- Ginger root: Contains antiviral compounds that suppress viral spread while relieving throat discomfort.
- Citrus fruits: Oranges or lemons burst with Vitamin C, regulating inflammation and providing a double shield of bioflavonoids.
- Turmeric powder: Curcumin blocks viral replication and reduces the risks associated with oxidative stress.
- Black pepper: Even a small amount enhances turmeric absorption, doubling its effectiveness.
Two-Minute Quick Recipe
No juicer needed, a blender will do the trick, perfect for busy mornings or sudden discomfort.
- Peel and chop a piece of fresh ginger, peel and slice an orange, slice half a lemon (with peel), half a teaspoon of turmeric powder, and a pinch of black pepper.
- Place all ingredients in a blender, add a little water, and blend on high speed until a smooth puree is formed. Filter out the pulp to obtain a clear liquid. 3. Divide into small glass bottles and refrigerate for three to five days. Take one to two ounces daily on an empty stomach for a pungent, penetrating experience.
Each bottle contains approximately 30 ml, with nearly zero calories, making it easy to carry.
