Concoction health drink by Ina Tay





After some serious manual labour + intense smoking to the eyes, I finally get this lengendary concoction done!
This concoction is said to be a remedy for heart vein blockages. It assist to unblock blockage so blood can flow through smoothly. As such, it improves heart health and helps to reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack.
It is also said to lower cholestrol, improve constipation problem, reduce numbness in arms and legs, and may assist in weight loss too.
Just 5 ingredients which consists of: Ginger, garlic, lemon, apple cider vinegar and honey.

One cup of garlic juice
One cup of ginger juice
One cup of lemon juice

One cup of apple cider vinegar
Honey to neutralise the taste

Peel garlics off skin (use old garlic) and scrape off skin on ginger (old ginger) and cut into slices. Blend ginger first and squeeze out juice using cheesecloth. Then do the same for garlic.

Pour both jucies into pot and add in lemon and apple cider. Boil the liquid and let it simmer while liquid evaporate till approx half is left. (Without lid on) Once that is done, leave it to cool and add honey to taste. Store in fridge and consume 1 tbsp every morning on empty stomach.

Can be stored for about a month in fridge. Proportion of juices can be increased or decreased. Just make sure all are the same portion.

Alternatively, if u have slow juicer, use it to extract the juices to save on manual squeezing!
