Guest guest Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 __________________ Kim, Keep in mind hydrogenated oils survive on the grocery shelves for months without becoming rancid because the manufacturers remove the linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids. If you used a cold pressed oil...I'd make a fresh batch and store in a brown/colored glass bottle.

I am very busy with farm life here, but take the time to read and catch up with you all once in a while.I have a question. I made some mullein and garlic oil for dd a few months back when she had a nasy double ear infection. It worked wonders! I was worried, because I have never NOT gone to the doctor before for ear infections, and have always been told the ONLY way to get rid of them is antibiotics. But, now, I have a whole cup left over. How long will this last without going rancid? Someone planted the seed of worry by saying that olive oil and garlic will end up going bad fast and botulism is a worry with it. The stuff I have STINKS! But the oil doesn't look cloudy, other than the bits of herbs floating around in it. I keep it in a dark place, but being the kitchen, it probably isn't as cool as it could be. Refridgerator? If it is deemed safe, I need some for the middle ear infections I get constantly from wearing hearing aids.Thanks!Kim SmithFederal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1.
