Here in Florida, where it is moist and humid all the time, mosquitos are everywhere. And they don’t like garlic.

“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” 3 John 1:2 (KJV)

For thousands of years, people have been improving their health by taking raw, cooked and supplemented garlic. As you will see in a moment, the list of it’s beneficial properties is truly astounding. But we also want to tell you about one benefit you may not be aware of – it wards off mosquito and bug bite attacks, too!

Researchers in Brazil announced Thursday the “presence of the Zika virus” in Culex mosquitoes (the common house mosquito) in the eastern city of Recife. The findings were released with a word of caution: “The obtained data will require additional studies in order to assess the potential participation of Culex in the spread of Zika and its role in the epidemic.” The Zika Virus has pa lot of people in a panic, and to protect themselves they are applied chemical-based bug repellant on their skin which is not always a good thing. Garlic can help.

Top 10 Actually Proven Health Benefits of Garlic:

For the past two decades, I have personally taken between 600 mg – 1800 mg of Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract on a daily basis. This was worked to keep my blood pressure and cholesterol naturally low, as well as bolster my immune system. And it also has kept me nearly bug bite-free in all that time as well. Here in Florida, where it is moist and humid all the time, mosquitos are everywhere. Yet I rarely get more than a bite per year because the garlic I take is also a natural insect repellant. I watch with a wry smile as people around me slather their skin with cancer-causing chemicals like DDT to keep the bugs off, urging them to use garlic instead.

If you are worried about catching a blood-borne illness from insect bites, you better start talking garlic right away. And here are some of the more traditional and well-known benefits of daily garlic supplementation:

  • Cardiovascular Benefits: Garlic’s numerous beneficial cardiovascular effects are due to not only its sulfur compounds, but also to its vitamin C, vitamin B6, selenium and manganese. Garlic is a very good source of vitamin C, the body’s primary antioxidant defender in all aqueous (water-soluble) areas, such as the bloodstream, where it protects LDL cholesterol from oxidation. Since it is the oxidized form of LDL cholesterol that initiates damage to blood vessel walls, reducing levels of oxidizing free radicals in the bloodstream can have a profound effect on preventing cardiovascular disease. Garlic’s vitamin B6 helps prevent heart disease via another mechanism: lowering levels of homocysteine. An intermediate product of an important cellular biochemical process called the methylation cycle, homocysteine can directly damage blood vessel walls. The selenium in garlic can become an important part of our body’s antioxidant system. A cofactor of glutathione peroxidase(one of the body’s most important internally produced antioxidant enzymes), selenium also works with vitamin E in a number of vital antioxidant systems. Garlic is rich not only in selenium, but also in another trace mineral, manganese, which also functions as a cofactor in a number of other important antioxidant defense enzymes, for example, superoxide dismutase. Studies have found that in adults deficient in manganese, the level of HDL (the “good form” of cholesterol) is decreased.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Benefits: Our cardiovascular system is not the only body system that may be able to benefit from garlic’s anti-inflammatory properties. There’s preliminary evidence (mostly from animal studies, and mostly based on garlic extracts rather than whole food garlic) that our our musculoskeletal system and respiratory system can also benefit from anti-inflammatory compounds in garlic. Both the diallyl sulfide (DAS) and thiacremonone in garlic have been shown to have anti-arthritic properties. And in the case of allergic airway inflammation, aged garlic extract has been show to improve inflammatory conditions (once again in animal studies).
  • Cholesterol Levels: Most of the research on garlic and our cardiovascular system has been conducted on garlic powder, garlic oil, or aged garlic extracts rather than garlic in food form. But despite this research limitation, food studies on garlic show this allium vegetable to have important cardioprotective properties. Garlic is clearly able to lower our blood triglycerides and total cholesterol, even though this reduction can be moderate (5-15%). In addition to the ability of garlic to help prevent our blood vessels from becoming blocked, this allium vegetable may also be able to help prevent clots from forming inside of our blood vessels. This cardiovascular protection has been linked to one particular disulfide in garlic called ajoene. Ajoene has repeatedly been shown to have anti-clotting properties. It can help prevent certain cells in our blood (called platelets) from becoming too sticky, and by keeping this stickiness in check, it lowers the risk of our platelets clumping together and forming a clot.
  • Antibacterial and Antiviral Benefits: From a medical history standpoint, the antibacterial and antiviral properties of garlic are perhaps its most legendary feature. This allium vegetable and its constituents have been studied not only for their benefits in controlling infection by bacteria and viruses, but also infection from other microbes including yeasts/fungi and worms. (One particular disulfide in garlic, called ajoene, has been successfully used to help prevent infections with the yeast Candida albicans.) Very recent research has shown the ability of crushed fresh garlic to help prevent infection by the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa in burn patients. Also of special interest has been the ability of garlic to help in the treatment of bacterial infections that are difficult to treat due to the presence of bacteria that have become resistant to prescription antibiotics. However, most of the research on garlic as an antibiotic has involved fresh garlic extracts or powdered garlic products rather than fresh garlic in whole food form.Overgrowth of the bacterium Helicobacter pylori in the stomach—a key risk factor for stomach ulcer—has been another key area of interest for researchers wanting to explore garlic’s antibacterial benefits. Results in this area, however, have been mixed and inconclusive. While garlic may not be able to alter the course of infection itself, there may still be health benefits from garlic in helping to regulate the body’s response to that infection.
  • Cancer Prevention:A high intake of garlic (roughly translated as daily intake of this food) has been found to lower risk of virtually all cancer types except cancer of the prostate and breast cancer. However, moderate intake of garlic (roughly translated as several times per week) has been repeatedly found to lower risk of only two cancer types—colorectal and renal cancer. This difference between “high” versus “moderate” garlic intake may be a real difference that suggests we all need to eat more garlic if we want to maximize its cancer-related benefits. Or it may be a difference that is more related to research complications involving the options given to research participants when reporting their food intake. Still, garlic has a consistent track record with respect to general anti-cancer benefits, and there are good research reasons for classifying garlic as an “anti-cancer” food. source

