Many of my colleagues attracted malaria, even cerebral, but I never caught anything. The house keeper of my landlord visited me one evening shivering from malaria fever, he begged me for malaria medicine. I gave him a jar and told him to take 4 capsules 4 times a day. Two days after he came back, completely well praising the olive leaf extract as the best malaria medicine he ever had used..&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, I believe in changing my regimen periodically, so the fungus, virus and bacteria cannot build up an immunity. &amp;nbsp;I switch off to using hydrogen peroxide as a gargle when brushing my teeth, and as a disinfectant for my toothbrush, so that I do not hit myself with a bacteria laden toothbrush when I brush the next day. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I also switch off to oregano oil when treating athletes feet, and then dealing with ear infections as ear drops. &amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tea tree oil is also a great alternative when dealing with athletes feet, and it works well with elbow and knee dryness rashes, as a alternative to olive leaf drops.&lt;/p&gt;

It is very bitter, but a whole dropperful added three times a day to sweet tea, masks most of the bitterness. My 12 year old son knows first hand how effective it is, and will willingly go and help himself when he doesn't feel good. We also use Colloidal Silver in conjunction with it. I can highly recommend Utopia Silver for your silver source, and Herbal Healer for your Olive Leaf. I have personally cured strep throat using nothing but Olive Leaf! And it did so overnight. The next morning I had no fever, no sore throat or cough. I continued using for three days to make sure it was all gone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By the way, Utopia Silver has been in &amp;nbsp;a five year battle with the FDA. The FDA is now leaving them alone. Not once did they give in, and most importantly they did not hire a lawyer. Be sure and check out the site to learn why not hiring a lawyer was most important in winning this battle!&lt;/p&gt;
