Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) has natural microbial properties to help prevent and fight off bacterial, viral, and fungal infections. Use it boost immune system!
What is GSE?
GSE is a liquid substance that is derived from the seeds, pulp, and membranes of a grapefruit. It’s the acronym for grapefruit seed extract. In the early 1970s, GSE was used in many cleaning products worldwide for its antimicrobial properties. It was later discovered that GSE could be used as a daily supplement to maintaining good immune health and curing infections.
GSE can be consumed orally by tablet. Liquid grapefruit seed extract can be used in various ways. It all depends on what type of infection you are looking to treat. For immune support, dissolve the liquid in water to consume orally. For skin infections and wounds, apply it directly to the skin. Or, inhale it through the nasal cavities for sinus infections.
Grapefruit Seed Extract Benefits
Grapefruit seed extract can be used as a natural antibiotic, anti-viral, and anti-fungal in alternative medicine. However, studies have shown it to be effective in treating other issues.
Besides microbial sicknesses, GSE may be beneficial to those with high cholesterol, skin wounds, and weakened immune system. GSE may reduce high cholesterol due to flavanoid naringin, a well-known plasma lipid reducer.
GSE has been proven to aid in the healing of wounds and scars. Besides being a great immune system builder, it helps stabilize acidic pH levels within the body. This is because of GSE antioxidant properties. Stabilizing these levels is a key component to any health rejuvenation post sickness.
Personal Use of Grapefruit Seed Extract
Over recent years I have had numerous experiences with Grapefruit Seed Extract, all times I used it GSE has been more than helpful. During the winter months when sinus and viral infections run rampant I always reach for my jar of GSE tablets to serve as a preventative measure to keeping healthy.
Most winters I have managed to survive being sick free, even with everyone around me coming down with flus and sinus infections. On the few occasions that I actually get sick, I take 250 mg of GSE for a few days and my symptoms subside rather quickly with most cases less than 48 hours.
Besides consuming GSE orally, I have used the nasal spray to prevent returning infection outbreaks. One wrestling season I came down with a staph infection that cleared with topical and oral consumption of GSE and a few other natural remedies. However, I was told that the microbe can colonize in the nasal passages so as a preventative I used the nasal spray to kill any staph that may have colonized.
I also like to use GSE around the house for cleaning purposes. Whenever I get a fresh batch of fruits and vegetables from the store I always make sure to soak the produce in a bowlful of GSE solution to prevent contracting any diseases the products may have.
GSE has been proven effective for just about all of my infections that I have contracted. But, more importantly, it has helped me survive the flu season many times as an immune system rejuvenation method. I am thankful to GSE for serving as an alternative to modern day antibiotics that are creating super bugs. Plus, it feels better knowing that I am using a solution from nature, not a laboratory, to promote good health.
