks diastolic was as high as 101 and today it was 116/89!!!! I still have tachycardia of 108 but I'm taking cayenne pepper for it.
Some folks have healed their crimped arteries after a year of going low fat and plant based .

Hi Madhan - After taking the mix, did you manage to check to what extent the blocks has cleared?
5-Ingredient Heart Tonic
He progressively grew WORSE (he developed serious shortness of breath, even when only sitting or lying and today he decided to go to hospital emergency room after he almost stopped breathing few times at night
Why? I don't think 5 mix caused it but it could be very long and severe Herxheimer reaction , (he is a chemist and has mercury fillings...).
I feel bad about pushing natural remedies at him... For me they always work but I have faith in them and his belief is very weak.

Hi Anna,
I am so sorry to hear about your husband. I read your posts today about how your husband has been taking the 5 Mix Remedy for Heart Disease Prevention: ginger, garlic, lime, honey and apple cider vinegar and is now getting his heart checked out in the ER.
I had similar symptoms as your husband from taking frequent doses of apple cider vinegar. I too ended up in the ER getting my heart checked on two occasions about 5 years ago. Nothing was wrong, but it took me months to figure out it was apple cider vinegar causing severe anxiety attacks, heart palpitations and shortness of breath. It got quite scary. So if this were me, I would stop drinking apple cider vinegar immediately.
I believe the ACV can rapidly deplete magnesium and potassium.
I still drink ACV and baking soda a few times a week (it's one of my favorite remedies on EC), but supplement it with magnesium and potassium once a day and always within a few hours of drinking ACV.
Hope this helps. Please let us know how he is doing. Deirdre

Dear Pradeep, I believe this remedy will be equally effective without the honey.
Hi Pradeep,
Honey is mixed only to make it palatable otherwise it may be rather difficult for one to take. What I would suggest you is that make it without the honey and then if it tastes offensive then you can add minimum honey as per your requirement and then take it. That much honey is not going to act adversely.
Good Luck, Baldev

Now I'm 62 and still don't take any pills. I am healthier than many 40 year old's. I can walk a couple of hours a day ( at one stretch) and not get exhausted. I've been taking the 5 mix ( ginger, garlic, lime, honey, ACV) since I was 56. Two months at a stretch. Then a break of a month then another 2 months of 5 mix etc.
Yesterday another friend who started taking it just under two months ago told me his test results. He almost had a major heart attack with over 80 % multiple blocks as shown in his angiogram. He refused to have a stent or have any other invasive solution. He started taking the 5 mix three times a day. His latest angiogram showed less than 50% blocks. His earlier EF ( Ejection factor : shows how well the heart is pumping) was 40% which is not good at all. Now it is 50%! 55% and above is considered to be an average ( and safe) level . He'll get there soon. He is already back at the factory where he is working normally! There are many more I can tell you, but to all those who are scoffing at this 5 mix please continue to do so. For the others who want to get better , start on it immediately. You'll never regret it! I don't take a single pill since 2008 and neither does my friend who recovered recently!
It's better that all of you over 40 start on this 5 mix to clean out your arteries as good blood flow leads to good oxygen distribution and will keep illnesses at bay. Don't wait for a problem to surface! Please note that the angiogram shows wider arteries after several months! That's because the artery walls regain their elasticity and become ( naturally ) wider than constricted older arteries.
You can also wait for 100 to 200 years after they publish research reports that this method works. Otherwise believe in the knowledge of those who lived long before us and the results that today's users report. It is after all your life. You can do what you want with it! 5mix yourself and enjoy the rest of your life like you haven't been able to do recently!
Cheers to the Good Lord from where all the ingredients came! Use them!
