Ingredients

  • 3 heads fresh garlic peeled and separated into cloves (about 24 cloves)
  • raw honey to fill your glass jar of choice raw honey is more nutritious than store-bought honey

Instructions

  • Fill a glass jar with garlic cloves and then pour the honey over the garlic. Allow mixture to infuse for several days before using, then store in the refrigerator where it will keep for a year or more.
  • At the first sign of illness, start eating a clove every hour or two. Aim for about 6 cloves per day. The honey can be taken on its own by the spoonful as a cough syrup. You could also mix a teaspoon of the honey with some raw apple cider vinegar and hot water and drink this as a tonic when you're sick; feel free to add a dash of cayenne pepper, too-this is excellent for your sinuses.
