I am a subscriber. Thank you for your informational videos. So, I'm currently on day 3 of the raisin water challenge and I must stay that I notice a difference. I just "feel" better, is the best way I can describe it. I noticed this start to take effect on day 2 of the regimen. I do take care of my health, work out, balanced diet, etc. I don't have any health issues either, so this is coming from an already healthy person. I'm definitely going to make this a part of my routine every month.
Rachel, thank you for your encouraging words. I like your comment so well that I am pinning it so others will see it. *_The effects are there, but hard to describe. I think you described it well as you said, " I just "feel" better, is the best way I can describe it."_* OAG
My grandfather used to soak raisins in warm water. I always thought it was just to plump up the raisins to make them less chewy. But he drank the water, too. I always thought it was weird, but he knew much more than I could imagine. I could truly appreciate learning from him now. He lived to be in his mid 80s.
Well…..I just did the 4 days of drinking raisin water first thing in the morning…👍👍👍really noticeable pep and energy!!!

I've been working on my kidneys with herbs and now milk thistle tincture for the liver. I have lots of raisins in the pantry and will try this, thank you! My liver sure needs a spring clean, especially with all the toxins we are bombarded with.

oh yea milk thistle is very good for repairing the liver it can repair the liver tremendously if you take it everyday your on the right track just keep taking milk thistle any kind and it should help your liver repair itself

I used to be in a baking apprenticeship. When making scones, I would use the leftover raisin water in the batter. One day I thought, perhaps the flavor could be enhanced if I let the raisin water ferment more. On my first batch of more fermented raisin scones, a customer told my mentor that those were the best scones she’d ever eaten. They looked a little funny-darker-but they were great! Afterward, the customer report was conveyed to me and I got a bit of a scolding from my mentor for not being consistent-a requirement in professional baking. However, I believe I also detected a mischievous chuckle from him as he departed the bench. Of course, one could go overboard with such experimental fermentation, but I wouldn’t be surprised if just the right amount did, indeed, keep things in God’s healthy balance. 😉🍇
... a thought occurs to me as I watch this video. At 80, anyone who can still consider natural maintenance is already far beyond the norm! I expect to watch your videos into my 70's... and I shall likely try this.😉

Thank you for the reminder..my grandma used to do this every weekend and then used the raisin pulp in her oat meal..it was great. Also used prun3in the same manner on Thursday to begin the cleanse. My granddad was always constipated and this worked really well for him...
Thank you for this tip. I would add, as some have in comments below: grapes (raisins) are sprayed with various pesticides and herbicides so I recommend organic; even with organic, I soak for a few minutes in the special soap for vegetables and fruits that you can find in healthfood stores/some supermarkets. Soms people can have loose bowel movements with this, so you may need to adjust the amount of liquid, the number of days in a row, or both, to suit you - we are rather individual here. Also, you can do the same "cleansing " which is what this is doing (not biggest effect on your liver, but your bowels) using dried prunes with similarly procedure, just be sure to wash first (this also keeps down any bacteria/fungus that can be present, after all we do not know what "environments" the food has been through before it comes to you). These kind of bowel cleansing foods are much less expensive than the ones offered on the markets and those almost always contain Cascara sagrada, a very harsh bowel stimulant obtained from a tree of the same name.

Hey OldAlabamaGardener this is a great recipe/routine!! It helped my digestion which ultimately made me extremely regular and have less stomach aches! I work at night and tend to find myself eating at odd hours. Food selection can be limited and its not uncommon for me to eat and then fall asleep 10-20 minutes later. Doing this when I wake up on an empty stomach has really helped. Thanks from out West!!
Raisins `~ Not only do i enjoy. Appreciate. But`~ also recall my Great Grandpapa eating raisins quite often. Raisin Pie being his favorite treat-my Great Grandmama being a Pie Maker-Owning` operating an eatery called "TreadWay" way back in the day.... Mid 1940's. Yes `~ i was shown through example eat the raisins! In being good for our health. Great clip-i will try this-Thank You....
If you want a delicious tea, hot or cold, just simmer dried basil with filtered water. It's delicious and has a natural delicate sweetness. It is is also filled with beneficial properties.
I use them in my Rolled Oats in the morning ,i believe ,correct me if im wrong ,it contains Vit K2 which play a role in the production of Nitric Oxide ,needed to have a strong Erection in the presence of VitD?
I would rinse the raisins in baking soda solution, 1 table spoon of baking soda to 2 cups of water for 15 minutes, then rinse. This will remove most of the pesticides on your grapes. I would do this to all fruits and vegetables even " organic" before consumption. Side note, please stay away from gmo, gluten, and preservatives for health reasons and look into consuming b17 found in bitter almonds and apricot seeds amongst other sources.

