What is oxymel?
Ancient civilisations, especially Ancient Greeks and Egyptians , knew about oximela specific effects Oxymel has been used since 400 B.C. The term “oxymel” comes from the Greek “oxys” means sour and “lied” means honey. It is believed that the father of medicine Hippocrates prescribed oxymel to treat various conditions. He used its therapeutic properties to treat respiratory and digestive problems, and as a tonic for health promotion.
Already in the 15th/16th century pharmacopoeia - Antidotarium Mesue - it states: “Honey and vinegar have a power that comes from their blend, and one that is not found in either of these elements alone...”
Oxymel has a pleasant sweet and sour taste with added herbal flavours and properties!
