Introduction

For centuries, garlic has been celebrated across cultures not just as a bold culinary staple, but as a powerful natural ally for wellness. Rich in sulfur-containing compounds—especially allicin—garlic has earned a reputation for supporting the body’s defenses against everyday infections. This simple, home-prepared garlic remedy highlights how traditional wisdom and modern kitchens can meet in one potent blend.

Ingredients:

4–5 fresh garlic cloves (organic if possible)

1 cup warm water or raw honey (depending on preference)

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (optional, for added freshness)

A small glass jar with a lid

Instructions:

Peel the garlic cloves and crush or finely mince them to activate their beneficial compounds.

Let the crushed garlic rest for 5–10 minutes to allow allicin to fully develop.

Add the garlic to warm water or mix it thoroughly with raw honey.

Stir in lemon juice if using.

Cover and let the mixture steep for at least 10 minutes before use.

Serving and Storage Tips:

Consume immediately for maximum potency, or take 1–2 teaspoons daily.

If stored, keep the mixture in a sealed glass jar in the refrigerator.

Use within 24–48 hours for best freshness and effectiveness.
