Flavored Infused Water - Refreshing Aroma Water With Fruits And Herbs

Vitamin water is an optimal alternative to provide our body with sufficient fluids and important nutrients. Particularly on hot days, you should take care to drink water or herbal teas. However, taking still water, at least in terms of taste, is not particularly convincing.

Tap water tastes bland and boring, not for nothing has the demand for refreshing vitamin water increased. Traditional products are usually a mixture of water and caloric beverages enriched with natural flavours and vitamins. Aroma water is available in different flavours. However, the important question is whether these soft drinks with artificial additives are really healthy when it comes to finished products.

Vitamin water can also be made very easily and without much effort. There are now countless recipe ideas for all possible needs, not only as a soft drink, but also special preparations of vitamin water that support weight loss and detoxification from the organism, or of course as an ideal supplement after exercise.

Depending on the preparation, vitamin water supplies new energy and also helps us to compensate for a lack of nutrients with this drink. In the following chapters we will therefore show you the best recipe ideas for your own vitamin water.

What is refreshing and healthy vitamin water?

The idea to produce a special vitamin water comes from America. Founded in New York in 1996, Glaceau was the first manufacturer of so-called smart water. Years later, energy drinks and vitamin water from the same manufacturer came onto the market. The company was then acquired by Coca-Cola in 2007. In Germany, Glaceau beverages have been available since 2012, but were discontinued at the end of last year because sales did not meet expectations. In the USA, however, these vitamin waters are still in high demand. Among the best-known products are the lemonade flavour Multi-V, the dragon fruit flavour Power-C, the citrus flavour known under the name Ignite, and of course the essential vitamin water with orange flavour. Every single combination allegedly offers a special effect due to the vitamins and nutrients it contains.

The actual idea for vitamin water came from J. Darius Bikoff, the founder of Glaceau and a well-known triathlete. Due to a cold he enriched his drinking water with vitamin C and zinc in order to recover more quickly. Today this drink is available under the name Defense, it is vitamin water with apple and raspberry flavour. Not all soft drinks are really low in calories. Some of them have stevia added as an alternative sugar, but normal household sugar may also be included in the vitamin water products on sale.

Vitamin water has long been a favourite drink among professional athletes, but it is also frequently used in mountaineering, among other things. Depending on the variety and brand, vitamin C, vitamins B, vitamin E, calcium and magnesium are added to the water. However, biotin, sodium and pantothenic acid can also be contained in the vitamin waters. These are functional drinks, which are basically based on table water, but contain vitamins, minerals, electrolytes and fruit and colour aromas. Electrolytes are also very important for our organism, as they protect us from heat damage, which can threaten our lives together with a lack of fluids. The most important biological electrolytes include calcium, chloride, hydrogen carbonate, potassium, magnesium, sodium and phosphate.

Electrolytes play an important role in our body, as they are mainly responsible for the spread of nerve excitation. They are also known as minerals or ions and are contained in our organism only in limited quantities. These substances decompose into positively and negatively charged ions and are therefore also able to conduct electricity in an aqueous solution. As they have a direct influence on the tension of the cell membranes, they are also responsible for the various processes of contraction in our muscles. A lack of minerals can therefore be expressed through painful muscle cramps. The most important ions in our organism are bound in water by our body. If we sweat a lot, we lose a lot of electrolytes. This is also the reason why we have to drink a lot, especially on hot days, otherwise the electrolyte level can fall dangerously. This leads to dehydration, which is associated with dizziness, nausea, dizziness and heart rhythm disorders.

Especially competitive athletes have to pay particular attention to their electrolyte levels, as they are naturally exposed to extreme loads and therefore also have a much higher demand for fluids. They are therefore dependent on a liquid absorption with electrolytes, which is why they prefer isotonic drinks in sports.

Effectiveness of electrolytes on the organism

Electrolytes or minerals are not only lost in competitive sports. Also frequent vomiting, diarrhoea or excessive sweating can lead to a deficiency. Since our body is unable to produce calcium, chlorine, potassium, magnesium and sodium on its own, it is dependent on food intake. In principle, our organism can regulate the correct and necessary composition of minerals through hormones, because, for example, if the electrolyte content is too high, then it is also excreted more strongly. Electrolytes can accumulate, especially if kidney function is impaired. They are then no longer sufficiently excreted from our body. Taking medication can also significantly affect the mineral balance and disrupt the electrolyte level. Malnutrition, an increased alcohol consumption, as well as a disturbed function of the endocrine glands also lead to a lack of electrolytes.

