How to cure ear infections naturally and quickly

Your child has an ear infection and is in pain. There is no need to panic. When common allergens (dairy, wheat, sugar and refined carbohydrates, peanuts, corn and eggs) are avoided, more times than not, the amount of fluid in the ears decreases significantly, infection heals and hearing improves. A fast-acting natural remedy: Mix a couple of drops of olive oil with some pureed garlic (size of a pea) and put it in your child's ear, securing it with a little bit of cotton. This anti-inflammatory solution penetrates the eardrum, settles the pain, kills infection and works really well overnight. Remember garlic is a natural antibiotic!
