10-12drops essential oil - I like using kid safe I like using kid safe Germ Destroyer (1% dilution for children under 2/pregnancy/or breastfeeding). For normal adults that are not pregnant or breastfeeding, a thieves-like blend (I use Germ Fighter) would also work well, or lavender for a calming effect.
Instructions
In a blender or food processor, add coconut oil (partially melted works best) and garlic cloves and blend until completely completely smooth - about 2-3 minutes. Pour into container and mix in essential oils. Cover and store in the fridge.
To use:Every few hours, apply to back or chest and the bottoms of feet until symptoms resolve. I like to place socks on after applying to feet. Obviously, if symptoms do not improve, take your child to the doctor.
Notes
Coconut oil hardens during refrigeration. Just use a spoon to scrape out some of the salve when you are about to apply it. It will then melt in your hand.
