~Fire Cider was created by famous herbalist, Rosemary Gladstar in the 1970s. Although historically, there were similiar folk recipes but it varied with different herbal-food ingredients. It is not a patented formula as it truly belongs to the people.
~The benefits of Fire Cider are multifaceted. Made with a base of oranges and lemons for their vitamin C content and taste. Raw apple cider, garlic, ginger, horseradish, onion, cayenne, and clove are known to contain antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. It's a perfect remedy for cold, flus and coughs. These ingredients are also known to be effective for reducing inflammation, balance blood sugar, aid in digestion, and offer cardiovascular support. Additionally, Fire Cider can be used on a daily basis to support general health. I even use this to cook with, in salads, soups, and on steamed greens.
~This formula is a vinegar oxymel tonic, one of the most ancient forms of medicine preparation. Dating back to Mesopotamian, Egypt, Greece, and Persian traditions. Vinegar is a wonderful extraction method which adds more nutritional benefit, is alcohol free, and safe for children. To make a vinegar tonic into an oxymel you simply add honey. A standard application in Greek medicine. I use only organic, raw apple cider vinegar which also includes a multitude of benefits such as detoxifying properties, live enzymes, friendly bacteria, acts as a cardiovascular tonic, blood sugar balancing, digestion, liver, and lymphatic support.
