Oxymel, once a well-known home remedy during the cold season, 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. Our Oxymel extracts at EWALIA contain pure apple cider vinegar and premium Austrian honey, enriched with carefully selected medicinal herbs.

The Effect of Oxymel
Oxymel has a long history as a home remedy that has been used in folk medicine since antiquity. It is an alcohol-free, isotonic drink that can be enjoyed preventively or as a cure to support the immune system and general wellbeing. The combination of honey, vinegar and herbs makes Oxymel a tasty and nourishing addition with numerous benefits for everyday wellbeing.
The Wellbeing Benefits in Detail
- Antioxidants: Oxymel contains antioxidants from the honey, which can help combat free radicals in the body and support healthy cells. Honey also has a gentle, balancing effect on blood sugar levels.
- 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: The antibacterial properties of honey and the natural properties of vinegar can help support the immune system.
- Muscle comfort: Vinegar is traditionally used to support muscle comfort and may help promote circulation. Honey 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 a number of qualities that make it a good choice for both 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 be a gentle addition to children's everyday digestive comfort.
Oxymel also contains natural ingredients such as honey and vinegar, which are valued for their antimicrobial properties and their contribution to general wellbeing.
Another advantage 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 contribute to a balanced electrolyte intake, which is especially relevant for older adults, who often drink too little.