An electrolyte fault occurs when the measured value deviates significantly from the standard level of the electrolytes. If this is the case over a longer period of time, it may lead to hyperacidity, an impaired nervous system and in the worst case to death due to the failure of the organs. Severe electrolyte disorders are usually the case with sodium, calcium or potassium and are treated as medical emergencies.

A slight disorder, such as hyperacidity, can usually be easily compensated for by consuming water or vitamin water. If the lack of water or dehydration is already too advanced and can no longer be compensated

by drinking, then an infusion containing electrolytes is indispensable. Even a water shortage of only two percent in our body can cause symptoms such as dry mouth, headaches, little urine, low blood pressure and dizziness. Other symptoms are impaired vision, aggression, mental confusion and fainting. If the lack of water is not remedied, the tongue swells strongly and delirium occurs. However, those who ensure optimal fluid intake throughout the day usually have no problems with this. If you do not necessarily want to drink vitamin water, you should look for vegetables and fruit containing pectin as well as foods rich in dietary fibres. They are able to bind water and then release it slowly through the intestines.

Electrolytes control our water balance in the organism, which is important for the bile, as well as for the stomach and intestinal fluid, the synovial fluid and also for the brain water. They are of great importance for almost all physical processes, as they are located inside and outside the body cells. By the way, our nervous system relies on electrolytes to pass on information and impulses. Through a balanced diet, sufficient minerals can be absorbed. They are found in fresh fruit and vegetables as well as wholemeal products. However, it is essential to prepare them gently, otherwise the valuable ingredients will be lost if vegetables are boiled too long, for example, or washed too long under the tap. By the way, desserts and white flour products contain virtually no minerals, which is why consumption of these foods should be limited. Vitamin water is therefore highly recommended, as it provides our organism with valuable nutrients and can therefore really prevent many diseases.

Why is water so important for the metabolism?

Water is, as is generally known, the source of life, and our body is NO exception. However, most people do not worry about their own drinking habits at all and only drink if they notice a pronounced feeling of thirst. For our organism, however, drinking is almost more important than eating. A human being can survive several weeks without food, but only a few days without fluid intake, since almost two thirds of our body consists of this vital element. Water is the means of transport for blood, sweat and also for urine. Also, it is a necessary solvent for most pulps. The body temperature is regulated by the water contained, by sweating and sweat. In order to maintain the liquid level, the constant losses must be regularly compensated by an optimal liquid supply, since we also excrete large quantities of it daily, without paying much attention to it. Part of our needs is covered by food, but it is far from enough on its own. It is not for nothing that the recommended amount of liquid is at least two litres of water a day. By the way, we only feel thirsty when there is already a fluid deficit!

A water loss of only two percent, of our body weight, can contribute to the fact that the efficiency is strongly impaired by it. We get thirsty when half a percent is already missing. Although our organism is able to compensate for a slight lack of water, this is very dangerous for our health in the long run. It leads to dry skin and dried out mucous membranes, which makes us much more susceptible to bacteria and viruses. A lack of fluids also leads to constipation, urinary infections and kidney problems. If we drink far too little, our body is also less supplied with blood, which can lead to a loss of brain performance and to concentration disorders. Lack of fluid in our body is not only expressed by thirst, but also by loss of appetite, dry mouth, headaches and nausea. Our organism sounds a clear alarm if it is not sufficiently supplied.

The water requirement is higher during heavy sweating, physical exertion, diarrhoea or vomiting, fever and also during a diet. However, older people in particular drink very little, as the feeling of thirst decreases significantly with age. In many cases, however, they simply forget to drink or are afraid of having to go to the toilet more often at night. The German Nutrition Society therefore recommends a dosage of 2.25 litres for older adults in particular, one third of which should be part of solid food. So dairy products, salads and also fruit. The other two thirds should be made up of suitable drinks, such as vitamin water or stomach-friendly teas.

The recommended amount must be distributed evenly throughout the day. Of course, not only in older adults, but of course in every age group. It is advisable to have a drink close to your eyes at work or at home so that you are really reminded of drinking. It should also be clear to everyone that a suitable drink belongs to every meal, as this makes the food easier to digest and our body also receives important additional fluids.

