This potent tonic I developed features a blend of some of nature’s most powerful bio-active ingredients: garlic, onions, lemon, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, cayenne, honey, and virgin coconut oil, and clove-cardamom tea. It aims to boost the immune system, serve as a natural antibiotic, improve gut and respiratory health, promote circulation, reduce inflammation, and combat pathogens.
In my own personal experience, having had 3 covid bouts that left me weak and sickly, this tonic has been instrumental in helping me ward off respiratory sickness and has helped me have more energy.
A caveat - the taste may be a bit too strong for some, and may cause digestive stress, if so you can take the tonic with meals.
Also, I DO NOT CLAIM ANY THERAPEUTIC BENEFITS for this tonic. I'm practically just giving this away to humanity, especially for those who are sick, and wants to try a natural alternative or support for expensive antibiotic treatment.
Here's the good stuff:
