Hormonal Imbalance in the Skin & How to Restore Balance

Sage & Ginger Oxymel Recipe
An oxymel is a tart herbal healing tonic made with vinegar and honey. Traditionally, it is made with more honey than vinegar but this ends up being incredibly sweet so most modern oxymels are made with a 1:1 ratio of honey & vinegar. Oxymels have been around and at least documented since the age of Hippocrates (often called the father of medicine) who said, “You will find the drink, called oxymel, often very useful… for it promotes expectoration and freedom of breathing” (Hippocrates, 400 B.C.E. This tonic does not simply need to be made of honey and vinegar, we can add herbs to enhance the health benefits! In today's recipe…
