Honey, high in antioxidants like flavonoids and polyphenols, helps balance the immune system and ward off illnesses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Allison Vincento, MS, RDN, said that mixing the ingredients has some bonus advantages. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe mixture may have enhanced antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties compared to consuming honey and garlic separately,\u201d she told the <a href=\"https:\/\/theeverygirl.com\/fermented-garlic-honey-for-colds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EveryGirl<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But nutritionist Beth Czerwony,\u00a0RD, LD,\u00a0at the <a href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/garlic-honey-benefits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cleveland Clinic<\/a>, said that while there\u2019s some good stuff in there from both garlic and honey, you shouldn\u2019t count on this pungent mixture to be the answer to your winter health prayers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEating cloves of garlic and consuming honey that has been fermenting with garlic can definitely help blow out your sinuses a bit,\u201d Czerwony said. \u201cAnd honey, in general, can help soothe a sore throat. On the whole, though, fermented garlic honey doesn\u2019t have any magical curative or preventative properties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In fact, she\u2019s doubtful that eating the two ingredients together has any additional benefits and warns that there are even some risks to consider, like botulism, contaminants and the high sugar content of honey.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single__inline-module inline-module inline-module--newsletter aligncenter aligncenter wp-block-nypost-editor-newsletter\">\n<div class=\"inline-module__inner\">\n<div class=\"inline-module__title-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"inline-module__unsubmitted-title-wrapper\">\n<h3 class=\"inline-module__title headline headline--combo-sm-md\">\n\t\t\t\t\tGet the latest breakthroughs in medicine, diet &amp; nutrition tips and more.\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n<p class=\"inline-module__cta\">\n\t\t\t\t\tSubscribe to our weekly Post Care newsletter!\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"inline-module__title headline headline--combo-sm-md\">\n\t\t\t\t\tThanks for signing up!\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2024\/12\/18\/health\/this-two-ingredient-diy-cold-and-flu-remedy-is-going-viral-the-truth-about-whether-it-really-works\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It reads like a tasty chicken marinade.
