This is like your own home made flu shot! Basically it is a selection of powerful foods that have medicinal properties mixed together with pure apple cider vinegar. Once you make the first batch and drain it again you can add more apple cider vinegar and make enough to carry you through the winter.
Ingredients
1 part organic garlic cloves (antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antiparasitical), chopped
1 part organic white onions (similar properties to garlic), chopped
1 part organic ginger root (increases circulation to the extremities), grated
1 grated horseradish root (increases blood flow to the head)
1/2 fresh chopped Chillies
Rosemary and turmeric optional
Apple cider vinegar
Method
Fill a glass jar 3/4 of the way full with equal parts of the fresh
chopped or grated ingredients. Then cover
completely with raw unfiltered, unbleached, non-distilled apple cider
vinegar.
Close and shake vigorously and then top off the vinegar if necessary. Keep the jar in a cool, dark place for 2 weeks.
Shake the tonic daily a couple of times.
After 14 days strain and bottle. Filter the mixture through a clean piece of cotton, muslin cloth, fine sieve and bottle and label.
You can then top up with more apple cider vinegar and repeat. I find I get 3-4 batches from the one batch of ingredients.
I tend to store in the fridge and drizzle on steamed veg or simply take 1 tbsp on its own.
Dosage:
1 to 2 tablespoons daily, or as needed.
Store in a dark place.
This tonic is extremely powerful, because all the ingredients are fresh. Its power should not be underestimated. It stimulates maximum blood circulation, while putting the best detoxifying herbs into the blood.