Hey, Alabama Gardner! I watched your video about raisin water and will give it a try. For about the last 2 years I’ve been drinking a detox tea at night before bed, then wake up in the morning and drink a full mug of plain very warm water before having 1 cup of coffee. I heard drinking hot/warm water at the beginning of your day will help hydrate your stomach and intestines, thus helping the natural elimination process. I can see how your raisin water drink could do even more and taste way better. Thank you, sir.
I am going to try this. I have always been tired and run down my whole life. No one has ever had answers for me so I am looking at other options. I will let you know how it goes. God Bless you for posting your video's.
Great info.I started this before I saw your video. I like raisins and this another way to use them. I will be 88 yrs young in 5 months so this may get me to 100. Thanks for letting me know I'm on the right track. What you eat is what you are. No junk food please.
Hello, Alabama ! I am back again ! This is Carol from metro Atlanta. I am groaning listening to you, because I want to do this badly, but I can’t . I have diabetes…….as well as non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver. I would LOVE to do this for my liver. But, because of my diabetes, I can’t. I have to be extremely careful eating any kinds of fruit, because of the natural sugar in fruit. And raisins have lots of that natural sugar. Right now I am eating a Keto diet, more or less. It has taken me 11 years to figure out that it is really useless listening to my doctors ! So many people are getting cured of their diabetes on Keto, that I figured maybe I’d try it. If I get cured, THEN I can do the raisins. This ole widow will go down fighting, if nothing else. Good video, Alabama.
Keto doesn't cure diabetes, I'm sorry! It helps to keep your blood glucose lower so your A1C will show beneath the 6.5 when you to the test. Low carbs and low sugars are the reason we diabetics need to stay with Keto to keep our blood sugars down. Once you keep your glucose down you cannot go back to old way of eating or it will rise once again. Dried fruits like raisins raise the blood sugars way too much in most diabetics. Try taking Milk Thistle for the liver it helps a lot to fix the situation but it's not an instant cure for the liver. It's a slow process to make it better.
I am not criticizing you here, but.... if you don't go "whole hog" on your diet, it usually doesn't work. So if you are eating any carbs those can also raise your sugar levels. Just a piece of information you may need to know, so that your keto eating will work well, and as quickly as it should, if you are doing it correctly. Good Luck!!!! Have a great Sunday.
@Carol Cole - Have you tried milk thistle(seeds), triphala and/or dandelion for the liver? They helped me lot over the past 2 years to get my liver healthy again after a diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver.
OldAlabamaGardener I sure didn’t know about raisins like this. I have started with a teaspoon of moringa in mornings maybe after couple weeks add teaspoon in evening also. Love watching you health and wisdom still. I am in Ohio again helping out here and keeping busy....stay well God bless
Loved your videos...first saw ur almond milk then tomato juice n now this.. All were simple but at the same time very useful. Thanks n regards from India
These videos are a wealth of information. I’m willing to try his suggestions and intent on doing so. This is my OAG Sunday. I watch and learn after church.
Your videos never get old. I won't dare unsubscribe. This was the one for today. ❤ Rest in peace knowing you're still impacting lives daily OAG! See u in the other side. ❤🙏
I will give this a try. We( my husband and I) still are doing the garlic&honey tonic each spring. I had started to get colds during the change of the seasons. And he wasn't able to deal with the pollen during the spring.Especially in the spring,. This started when I turned 50 for me, he's been suffering for much longer. When, I started that tonic from your video. I noticed, no colds that winter. And, no spring colds or irritation from the pollens while working in my gardens. My husband enjoys the outside again. Without feeling groggy or having a dry mouth. I mean from meds to combat the pillen. Knowing we won't be needing the over the counter stuff anymore is a good thing. . This is all natural, 2 ingredients tonic. That's very easy to make and consume. Plus, I know there won't be any side effects to deal with later. Our children started and continues to make the tonic for their families. I'm so glad you shared this, thank for doing that. As soon as we've done it for at least three weeks, I'll tell you our findings..
Thanks OAG and miss you! I tried it this morning and going to do it for another 3 days like you said, then next month repeat and so on. It’s much sweeter and more pleasant than I thought!
I just stumbled across your videos this morning. Watched a number of them! I already started my morning with dandelion tea after watching. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I look forward to watching many more and incorporating your remedies and recipes!
For those concerned about *pesticides* and other chemicals on the raisins, you can (as of 2021-11-12) purchase Wal-Mart store brand USDA Organic raisins, 12 oz by wt for $3.42. Each canister has a little over 2 cups of raisins by volume so the cost would be about for about $1.60 - $1.70/Cup or Per day if on this plan, which at this time is less than a cup of coffee from McDonalds, or about the cost of 1/2 gallon of gas, or about the cost of a doughnut at the gas station.
sorry I have been away for so long, glad to see your still making health video's..Now this is something I can do with little effort......still checking into the potential health benefits...Thanks.
Thank you for sharing the raisin water. I will definitely give this a try. I make a lung tonic with 1 lemon peel and 2 grapefruit peels, 8 cups water in a pan, cover- (do not lift lid until the process is complete) bring to a boil, lower heat, simmer very low for 3 hours. turn off heat & leave overnight, strain in the morning and have 2 tablespoons morning and evening. I freeze half each time I make it so it is fresh
According to several do-it -yourself -health youtubers, when you boil lemon peel and grapefruit peel together you're making your own hydroxychloroquine. A good thing, right? But be careful if you're on medication, especially for a life-threatening condition, because grapefruits contain molecules that affect absorption of many prescription drugs. So do seville oranges, limes and pomelos. For more information on this see "Three Ways Grapefruit Can Kill You," "Mixing Grapefruit and Your Meds," as well as many other warning videos.
OldAlabamaGardener I imagine the idea of doing it first thing in the morning, then waiting 30 minutes before eating breakfast is to have only the raisin water going through the liver to flush it. May not get full benefits doing it at night?
@@OldAlabamaGardener Day 4. I like it. The taste is very yummy. Sweet. Day two, it made me poot raisin farts < maybe more info that you need to know. But it was only on day two. Day three and day four have been fine. I'm going to do this each month, as my health gradually improves I'll bet this will be a good part of that happening. Thank you.
My dad found a recipe for gin soaked raisins. He tried it, and said it made his achy parts feel much better. They helped so much that he would do way more then he normally did. Then the day after, because of all the activity the day before, he would ache twice as much. At the time, I thought that was funny, but now I'm thinking of trying it. I just won't over do the chores, hopefully. I'll try your recipe, because I don't like gin.
I am definitely trying this tomorrow and will come back here to let you know what effect it had on myself. I am just a little concerned about the bad sunflower oil manufacturers utilize as preservatives for the dried raisins.

