Homemade Elderberry Syrup (sambucol)
If you’ve read my previous post about natural ways to fight a cold, you’re already aware of the significance of elderberry juice. It boasts numerous benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, diaphoretic, expectorant, diuretic, immune-boosting, and antioxidant properties. Additionally, it can help lower cholesterol and blood glucose levels. Speaking of elderberries, I remember an experience I had while picking them for syrup in a local park. I was nearly finished with my “harvesting mission” when a woman approached me. She looked at me disapprovingly and said, “These fruits belong to nature, not to you!” Clearly, she wasn’t a fan of homemade syrups. Since that encounter, I’ve been more cautious and now…

Healthy Polish Coconut Custard (diary free)
Who doesn’t love custard? It’s a flavor most of us associate with childhood and the warmth of home. Pudding was the first dish I ever made on my own – back then, I used the instant mix from a packet. Unfortunately, those ready-made mixes are mostly starch, sugar, artificial flavors, and colorings, which makes them far from an ideal healthy dessert. Did you know you can make equally delicious pudding that’s healthy and nourishing, especially for your child’s growing brain? Thanks to natural ingredients like egg yolks, homemade pudding not only tastes amazing but also provides valuable nutrients. As a devoted fan of choline, I try to incorporate it into…
