Dirt Lovers Should Love Grapefruit Extract

After getting attacked by a cactus in Arizona in February, OK, I walked right into when deliriously helping my husband and friend racing 24 Hour Solo's at the Old Pueblo, I got a swollen finger. I ended up taking antibiotics because I feared getting a staph infection. Had I only known about grapefruit extract, the infection probably would have never happened. Because I live in the dirt, and don't often wear gloves in the garden, this will be my new friend. Grapefruit extract is very effective at killing parasites, bacterias, etc. Below are several ideas for using grapefruit extract for the outdoor enthusiast.

**Gardeners Grapefruit extract Wash: Add 2-3 drops to your fingertips and massage into your hands and rinse.**

**Poison Oak: Apply 2 to 3 drops to your fingertip, and to the wetted affected area, leaving on for a few minutes, then rinsing thoroughly with cool water. I'm also going to make a solution up and put it in my cycling bag to use after rides. I'll judge the number of drops to use once I find a good container.

**Clean Water When in the Wilderness: Carry some grapefruit extract with you when you're in the back country, hiking, biking, etc. Water can be made safe by ten drops for each gallon of clear water. Agitate or mix vigorously and let it rest for a few minutes.

**Stomach Problems from bad water or other ailment: Add 6 drops to 5 oz glass of water. I used a minute ago was to help my husband who picked up a wierd flu or food poisoning and has a fever and major stomach discomfort. I added 6 drops of grapefruit extract to a 5 oz glass of water. He said it was bitter tasting but he slowly drank it down. I hear him vomitting right now, so maybe it's working.

**If Husband vomits in the sink, use this wash: For a general antiseptic spray for toilets, sinks, door knobs, kitchens, etc, mix 50-100 drops of grapefruit extract to any 32-oz. sprayer. If really bad, like in this case, let it sit a while and then rinse.

**Veggie Wash: Add 20 drops Grape fruit Seed extract per 32oz bottle of water with sprayer pump. Shake thoroughly and spray on any vegetables. Rinse when done.
