Garlic Healing Drink (Natural Remedy)
 Ingredients:
- 1 cup warm water
- 1–2 cloves fresh garlic (crushed or finely chopped)
- Optional: 1 teaspoon honey (for taste and extra soothing effect)
- Optional: a few drops of lemon juice
 Instructions:
- Crush or finely chop the garlic cloves to release their natural compounds.
- Let the crushed garlic sit for about 5–10 minutes (this activates beneficial compounds like allicin).
- Add the garlic to a cup of warm water (not boiling, to preserve nutrients).
- Stir well.
- Add honey or lemon if desired.
- Drink slowly, preferably on an empty stomach or before bedtime.
 Tips:
- Use fresh garlic for maximum benefits.
- Avoid very hot water—it can reduce garlic’s effectiveness.
- If the taste is too strong, increase water or add more honey.
- Start with a small amount if you’re not used to raw garlic.
 Servings:
- 1 serving per preparation
- Can be taken once daily (consult a healthcare professional for regular use)
