During the cold winter days, your body is exposed to various types of viruses and colds, which normally weakens your immunity.
To protect yourself, there is a simple antiviral drink, a mixture of three types of ingredients, widely used in folk medicine: lemon, ginger, and honey (or some Vegan honey substitute as Healthline).
You all know the benefits of lemon. It is generally known that the lemon is filled with Vitamin C and organic acids and it is excellent for the improvement of immunity, prevention, and treatment of colds and flu.
Ginger is generally known as a useful root, with large and deep healing effect. It stimulates the secretion of mucus and thus facilitates cough, and reduces pain in the throat and chest. Ginger has anti-fungal, anti-toxic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties, but it is also used to highlight an antihistamine and against allergies.
