Introduction:
Cinnamon and honey have both stood the test of time in traditional remedies, each celebrated for their individual health benefits. But when combined, this golden pair becomes a powerful, natural remedy that even leaves modern medicine scratching its head. From soothing sore throats to potentially supporting heart health, the cinnamon-honey combo is a simple yet potent blend that has been used across cultures for centuries. Here’s a look at how to make this remedy, use it, and explore its many variations.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (preferably Ceylon cinnamon for its lower coumarin content)
1 tablespoon raw, organic honey
1/2 cup warm water (optional, for easier consumption)
Instructions:
Mix: In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and honey until a thick paste forms.
Optional: Stir the mixture into warm water to create a soothing tonic, especially useful in the morning or before bed.
Consume: Take the mixture once or twice a day, preferably on an empty stomach or at least 30 minutes before a meal for best absorption.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Portioning: You can make a larger batch by scaling up the ingredients in the same ratio. Store in a small jar for easy access.
Storage: Keep in a tightly sealed glass container at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. It will last up to two weeks.
Best Times to Take: Many people prefer taking it first thing in the morning or before bedtime, especially when used as an immunity booster or digestive aid.
