⚠️ Reminder: This is a traditional home remedy for support, not a cure and not a replacement for medical treatment.


🧄🥛 Garlic–Milk Mixture (Full Recipe)

🌱 What it’s traditionally used for (supportive):

  • Immunity support
  • Digestion & gut health
  • Mild inflammation relief
  • Heart & circulation support
  • Cough and chest discomfort (traditional use)

📝 INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup milk (low-fat or full cream)
  • 1–2 garlic cloves, crushed or finely chopped
  • Optional:
    • ½ tsp honey (after cooling)
    • A pinch of turmeric (optional)

👩‍🍳 HOW TO PREPARE (STEP-BY-STEP)

1️⃣ Peel and crush garlic cloves
👉 Crushing activates allicin (the beneficial compound)

2️⃣ Add garlic to 1 cup milk in a saucepan

3️⃣ Boil on low heat for 5–7 minutes

  • Stir occasionally
  • Do not burn the milk

4️⃣ Turn off heat and let it cool slightly

5️⃣ Strain (optional, if you dislike garlic bits)

6️⃣ Add honey only after warm, not hot


⏰ HOW TO USE IT

✅ Best Time

  • At night before bed, or
  • Morning on an empty stomach (if tolerated)

✅ Dosage

  • ½ to 1 cup per day
  • Use 2–3 times per week, not daily long-term

🌟 WHY THIS COMBINATION WORKS (Traditionally)

🧄 Garlic

  • Antioxidant properties
  • Supports circulation
  • Traditional antimicrobial use

🥛 Milk

  • Soothes stomach lining
  • Reduces garlic’s harshness
  • Helps absorption

⚠️ IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES (PLEASE READ)

❌ Avoid if:
