 There are lots of colds & sniffles here in lovely Todmorden town.... 

 Time to call upon ....

                       Garlic Power.......

Garlic is a powerful medicine valued for thousands of years. The Egyptians used its energy giving properties and the Greeks and Romans considered it to be the elixir of youth. Ayurvedic doctors in the 1st century AD in India prescribed Garlic for the heart.
Garlic is a truly wonderful remedy for infections, having antibacterial, antiviral, anti parasitic and anti fungal properties, so a good all-rounder for treating colds and flu and lots of other nasties..... and who cares if some people think its smelly....We Bears lOve it...  its goOd for you.....

Fresh Turmeric


Turmeric is a perennial herb of the ginger family. The active constituent known as curcumin has been shown to protect against free radical damage to dna. Curcumin reduces inflammation by lowering histamine levels and by increasing production of natural cortisone by the adrenal glands. Turmeric has a long list of traditional medicinal uses and is a favourite among herbalists due to its effectiveness as an anti-inflammatory, used to treat conditions such as arthritis, injury, asthma, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, skin disorders, elevated cholesterol, liver disease and cancer.
