Nature’s Remedy for Immunity, Digestion & Inflammation

This powerful blend harnesses the natural antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties of garlic, cloves, and raw honey. It’s a traditional wellness tonic that may help fight infections, soothe sore throats, ease digestion, and support heart health.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves (or 3–4 whole cloves, steeped and strained)
  • 1 tablespoon raw honey (preferably unprocessed and local if available)

Instructions:

  1. Crush the Garlic:
    Use the flat side of a knife or a garlic press to crush the garlic. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to activate allicin, garlic’s key healing compound.
  2. Mix Ingredients:
    In a small bowl or jar, combine the crushed garlic, ground cloves, and raw honey. Stir until well blended into a thick, fragrant paste.
  3. Let It Infuse (Optional):
    For a stronger effect, let the mixture sit covered at room temperature for 30–60 minutes before using.
  4. Storage:
    Store in a small airtight jar in the fridge for up to 5 days. Stir before each use.

How to Take It:

  • Take 1–2 teaspoons daily for general immune support.
  • During illness (e.g., sore throat or cold), take up to three times daily.
  • Stir into warm (not hot) water or tea for a soothing tonic.

Potential Health Benefits:

  • Garlic: Boosts immune response, reduces inflammation, supports heart health
  • Cloves: Antimicrobial, helps digestion, relieves sore throat and tooth pain
  • Raw Honey: Soothes the throat, fights bacteria, antioxidant-rich

 Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)

Q1: Can I use whole cloves instead of ground?
A: Yes! Steep 3–4 whole cloves in 1 tbsp hot water for 10 minutes, then strain and mix with the garlic and honey. This gives a milder clove flavor and is easier on sensitive stomachs.

Q2: Is this safe to take every day?
A: For most healthy adults, yes — in moderation. Limit to 1–2 teaspoons daily. If you’re on blood thinners, diabetic, or pregnant, consult your doctor first due to garlic’s and clove’s blood-thinning properties.
