Working in education and being in Australia I have two choices for a vaccine if I am to continue working, AstraZeneca or the Pfizer mRNA vaccines. The Moderna mRNA is starting to become available here now too. Looking at the side effects of both vaccines, I have chosen Pfizer as the chances of major side effects are 1:1,000,000. Whereas AstraZeneca is 1:200,000. And AstraZeneca is posing a threat of major blood clotting, where Pfizer is inflammation and less likely autoimmune and neurological disorders. Having had PCOS and managing it for years, I know blood thickening and clotting in the uterus is part of the disorder so I avoided this vaccine.
I have already experienced my period being three days early, and this time I was experiencing severe pain. I have also experienced swelling in my left mammary gland, so have started including the strongest natural anti-inflammatory and blood-warming/moving foods in my diet, and thought I would share to help anyone who might feel they need it. Have two to three cups a day for as long as required. It has reduced inflammation for me in 24 hours.
Golden Milk
Makes 4 – 5 cups
Ground cinnamon: ceylon cinnamon contains antioxidants that fight free radicals.
Fresh ginger: this superfood has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-nausea, as well as anti-cancer properties. These make it as important to this golden milk as the turmeric!
Full-fat coconut milk: if used as the base of golden milk recipe, as it has MCTs. MCTs aid in faster digestion, as well as weight loss, OR/ oat milk which I think tastes much better. You can really use any type of milk.
Raw honey: you can add a bit of sweetness. Raw honey has incredible antioxidant, anti-fungal, and antibacterial properties.
The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Because ground turmeric only contains around 3% of curcumin, I use cracked black pepper in this golden milk recipe to help the body absorb it better. Turmeric is part of the Zingiberaceae family, which also includes ginger.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tsps. ground or fresh turmeric
- pinch to 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tbsp. black pepper
- 1-2 tbsps. ginger root
- 5 cups coconut milk OR/ a 1 litre carton of oat milk
- honey to taste
- 2-3 cups of water
INSTRUCTIONS
Boil the grated ginger in water or cover it. Add the milk after the ginger has had about ten minutes of brewing in the water, then add the turmeric, black pepper, and (cinnamon/cinnamon stick). Bring to high heat but do not boil vigorously. Keep brewing for another five to ten minutes. I allow it to cool and then heat it up to high before drinking. Add quality immune-boosting honey if you like, after the milk is cooled a bit for drinking. (Add the pinch of cinnamon into the cup before drinking).
