by: Grandma

Hi Lynda,

A fever is actully a good thing. When the body comes down with a virus or bacterial infection the body's immune system kicks in and bring a fever to make the body's inviroment uncomfortable. But when the fever gets too high or lasts too long it's time to do something to relieve the symptoms.

Anytime any of my kids came down with a fever that got out of control I'd always get fresh garlic and make them a butter and garlic sandwich. Just chop a clove of fresh garlic and spread it over a piece of butter bread. Within an hour or two you'll notice the fever coming down. You can do this anytime and severl times to fight the infection.
