[nagdu] Ear Infection Treatments

[Raven Tolliver]

The answer to your dilemma depends on the cause. Anything you use,
conventional or nontoxic could clear up the infection temporarily if
the cause is dietary or environmental.
Coconut oil will clear up microbial overgrowth, as long as those
microbes are not continually supplied with sustenance.
Try 1/4 tsp of coconut oil in the infected ear once a day for a week,
and see where you are then. It might take two weeks.

Get the unrefined, virgin stuff, not the refined product. Nutiva is my
preferred brand. Barlean's is a good one, too.

Giving oregano capsules internally is another solution, though I'd
still do something externally to sooth any discomfort.
