Fire cider is a spicy tonic used to prevent and treat colds by boosting your immune system. It’s also claimed to improve blood circulation and digestion, among other benefits. Since it is a folk recipe, there are countless variations in its ingredients. However, aside from ACV and honey, all fire cider recipes typically include five other basic ingredients: horseradish, ginger, chili peppers, garlic, and onion. People can also add other ingredients, such as turmeric, citrus, and herbs. 

 

There is currently no research that supports the health benefits purportedly associated with fire cider; however, many people use this folk remedy due to a host of potential benefits that relate to its combined ingredients.

Dosage: At the first sign of a cold or flu- take one to two tablespoons twice daily until your symptoms subside. For a consistent immune system boost, take one tablespoon at a time, daily to weekly. A little goes a long way! Add to juice or tea, or take as a ‘shot’. Store in your refrigerator for up to 6 months.