Our metabolism has to supply all body cells so that we really feel comfortable and so that toxins can be broken down and excreted. However, he can only work well if we provide him with the appropriate conditions for this. Metabolism is the process of processing everything we consume correctly and appropriately. The food is therefore first crushed by our metabolism and then sorted out according to its usability. The nutrients contained are distributed as required and transported to the cells. All substances that are not useful for our body must be excreted as quickly as possible in order to guarantee a good state of health. Our metabolism keeps our body functions going, supplies us with heat or energy and is involved in necessary regeneration processes. Also, the metabolism is with the main culprit whether we lose weight, gain weight or grow. A clumsy metabolism, for example, is the reason why some people gain weight very quickly and simply cannot lose weight with many diets or with exercise. A fast metabolism, on the other hand, is usually the case for particularly slim people who would like to put on a little more weight.

A disturbed metabolism can not only cause overweight and underweight, but also depression, rheumatism, diabetes mellitus, impaired thyroid functions and growth hormone deficiency. It is therefore very important to get the metabolism back under control in a natural way. This is possible through a change in diet, in which the metabolism is well supplied by proteins, fats and carbohydrates, as well as through physical activities and a lifestyle that is as stress-free as possible. But water is also ideal for stimulating the metabolism.

It is assumed that an adult loses more than two litres of water a day. This happens mainly through urine, through the skin and also through breathing. This large amount of liquid is an average value, which is why the recommended intake of liquid also corresponds to this value. In principle, every person must drink as much as he needs personally, since not every body or metabolism is comparable to another. Stress and sleep deprivation, as well as the absorption of toxic pollutants such as nicotine or alcohol, also require more fluids. Even with a high body weight it is clear that this organism is dependent on much more water than an underweight person.

It is recommended to drink a large glass of water before eating. This increases the energy turnover over a longer period of time. Additional calories can also be burned. If you can drink more than two litres of water a day without any problems, you can even lose weight "unintentionally". You should also be aware that you can support these effects with vitamin water from fruit and herbs, which is why we will explain the recipes in more detail in the following chapters.

Only with water is our organism able to excrete the absorbed pollutants every day. These are absorbed by environmental and home toxins, as well as, of course, by nutrition. The more harmful substances we absorb, the higher our water requirements. Unfavourable drinks for our metabolism are for example alcohol, coffee and black tea, soft drinks, sugary drinks, fruit concentrates or purchased fruit juices. Most fruit juices contain not only a lot of fructose, but also additional sugar. Fructose, by the way, is transformed much faster by our organism into fat than the normal household sugar. It also increases uric acid levels and the risk of diabetes. The typical lemonade and cola drinks also contain a lot of sugar and can cause serious health problems. If our metabolism is stimulated, then the storage of waste products and toxins is avoided. Slags, by the way, are the acids and toxins deposited in our body. They need to be neutralized so they don't burn our organs. Gout, for example, is the result of the deposition and slaging of uric acid. Slags are salts formed by our bodies, which are easily excreted through the kidneys, skin, lungs and intestines if they are in good health. If this is not the case, the diseases mentioned above occur.

Slags must therefore be removed from our bodies if we do not want to become ill. But they can also contribute to acidosis and thus to weakness of the connective tissue. In many women, the weakness of the connective tissue can be seen with pronounced dents on the buttocks and legs. If the connective tissue is not relieved, then understandably more and more slag accumulates over the years and the cellulite becomes much more intensive together with varicose veins. It is therefore also advisable in this respect to remove the metabolic waste products from our body in order to relieve our connective tissue, so that the skin is no longer as limp and wrinkled. Vitamin water is therefore not only ideal for detoxification, but also for our skin problems. The best thing to do is to get yourself a nice glass decanter, practical drinking bottles for the road, and a closable jug or jar so that you can prepare your aroma water with fruits and herbs yourself.

If you are not yet used to drinking large quantities of water, then simply place a striking 1.5 litre bottle in your immediate sight and try to empty it until you go to bed. After just a few days you will be able to see how this not only improves your general well-being, but also your skin. However, it is advisable to get used to it slowly so as not to overstrain the kidneys unnecessarily. If you can then drink the 1.5 litre bottle without any problems, then you are welcome to increase your daily dose a little more.

Aroma water with fruits - Drink yourself healthy...this is how it works!

When you look at the studies of most finished products, of water with taste, you usually lose the desire to drink water, because most products are full of artificial additives. Drinking can even become an addiction with the homemade aroma water, if you simply try out different recipes according to your mood. It tastes best if it remains in a lockable jug in the fridge for a few hours, so that the fruit aroma becomes even more intense.

