Fermented Garlic Honey Is the Homemade Remedy To Try This Cold and Flu Season

The latest social media trend has been a longtime remedy for many households.

With leaves falling from their branches, piling up in parks, yards and streets, it’s the perfect time to head indoors and make a simple two-ingredient home remedy that could be a big help this cold and flu season.

Social media has been blowing up with homemade remedies that use ingredients with health benefits to stave off sickness — particularly honey and garlic, and other iterations known as fire cider.

Honey Garlic takes off on social media

The DIY remedy has been soaring in interest ahead of the holidays, with the hashtag #HoneyGarlic amassing over 120 million views on TikTok alone.

“This wellness staple is not a new trend, it’s a revival of grandma’s wisdom, straight from her kitchen cabinet,” Happy Mama Essentials blogger and wellness creator McKenzie Wheeler told “Good Morning America.”

“You can eat both the garlic and honey,” she continued, adding that the garlic cloves are intended as “quick relief” while the honey can be “helpful for sore throats and coughs.”