My kind of grandfather would love hanging around with I'm a big fan of home remedies just recently I boiled some together with cinnamon bark it's amazing and benefits tremendous lots of natural energy
I eat 12 almonds with raisins every evening - tastes great and good for your health!
Hey, Alabama Gardner! I watched your video about raisin water and will give it a try. For about the last 2 years I’ve been drinking a detox tea at night before bed, then wake up in the morning and drink a full mug of plain very warm water before having 1 cup of coffee. I heard drinking hot/warm water at the beginning of your day will help hydrate your stomach and intestines, thus helping the natural elimination process. I can see how your raisin water drink could do even more and taste way better.
Thank you, sir.
What detox tea do you drink if you don't mind me asking. Natural ingredients I assume.
Thank you 👏! Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷.
Thank you for your holistic natural knowledge. Keep sharing your feel better secret tidbits. GOD BLESS YOU. 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😎
Just found you, love listening to you and your advise. Thank you!!
I am going to try this. I have always been tired and run down my whole life. No one has ever had answers for me so I am looking at other options. I will let you know how it goes. God Bless you for posting your video's.
Have you had your Thyroid checked?
get 8 hours sleep.
Great info.I started this before I saw your video. I like raisins and this another way to use them. I will be
88 yrs young in 5 months so this may get me to 100. Thanks for letting me know I'm on the right track.
What you eat is what you are. No junk food please.
Yep, I agree with you. I am 81 and doing great. Thanks for watching my videos.
Raisins are great - I say what you absorb is what you are.
Thank You Young lively Man bless u with many more years of good health cheers to the cuppa Raisins Water