Each glass of homemade aroma water becomes a new experience, as there are hundreds of recipes to try out, which ensure an excellent supply of liquid in any case. Water with taste has almost no calories and is also very inexpensive. In any case, you should use untreated ingredients in organic quality for the preparation.

Mango with Ginger

100 grams of mango are already sufficient for one liter of vitamin water. The ginger is ideal against nausea and also has an analgesic effect, apart from the exotic taste of this mixture completely.

Lemon water with mint

A lemon, sliced, with five or six fresh mint leaves has a really refreshing effect and also promotes digestion.

What are the characteristics of these fruits?

The pineapple is ideal for the aroma water because it contains numerous vital substances. This tropical fruit already meets our vitamin C requirements with a portion. But it also contains important minerals and trace elements. These include calcium, iron, potassium, copper and manganese. The protein-splitting enzyme bromelain is responsible for the digestive effect. According to numerous studies, natural digestive enzymes contribute to an improvement of numerous diseases, such as cancer and stomach and intestinal problems. Bromelain has a great anti-inflammatory effect. Pineapple is a popular remedy for scurvy, bladder and kidney problems, venous diseases and sore throats in many indigenous peoples. In some indigenous peoples this fruit was also successfully used for the treatment of parasites, gonorrhea and scarlet fever. Pineapple has long been known for its excellent suitability for detoxification, as fresh juice or vitamin water with pineapple helps to wash away the existing slag from the organism. Depending on the variety, this fruit can contain up to 15 percent fructose and around 8 percent citric acid. If you have a sensitive stomach or liver problems, you should choose ripe pineapple because it contains less acid.

Apples have also long been known for their healing properties. This fruit contains many antioxidants which, like pineapple, have an anti-inflammatory effect. Vitamin water with apple slices is therefore also interesting for people who are not necessarily enthusiastic about this fruit. Apples are ideal for cleansing the liver and intestines, they have a positive effect on our brain when losing weight, and also have a preventive effect with regard to cancer. The secondary plant substances contained in apples play an important role in our health - they are also known as phytamins. By the way, this fruit also strengthens lung function due to its high flavonoid content, which makes it ideal as a supplement for respiratory problems. With apples you can produce tasty and really very healthy vitamin water. It is very advisable to use the shell as well, as it contains the most important ingredients. When shopping, you should not only look at the shiny skin, as matt apples are usually not only fresher, but also much more tasty.

Berries are known to be optimal for losing weight because they contain only a few calories compared to other fruits. Berries include blackberries, strawberries, goji berries, currants, blueberries, cranberries and gooseberries. They are really extraordinary for our health, as they also help us to stay young much longer. They have a strong antioxidant effect, strengthen our immune system and prevent infections. Berries contain a lot of vitamin C, iron, folic acid, potassium, calcium and magnesium. They are ideal for skin problems and help to keep our blood and organs clean. Berries are also good natural laxatives. They are also known for their antibacterial effect. Apart from that, the different types of berries also have other positive characteristics. Blueberries, for example, are recommended to support brain functions. Raspberries contain many important vitamins B and help with menstrual problems. Goji berries increase energy and help with prostate problems. So berries are really good and colourful vitamin bombs, which, as homemade aroma water, become more than just a great visual eye-catcher, because they also taste really tasty.

Pomegranates contain many vitamins and valuable minerals. They are also among the best-known medicinal fruits. They have a positive effect in the treatment of liver weakness, arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular problems. Pomegranates should also be a good remedy for brain performance. The bioactive ingredients, flavonoids and polyphenols, are very important for our body. They inhibit inflammation and help against oxidative stress. Pomegranates are very versatile. The fruity-sour aroma of juice or seeds can often be found in salads or sauces. For the vitamin water it is advisable to divide the pomegranate over a bowl in the middle and then dissolve the seeds with a spoon. It is advisable to put on a kitchen apron, as the stains from the juice are difficult to remove from your clothes. It is not absolutely necessary to peel the pomegranate for the aroma water, although of course you can also make a tea with the skin. The peel is boiled only briefly. Otherwise the halved fruit can be put into a suitable preserving jar with the skin and also with the seeds.

