Friends of hive,
I want to share my favourite herbal tea, which I have had for many years now, hot water, lemon and honey, every morning. These very simple elements contain a world of healing and well-being. Together they are the elixir of long life.
Honey is an almost sacred food, polyphenols and essential oils enclose the magic, giving honey strength and energy, rich in various minerals. (Holy bees) that bees capture from flower pollen. But honey also has healing properties, you can put it on wounds, it is excellent on burns... in cooking, it contains antibacterial and anti-inflammatory compounds.
As you know, lemons are rich in vitamin C and a lot of potassium, and in fact, colds, flu, sore throats, stress, etc., all these cases can have many benefits with this herbal tea, potassium helps in states of high stress, acting on the central nervous system...
Lemon juice is said to have been recommended in ancient times for kidney stones as its tartness destroys the stone..
Let me back up a little
Among the Greeks and Romans, but also in India, there was a widespread belief that honey was a gift from the heavens and was brought to earth by bees.
That's how I like to think of it.
In the morning, as soon as you wake up, a cup of lukewarm, not boiling, water, half a squeezed lemon and a teaspoon of excellent honey. Even in the afternoon you can repeat the magic ritual, it's an excellent restorative. I recommend it.