Thank-you kind Sir. I'll give this liver tonic a try and try your gardening videos as well. Blessings!
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us. You are an inspiration and pray you have many more healthy years ahead!
Hello, Alabama ! I am back again ! This is Carol from metro Atlanta. I am groaning listening to you, because I want to do this badly, but I can’t . I have diabetes…….as well as non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver. I would LOVE to do this for my liver. But, because of my diabetes, I can’t. I have to be extremely careful eating any kinds of fruit, because of the natural sugar in fruit. And raisins have lots of that natural sugar. Right now I am eating a Keto diet, more or less. It has taken me 11 years to figure out that it is really useless listening to my doctors ! So many people are getting cured of their diabetes on Keto, that I figured maybe I’d try it. If I get cured, THEN I can do the raisins. This ole widow will go down fighting, if nothing else. Good video, Alabama.
Keto doesn't cure diabetes, I'm sorry! It helps to keep your blood glucose lower so your A1C will show beneath the 6.5 when you to the test. Low carbs and low sugars are the reason we diabetics need to stay with Keto to keep our blood sugars down. Once you keep your glucose down you cannot go back to old way of eating or it will rise once again. Dried fruits like raisins raise the blood sugars way too much in most diabetics. Try taking Milk Thistle for the liver it helps a lot to fix the situation but it's not an instant cure for the liver. It's a slow process to make it better.
I am not criticizing you here, but.... if you don't go "whole hog" on your diet, it usually doesn't work. So if you are eating any carbs those can also raise your sugar levels. Just a piece of information you may need to know, so that your keto eating will work well, and as quickly as it should, if you are doing it correctly. Good Luck!!!! Have a great Sunday.
@Carol Cole - Have you tried milk thistle(seeds), triphala and/or dandelion for the liver? They helped me lot over the past 2 years to get my liver healthy again after a diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver.
Good for you!
@@mandandi have you taken all 3 as teas?
I love these natural ways to do things healthy.
I am watching this and I can’t wait to see your wisdom. Will comment more later. Good to see you.

OldAlabamaGardener I sure didn’t know about raisins like this. I have started with a teaspoon of moringa in mornings maybe after couple weeks add teaspoon in evening also. Love watching you health and wisdom still. I am in Ohio again helping out here and keeping busy....stay well God bless
am from Nigeria and am always excited to watch your channel
Im gonna start this tomorrow, thank you so much for sharing this information. God Bless you.
You are welcome. Wishing you good health and happiness.

I miss this ole guy ❤ Rewatching March 2024
God bless you, I am doing this immediately, thank You so much for your wisdom
These videos are a wealth of information. I’m willing to try his suggestions and intent on doing so.
This is my OAG Sunday. I watch and learn after church.
Another must try for me. Thank you sweetheart
Your videos never get old. I won't dare unsubscribe. This was the one for today. ❤ Rest in peace knowing you're still impacting lives daily OAG! See u in the other side. ❤🙏
Thankyou very much Sir.
Will give this a try 😊
I will give this a try. We( my husband and I) still are doing the garlic&honey tonic each spring. I had started to get colds during the change of the seasons. And he wasn't able to deal with the pollen during the spring.Especially in the spring,. This started when I turned 50 for me, he's been suffering for much longer. When, I started that tonic from your video. I noticed, no colds that winter. And, no spring colds or irritation from the pollens while working in my gardens. My husband enjoys the outside again. Without feeling groggy or having a dry mouth. I mean from meds to combat the pillen. Knowing we won't be needing the over the counter stuff anymore is a good thing. . This is all natural, 2 ingredients tonic. That's very easy to make and consume. Plus, I know there won't be any side effects to deal with later. Our children started and continues to make the tonic for their families. I'm so glad you shared this, thank for doing that. As soon as we've done it for at least three weeks, I'll tell you our findings..
Thank you for sharing your experience with me.
After you boil the raisins add some gingerroot chips to boost the cleansing of all of your internal organs!
Oh I’ll try that too …ginger hmmm …that’s good too !!!
Thank you for the tip
Thanks
Thank you.
Wat a great idea..but what us gingerroot chips..i know ginger..or is it ginger slices..anybody can help me out.😊
Thanks OAG and miss you! I tried it this morning and going to do it for another 3 days like you said, then next month repeat and so on. It’s much sweeter and more pleasant than I thought!
I just stumbled across your videos this morning. Watched a number of them! I already started my morning with dandelion tea after watching. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I look forward to watching many more and incorporating your remedies and recipes!
I love seeing and hearing him eating or sipping his preparations, he sounds like a baby…god bless him💞
Thank you.
Another awesome health tip!🌞🍇🔥☕😊
Thanks for sharing your health video .
I sure going to try your raisen water.
Thank you.
Be blessed 🙌
I've gone through all comments and no one has reported on results AFTER trying this. Anyone would like to share? Thanks!
I think you hit it out of the park again! I need to go to bed but now I'm hooked on your videos! 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Ty for the advice. Anxiously waiting for the result!
Hi Michele. The results are very positive.
OAG
For those concerned about *pesticides* and other chemicals on the raisins, you can (as of 2021-11-12) purchase Wal-Mart store brand USDA Organic raisins, 12 oz by wt for $3.42.
Each canister has a little over 2 cups of raisins by volume so the cost would be about for about $1.60 - $1.70/Cup or Per day if on this plan, which at this time is less than a cup of coffee from McDonalds, or about the cost of 1/2 gallon of gas, or about the cost of a doughnut at the gas station.
Your a true light of knowledge, thank you so much for sharing 💕
sorry I have been away for so long, glad to see your still making health video's..Now this is something I can do with little effort......still checking into the potential health benefits...Thanks.
My Grams told me to soak golden raisins in a shot of vodka over night and eat the raisins for a cold it did help 👍😊
My mom taught me to soak golden raisins in gin. Its great for arthritis.
Thank you Sr.may you live a long life!💕
Thank you and God bless!😊
I love how you gave your time to make this video for the sake of others health sir😊🤗. Thanks you so much ❤️
I absolutely love your video’s!! I just found your video a couple days ago. Love your information and contents! Keep up the good 😀work!!
Thank you.

