During the season of colds and viruses, you can support your immune system not only with pills, but also with tasty, aromatic methods.
One of the most pleasant and effective is homemade antiviral tea. This natural immunostimulant, made from readily available ingredients, helps create powerful protection so that germs and viruses avoid you throughout the cold season.
This tea combines the power of natural antiseptics, anti-inflammatory herbs and vitamin fruits, working ahead of the curve and strengthening the body's natural protective barriers.
Experts have suggested a recipe for the basic anti-virus tea “Shield of the Season.”
Ingredients for 1 liter of water
- Fresh ginger – 3-4 thin slices
- Lemon – 2-3 slices
- Natural honey – 1-2 tsp.
- Cinnamon – 1 stick
- Cloves – 2-3 buds
- Turmeric – a pinch
- 1-2 teaspoons dried rosehip or chamomile
Preparation:
- Place ginger, chopped lemon, along with zest, cinnamon, cloves and rose hips into boiling water.
- Boil over low heat or just let sit covered for 10-15 minutes.
- Pour into cups, add turmeric.
- When the drink has cooled to a pleasantly warm state (about 40°C), add honey and stir well.
How to Drink Antiviral Tea for Maximum Benefit
- Drink 1-2 cups per day during cold season. It is especially effective after returning from the street or work.
- At the first signs of malaise, increase intake to 3-4 cups per day, but without fanaticism, especially with ginger, which can create a load.
- Drink in the morning or evening, but not just before bed, if the composition contains tonic components (ginger, spices).
This tea is an immune support, not a medicine. If you have a high fever and severe symptoms, be sure to consult a doctor.
By creating this tasty and healthy ritual, you not only warm up, but also give your body a whole range of natural substances to fight infections.
