We’re back…sort of. We’re going to do things a little different today. Myself and the crew are still doing the self isolation thing so we haven’t been together to tape some new stuff as of late. But!.. I thought I would try my hand at a podcast/video. I have all the recording gear to do so and I’ve been wanting to tell everyone about what I do to help top up my immune system.
A viewer named TAUFIQ SIR EDUCATION asked if I could make a Ginger Syrup. I thought I would do him one better and make my Lemon, Honey, Ginger Elixir. With everything going on in the world with Covid-19, I figure this is the best time to make one. Let me be clear this is not a cure for the virus but it will help boost your immune system to aid in the fight should you have to experience Covid first hand. Let’s hope you are all safe and will never have to experience it. But the reality is, we are all going through tough times and there are probably more tough times ahead. So don’t result to injecting yourself with Lysol. Make one of these instead. Wishing you all good health! Stay safe.
-Cheers
Bruce
