Home Remedy for Colds and Flu - Made with 4 Simple Ingredients and Ready in Minutes

The recipe I have is 2 whole heads of garlic, 1 whole onion, 2 whole lemons include peel, 1/4 cup of olive oil and 1/2 cup of distilled water all organic purée them all together until liquid, store in glass canning jar in refrigerator

If you use ginger powder how much should I use

Thank you for the recipe!
I made this recipe and I added honey and let it sit on the countertop until start bubbling so I got probiotic in this remedy then it can stay in the fridge for a long time.

You have such a sweet voice.

Made my mouth water…lol

Mary, do you ever use ginger essential oil in place of fresh or powdered ginger? Only the purest EOs can be ingested, such as doTERRA ( and those Only if the bottle states it can be used for internal use.) I usd it pretty often.

I need to try this.

We've got covid. This is timely. Thank you! ❤️

I use this recipe and it's great! Thanks for sharing

A cup and a half of raw honey requires a second mortgage around here!

Dear Mary,
That looks like it's got quite some power! :) And just around the right time! Many thanks for such an easy, attainable yet effective recipe.
Just a question: how old were you as a kid when you took this? =) Is it safe for toddlers as well?
Many, many thanks again and merry holidays! 🎈❤️😇

Thank you so much Mary!! 💖

I am so happy I watched this as we are currently fighting sniffles.
I am curious about why we need to keep honey separate if we choose to freeze the mixture.
Forgive my ignorance as I am new to home remedy making and teaching myself to cook more from scratch.
Thanks for all the tips and help! I enjoy gleaning from your wisdom and experience. 😊

I use this recipe for my pollen allergies. I add yellow onion 🧅 for its quercetin.

So crazy. My husband and I are sick. This video just popped up. Wow!!! I have all these ingredients. Just wow. Love Mary's Nest

What kind of jar is the honey in?

Thank you for the video🙂 Will it have the same strength if you use it in tea? Make tea and maybe put a tablespoon or 2 in the tea?

I bet the frozen would taste great popped into warm teas with the honey.

Thank you, Miss Mary! All 7 of us in our household are sick, just two days before Christmas Eve. I made a big double batch of this, and we are drinking up, in hopes to shorten the duration of this tenacious bug. So grateful to you!

When I was a little girl my dad made a cough syrup from left over communion wine, molasses, and God only knows the other ingredients. I suspected kerosene or motor oil, lol. One thing was for sure, you were afraid to cough. My dad thought if it didn't taste bad or burn it wasn't medicine. Whew!

Fantastic recipe to add our arsenal. Thank you Mary

She (Mary) is definitely a blessing

Dear Mary ,
Please add the subtitles because I'm a deaf .

🙏🙏🙏

Last weekend, Christmas, I came down with a head and chest cold. I searched out this video and made the broth exactly per your directions. I found it's really good mixed into chicken broth. It's been five days and I feel so much better, still tired but the cough and congestion are much improved.

Girl, this is NUTS. I've been fighting this cold with my tried and true Vitamin C + Melatonin, but forgot my dynamic duo for a couple of days. Of course, it's gotten worse and today I woke up feeling truly gross. I came back to this, made up your recipe, and OMLands--I can't believe how quickly it's working! Thank YOU, sweet friend! And may God bless you today, and all your days. :)

What about pressed ginger in a tube? How much should you use?

Awesome pod! Thank you for taking the time to share.

Is there a way to make this without a blender? I don't have one.

I made this today and just took my first dose. It was not too hard to seallow, with the honey. 😊

Congrats on 1 million subscribers

You use garlic generously in your recipes, how about the smell ? Doesn’t that bother you or others around you??
I can’t eat garlic because the smell of it bothers me a lot and of course it bothers others too!!

I love that Mary takes all the healing gifts God has supplied us with that grow up from the ground, drop off trees and wash up on our beaches from the ocean and heal us, cure us and fortify the temple of God - our bodies. Mary is for me a gift from God, I agree with the post here that she is a gift from Jesus.

Was an entire clove of garlic used? If not, how many cloves?

Flu season hit our household, but with Planet Ayurveda's immune-boosting supplements, we managed to overcome it faster and stronger. A true lifesaver!
