Introduction
For years, my mom struggled with relentless knee and varicose vein pain that made walking a daily challenge. Despite medications and therapies, nothing truly worked — until she tried a natural remedy passed down through generations: a homemade blend of garlic, onion, and vinegar. Within weeks, she noticed significant relief. This isn't just an old wives' tale — the anti-inflammatory and circulation-boosting properties of these ingredients are supported by science. Here's how to make this powerful natural tonic at home.
Ingredients:
10 cloves of fresh garlic (peeled and crushed) 🧄
1 large red onion (finely chopped) 🧅
1 cup of raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar 🍶
1 tablespoon of raw honey (optional, for taste) 🍯
A glass jar with a tight-fitting lid
Directions:
Prepare the Ingredients:
Crush the garlic cloves to activate allicin, the active compound that reduces inflammation. Chop the red onion finely to release its natural sulfur compounds.
Mix Everything Together:
In the glass jar, combine the garlic, onion, and apple cider vinegar. Add honey if desired for a milder flavor.
Infuse:
Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark place (like a cupboard) for 5–7 days. Shake it once a day to mix the ingredients and help the infusion process.
Strain & Store:
After a week, strain the mixture through cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer. Transfer the liquid into a clean bottle or jar for daily use.
