With winter approaching it’s important to prepare your body to fight colds and other illnesses. When I was little, my 90-year-old grandmother taught me a simple but tremendously effective recipe that has kept our whole family healthy ever since. This homemade natural remedy strengthens the immune system and protects us from the illnesses that come with colder weather.
With this mixture you don’t have to fear winter and you won’t have trouble getting through the cold months without a cold or the flu. Just take it regularly and your body will be ready to face whatever challenge winter brings.
How to: Preparing the natural immune system cleanser
Ingredients:
- 400 g honey
- 3 lemons
- 2 roots of ginger (approx. 250 g)
Procedure:
-
Preparing the ginger and lemons: First wash the ginger and lemons. Grate the ginger and cut the lemons, including the seeds and peel, into small pieces. Organic lemons are ideal because their peel is not treated with chemicals.
-
Blending: Place the ginger and lemons into a blender and blend for several minutes until you obtain a fine mixture.
-
Adding the honey: Add the honey to the blender. If the honey is too thick, melt it first over steam so it combines better with the ginger-lemon mixture. Mix everything thoroughly to form a homogeneous blend.
-
Storage and consumption: Pour the mixture into a 720 ml preserving jar. Store it in the refrigerator and take 2-3 tablespoons daily. Once the mixture is used up, a one-week break is recommended before you prepare another batch.
Why does this mixture work?
- Ginger is known for its strong anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It supports digestion and helps in the fight against viruses.
- Lemons are rich in vitamin C, which is key for a strong immune system. Citric acid also helps detoxify the body.
- Honey is a natural antibiotic and antioxidant that supports healing and strengthens the body’s defenses.
