Eat Garlic and Honey on an Empty Stomach for 7 Days

Want to give your body a natural boost? Many people turn to a simple morning ritual: raw garlic plus honey on an empty stomach for seven days. While this isn’t a magic cure-all, the combination of garlic’s active compounds and honey’s soothing sweetness offers promising benefits when used wisely.

Kitchen Items

• Knife and cutting board
• A small bowl or jar
• Measuring spoons
• Spoon to stir
• Glass of warm water (optional)

Ingredients

1. 1-2 cloves of fresh garlic (peeled and lightly crushed)
2. 1 teaspoon (or more) raw honey (preferably unprocessed)
3. Optional: a small glass of warm water to follow afterward

Instructions

1. First thing in the morning, before eating or drinking anything else, peel and lightly crush 1 or 2 cloves of fresh garlic. Crushing helps release the beneficial compound allicin.
2. Place the crushed garlic in a small bowl or jar. Add 1 teaspoon of raw honey and gently stir so the garlic mixes with the honey.
3. Wait about 5-10 minutes (this gives the allicin time to form) before consuming.
4. Eat the mixture on an empty stomach. Optionally, you can follow with a small glass of warm water to rinse your mouth and support digestion.
5. Continue this daily for seven consecutive days. After this period, assess how you feel and decide whether to make it a regular practice.

Potential Health Benefits

Here are some of the benefits reported for the garlic + honey combo:

• Immune support: Garlic has antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties; honey adds antioxidant and soothing benefits.
• Digestive health: Garlic promotes digestive enzyme activity and may support gut bacteria; honey acts as a gentle prebiotic.
• Heart and circulatory help: Some evidence suggests garlic may lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and help blood vessel flexibility; honey’s antioxidants can support vascular health.
• Respiratory comfort: Because garlic can help with airway and mucus issues and honey soothes the throat, this combo is a traditional remedy for mild coughs or throat irritation.
• Natural energy & metabolism support: Honey offers natural sugars and trace nutrients; garlic may support metabolism and reduce cravings.
