We are sure that you all probably know how important it is to have healthy circulation. If your arteries have built-up plaque or get clogged, you run the risk of developing stroke, heart attack, or other forms of heart disease. To help cleanse your arteries, we found an incredible drink that has some amazing health properties.
This drink includes four ingredients that you should always have in your diet. Ginger, lemon, garlic, and water can benefit your entire system with the antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal properties. Garlic and lemon, for instance, work to lower bad cholesterol levels in the body, while promoting good cholesterol levels.
Bad cholesterol can build up in the arteries and inhibit healthy blood flow, ultimately increasing your risk of heart attack. Additionally, lemons are loaded with vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that helps fight free radicals in the body, while nourishing cells in the process. The other ingredients also aid in boosting your immune system, cleansing the liver, and decreasing inflammation in the body.
This recipe is very simple and should become a staple in your refrigerator to drink every day for optimal circulatory health.
Here’s What You’ll Need:
- 4 organic lemons
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 small piece of ginger root, peeled and sliced
- 2 liters/8 cups of filtered water
How To Make It:
- Wash the lemons and cut them into small pieces. Place the cut lemon, garlic cloves, and ginger slices in a blender and blend well.
- Pour the water in a large stockpot and place on the stove over high heat. Pour the blender mixture into the stockpot and bring everything to a boil. Once the mixture is boiling, remove it from the heat and let cool.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer and store in glass jars in the refrigerator. Drink 1 cup of this solution every day about two hours before eating a meal. You should feel the difference within a week.