Thank you for sharing the raisin water. I will definitely give this a try. I make a lung tonic with 1 lemon peel and 2 grapefruit peels, 8 cups water in a pan, cover- (do not lift lid until the process is complete) bring to a boil, lower heat, simmer very low for 3 hours. turn off heat & leave overnight, strain in the morning and have 2 tablespoons morning and evening. I freeze half each time I make it so it is fresh
Sounds great. Thanks for sharing.
@@OldAlabamaGardener I'm learning so much from you, just started beets, kale and chard & will be in a greenhouse for winter
Sounds great.
According to several do-it -yourself -health youtubers, when you boil lemon peel and grapefruit peel together you're making your own hydroxychloroquine. A good thing, right? But be careful if you're on medication, especially for a life-threatening condition, because grapefruits contain molecules that affect absorption of many prescription drugs. So do seville oranges, limes and pomelos. For more information on this see "Three Ways Grapefruit Can Kill You," "Mixing Grapefruit and Your Meds," as well as many other warning videos.
Well, I just so happened to have raisins and ..... WATER! So, okay. I'm going to start it tonight. Will update as I can. Thank you for sharing.
Great. Please let me know your results. Thanks for watching.
OAG
Let us know pls
OldAlabamaGardener I imagine the idea of doing it first thing in the morning, then waiting 30 minutes before eating breakfast is to have only the raisin water going through the liver to flush it. May not get full benefits doing it at night?
@@sqwrrl besides you'd be up all night going to the bathroom to potty.
@@OldAlabamaGardener Day 4. I like it. The taste is very yummy. Sweet. Day two, it made me poot raisin farts < maybe more info that you need to know. But it was only on day two. Day three and day four have been fine. I'm going to do this each month, as my health gradually improves I'll bet this will be a good part of that happening. Thank you.
My dad found a recipe for gin soaked raisins. He tried it, and said it made his achy parts feel much better. They helped so much that he would do way more then he normally did. Then the day after, because of all the activity the day before, he would ache twice as much. At the time, I thought that was funny, but now I'm thinking of trying it. I just won't over do the chores, hopefully. I'll try your recipe, because I don't like gin.
I am definitely trying this tomorrow and will come back here to let you know what effect it had on myself. I am just a little concerned about the bad sunflower oil manufacturers utilize as preservatives for the dried raisins.
I can’t find one without sunflower or cotton oil sucks
I'm so happy to come across your channel, May God bless you.
Well, God Bless you Alabama Gardener, For some odd reason I was unsubscribed from you. I thought to look glad your still making video.👍💝

Is it OK to use golden raisins?
@@verawol3111 I have not tried using golden raisins so I don't have an answer on that. The answer would be in: Does the golden raisins have the same health benefits as brown raisins?
