@caprililly: Simple, yet so powerful | Apple Ginger Tea #tea #gingertea #fyp #immuneboost #coldandfluseason If I had a favorite tea for when I’m sick, this one is it. Every single time I make this it helps immediately. Some of the many benefits of this tea: 🍎 Organic Apple: Simmered apples in tea offer health benefits by releasing pectin, a type of soluble fiber, which supports gut health and acts as a prebiotic, encouraging the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. Additionally, apples contain quercetin, an antioxidant known for its anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties, which may help reduce the severity of cold symptoms. 🫚Ginger:Ginger contains gingerol, a bioactive compound with strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Studies suggest it can reduce respiratory inflammation, ease sore throats, and relieve nausea by calming the stomach and aiding digestion. 🌿Mint: Fresh mint leaves contain menthol, which can act as a natural decongestant, easing breathing and soothing sore throats. Mint’s antibacterial properties also support respiratory health, while its soothing effect on the digestive system can relieve stomach discomfort often accompanying colds. 🧄Cloves: High in eugenol, cloves possess antibacterial and antiviral properties that help combat respiratory infections and support immune function. Eugenol is also an effective antioxidant, helping reduce oxidative stress during illness. 🌱Cinnamon Stick: Cinnamon is packed with cinnamaldehyde, an anti-inflammatory compound that has been shown to fight off bacteria and fungi. Its antioxidant content helps protect cells from damage, while its warming effect can promote circulation, which may help the body recover faster. Each of these ingredients contributes to a powerful, health-supporting tea that’s both soothing and effective during cold season! Here’s what you’ll need: ✨2 inches of Fresh Ginger ✨3-4 Cloves ✨1-2 Organic Apple, core removed and cut into large pieces (about 1.5 cups cut apples) ✨1 Cinnamon Stick ✨4 cups Water ✨2-3 Fresh Mint Sprigs Optional Add-ins ✨1 tablespoon Fresh Mint Tea ✨2-3 tablespoon Sea Moss Gel ✨1-2 teaspoon Manuka Honey Add the water, apple, ginger, cinnamon, mint, and cloves to a saucepan and bring to a boil.
