Or you can you 1 drop of Young Living (YL) Black Pepper Essential Oil 1-2 TBSP of virgin coconut oil (totally optional) (antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal as well)(will be a liquid at 76 degrees and above) 5 Drops of YL Thieves Oil   (optional) adding ground cinnamon or YL Cinnamon Oil increases the overall power of this mixture! Directions: Carefully stir turmeric and black pepper and Thieves oil (and optional cinnamon) into 4 oz. (20 tsp.) of Manuka honey, mix well and place the Golden Honey mixture in a glass container with lid. You can make more or less depending on your needs by following this conversion table. Dosage: With the first symptoms of colds and flu: Day 1 – Take ½ tsp. every hour during the day. Day 2 – Take ½ tsp. every two hours during the day. Day 3 – Take ½ tsp. three times a day.
