How to Prepare Herbal Tea with ” Antibiotics”
Seasonal ailments, especially in the winter period, are normal transitions that many people face regularly. The symptoms are recurrent and are: cough, headache, fever, cold and nasal congestion. But it’s great that all this often happens not because we were careless and inadequately covered ourselves, but because we were the victim of friends or acquaintances who often unknowingly passed it on to us. No fear. How to prepare herbal tea with antibiotics? We define it as an” antibiotic”, not in the literal sense, as a drug, but because of its unsuspected effect against invasive microbes. The infusion is also excellent for chronic bronchitis, asthma and herpes virus (of any type), as well as chickenpox.
To prepare our antibiotic herbal tea with very strong effects, we need this specific process: we take a lemon and, having washed it well, we put it in a pan completely immersed in water (it is clear that the Lemon must be whole). Herbal tea will need to be concentrated, so use the right amount of water for one cup. Also insert a clove of garlic covered with husk. Cook over medium heat; from the moment the boil begins, exactly 7 minutes are calculated.
It is advisable not to raise the fire too much and not to increase the boiling time, otherwise the lemon will suddenly Pierce and the internal liquid will leak out. Herbal tea would be just as effective, but the taste would be bad. It is also recommended to choose a lemon with a thick peel. When seven minutes have passed, remove the pan from the heat, also remove the lemon and the garlic clove that we have previously inserted.
We wait for the herbal tea to cool down a bit so that we can drink it at the correct temperature. In case of fever problems, you can drink this herbal tea every 4 hours. Unfortunately, sugar cannot be added because it promotes the multiplication of bacteria. If you need to give it to a child, it is recommended to add a teaspoon of honey, as it also has an anti-inflammatory effect.
