Oxymel, once an important home remedy traditionally used for coughs and colds, is made from a combination of vinegar, honey, and water. Today we know that Oxymel is a true superfood, especially when made from high-quality ingredients.

This makes our 8 varieties functionally designed to optimally support specific body functions.
The Effect of Oxymel
Oxymel has a long history as a home remedy that has been used in folk medicine since ancient times. It's an alcohol-free, isotonic drink that can be enjoyed preventively or as a cure to support the immune system and overall wellbeing. The combination of honey, vinegar, and herbs makes Oxymel a tasty and nourishing addition with numerous health benefits.
The Health Benefits in Detail
- Antioxidants: Oxymel contains antioxidants from honey that can help combat free radicals in the body, helping cells stay healthy. Honey also helps regulate blood sugar levels gently.
- Supports Digestion: The vinegar in Oxymel supports digestion by stimulating the production of stomach acid. The honey it contains also has prebiotic properties that can support the growth of healthy gut bacteria.
- Immune System Support: Honey's antibacterial properties and vinegar's soothing qualities can help support the immune system and the body's natural defenses.
- Muscle Comfort: Vinegar has traditionally been used to help soothe tired muscles and can improve circulation. Honey supports the muscles and serves as a quick source of energy.
Is Oxymel Suitable for Children?
Yes, Oxymel is suitable for children, especially when made from high-quality ingredients. It offers several benefits that make it particularly recommendable for children and older adults.
Oxymel can support digestion, as the vinegar it contains stimulates the production of stomach acid and activates digestive enzymes. This can help older adults support their digestion and can help children feel more comfortable with digestive issues such as stomach discomfort, bloating, or constipation.
In addition, the honey and vinegar it contains give Oxymel soothing properties. These natural ingredients can support the body and help support the immune system, as they have natural antimicrobial properties.
Another benefit of Oxymel is its high mineral content. It contains valuable minerals such as potassium, calcium, and magnesium, which are important for children's growth and development. These minerals also help balance the body's electrolyte levels, which is especially important for older adults, who often don't drink enough.