The best part about taking garlic in supplement form from the the Kyolic company is that there is no odor attached to it, yet all the potency remains. (NTEB receives no compensation, financial or otherwise, from the Kyolic corporation.)

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Trump Prepares To Visit Saudi Arabia, Qatar And UAE For Trillion Dollar ‘Money Grab’ Amidst Swirling Middle East Turmoil

President Trump prepares to head to Middle East for major money grab with leaders from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates

Everywhere you look, there is end times turmoil, and no place is more tempestuous at the moment than the Middle East. So it is under a dark and foreboding cloud that Donald Trump is preparing to go first to Saudi Arabia, then Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. What’s on the agenda? Money, trillions of dollars, and it has already begun to flow like water. Terror sponsor Qatar is ‘gifting’ a Boeing 747-8 Super Liner dubbed the ‘flying palace’ to President Trump personally, and the president has already said repeatedly that he graciously accepts it. At the least, it smacks of a bribe, and at its worst a Trojan horse. Only a fool would walk through that door, and that’s the memo.

“For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.” Psalm 49:10 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, they are calling Trump’s Middle East Summit with the Saudis ‘MAGA In The Desert’, and Trump has chosen to surround himself with some of the slimiest end times villains there are. The CEOs of Palantir and Blackrock, two very evil corporations, and Mark Zuckerberg  of Meta who may just be the worst of a bad lot. The leaders of the three Muslim nations all have the one thing that Trump values more than anything else, money, and they are prepared to spend it in unprecedented amounts. In Trump’s America, everything including citizenship is for sale. Remember Jared Kushner? He now flies under the radar after receiving $2 billion from Saudi Arabia 6 months after the end of his father-in-law Donald Trump’s first term. That same Saudi investment is now worth $4.8 billion. Hmm. Not only that, but among the many rumours swirling around this trip is that Trump will side with the Saudis and recognize Palestine as a nation. On this episode, we bring you all the breaking end times news you need to know!

NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: The Mother Of Us All

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

On this Mother’s Day, the apostle Paul tells us that New Jerusalem is the ‘mother of us all’ and the gospels present Jesus Christ as a ‘mother hen’

In Proverbs 31, we see the lengthy mention of a ‘virtuous woman’, and it talks about the many wonderous things she does for her husband, her children  and in the administration of her household. A quick reading of the chapter leads you to see the quality of the ‘godly woman’, but a closer examination shows you something quite different. It shows you Jesus Christ as the ‘mother hen’, opening His wings (see Psalm 91) to gather together his children for comfort.

“But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.” Galatians 4:26 (KJB)

Just as Eve gave birth to her earthly children, so are we the children of God begotten through the gospel of Jesus Christ. On this Mother’s Day Sunday Service, I would like to show you Jesus Christ and New Jerusalem, which the apostle Paul tells us, is the mother of all of us who believe.

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: The Mother Of Us All

The Mother Of Us All

“She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” Proverbs 31:26-28 (KJB)

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!” Matthew 23:37 (KJB)

“For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.” 1 Corinthians 4:15 (KJB)

“And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.” Genesis 3:20 (KJB)

“But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.” Galatians 4:26 (KJB)

Is Donald Trump Preparing To Announce That The United States Will Recognize A State Of Palestine To Exist At Saudi-US Gulf Summit Next Week?

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Saudi Arabia will host a Gulf-US summit in mid-May during Trump’s Mideast visit. Speculation swirls over a major announcement on a Palestinian state, and peaceful US-Saudi nuclear cooperation

In your King James Bible, the word “trump” appears just twice, and both times it is in connection with the end times event known as the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church. The Bible says there will be a “last trump” in 1 Corinthians 15:52, and a “trump of God” in 1 Thessalonians 4:16. We know that Paul says that in order for this rapture to take place, there has to be a “falling away” and the “man of sin be revealed”. Joel tells us that in the end times, God’s land would be parted thus triggering Armageddon. Today the news coming out of Israel is saying that Donald Trump’s “big announcement” he’s been teasing may just be the recognizing of a Palestinian state. That’s the memo.

“I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.” Joel 3:2 (KJB)

For the past 16 years, NTEB has stood on the front lines of the end times, keeping a close eye on any and all developments related to the creation of a Palestinian state. During all that time, with over 11,000 articles and more than 3,000 hours of online Bible studies and Podcasts, we have watched world events take us closer and closer to a Palestinian state in ever more narrowing circles. As I write this to you – article number 11,209 – we are a mere kitten’s whisker away from this event taking place. It would be so perfectly fitting that the man that God used to put the world on lockdown and launch the COVID injection, would be the same person who will usher in cryptocurrency and a Palestinian state. Buckle up, Christian, Flight #777 has started her engines.

Gulf diplomatic sources debate if Trump will announce US recognition of Palestinian state

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: Saudi Arabia will host a Gulf-US summit in mid-May, part of US President Donald Trump’s first visit to Saudi Arabia during his second term. This follows the summit held on May 21, 2017, during Trump’s first term. The summit, hosted by Saudi Arabia in its capital, Riyadh, was preceded by numerous predictions regarding the announcement that  Trump referred to, describing it as a “very important announcement” during a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney at the White House on Tuesday, May 6.

In addition to what Trump intends to announce, the summit’s agenda and the deals and agreements expected to take place have become the talk of the town, ranging from security and military deals to technology deals and artificial intelligence deals.

All Gulf leaders are scheduled to participate in the Gulf-US summit, with the exception of King Salman bin Abdulaziz, who has not participated in public events or meetings for a long time due to his health conditions. A Gulf diplomatic source, who declined to be named or disclose his position, told The Media Line, “President Donald Trump will issue a declaration regarding the State of Palestine and American recognition of it, and that there will be the establishment of a Palestinian state without the presence of Hamas.”

The source also added, “If an announcement of American recognition of the State of Palestine is made, it will be the most important declaration that will change the balance of power in the Middle East, and more countries will join the Abraham Accords.”

The source confirmed that economic agreements will certainly be present, but many of them have already been announced, and we may witness the Gulf states being exempted from tariffs. READ MORE