The grapefruit is a citrus fruit with a slightly bitter taste. It is ideal for a refreshing vitamin water with almost no calories and a lot of vitamin C. But also vitamin A, vitamin B, potassium, calcium and magnesium are available in larger quantities. The bitter substances contained in this fruit are able to stimulate digestion and fat burning and reduce cholesterol. The grapefruit has an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effect. It is also very beneficial for the skin, as this fruit can also be applied externally. Otherwise, its taste makes it ideal for homemade aroma water. If necessary, you can of course add some stevia if the vitamin water is too sour. However, grapefruit, consumed as fruit or juice, can also enhance the effect of some medications such as special heart medicines, painkillers or even antibiotics. Those who depend on regular medication should therefore only consume this fruit as vitamin water in order to exclude possible interactions.

Cherries are not only delicious, they are also very healthy. This fruit contains numerous vitamins, minerals and trace elements, including magnesium, zinc and folic acid. They protect us from oxidative stress, reduce inflammation and also the formation of blood clots, which is why frequent consumption of cherries can reduce the risk of heart attacks. Gout attacks and the risk of cancer can also be reduced by cherries. Cherries can also help us sleep better, as melatonin is contained in this fruit. This is a sleep-inducing hormone. Unfortunately, however, they are also perishable. The vitamin water with cherries should therefore not be kept in the refrigerator for longer than 48 hours. It is recommended to remove the stems and seeds so that they can develop their full effect in the water. A handful of cherries as aroma water, offer a fruity taste that can be varied with mint, cinnamon or other fruits. Cherries with mango, green grapes, oranges or also with kiwi, as vitamin water, taste delicious and are a very good incentive to drink a little more liquid, even for those who do not like drinking.

Kiwi contains mainly antioxidants and vitamin C, much more than lemons or oranges contain. The taste of this exotic fruit is comparable to strawberries with banana and pineapple. Otherwise the nutrient density of the kiwi is much higher than that of other fruit varieties. It contains vitamin B, vitamin E, vitamin K, beta carotene and potassium. But also important dietary fibres, acids and minerals are contained in this small fruit. Kiwis are inexpensive, tasty and above all have an advantageous effect for many diseases. They promote digestion, dilate the blood vessels, regulate high blood pressure and strengthen our immune system. Kiwis also protect us from oxidative stress and can therefore contribute to a longer and healthier life. It is therefore advisable to consider kiwis for vitamin water simply because of their numerous positive effects. They can be combined very well with lemons, strawberries, pineapple and also with mangos or papayas.

Mango is one of the most popular tropical fruits. The juicy-sweet flesh is now increasingly used in our food preparation. Although it contains relatively much sugar compared to other fruit varieties, it is very healthy. It contains mainly vitamin C, vitamins B, vitamin E as well as beta-carotene and folic acid. Mangos have a draining and laxative effect because they are very easily digestible. They stimulate our metabolism, strengthen our immune system, are positive for our eyes, regulate blood pressure, contribute to better wound healing and also ensure our mental fitness. This delicious fruit also has an excellent effect on the skin, as it protects against aging. You can therefore use your mango pieces used for the vitamin water as external skin care before disposal. When you buy a mango, make sure it is ripe. If black spots are visible on the skin, the fruit is already completely ripe and should therefore be eaten within 48 hours, otherwise it will begin to ferment. In addition, you can also base your selection on the sweet smell. If you want to buy mangoes in stock, please DO NOT keep them in the fridge. At least not if they are not yet properly ripe, as otherwise the taste is negatively affected by the cold.

Melons contain a lot of water and are excellent for the production of aroma water, as their taste is usually sweet and juicy. They also contribute very well to a better state of health, whether they are sugar melons, honeydew melons or watermelons. They are diuretic and laxative, strengthen our immune system and regulate high blood pressure. Melons are also able to neutralize acids. Since they have very few calories, they are also highly recommended for diets. Otherwise this fruit is also suitable against dehydration and headaches, arthritis, gout and rheumatism, as well as against obesity. Watermelons are also excellent for deacidifying and detoxifying our organism. It is clear that you can also lose a lot of weight. You can also mix watermelons for the vitamin water with some slices of cucumber, for example, to enhance the effect for a desired detoxification. However, we will discuss special detox recipes in more detail later.

Oranges are popular sources of vitamin C, although we have also mentioned other interesting alternatives in this respect. What is certain is that this citrus fruit has much more to offer than just vitamin C. Oranges also contain vitamins A and B, iron, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium. Due to its excellent nutritional values, this fruit is ideal for strengthening the immune system and preventing health problems. The antioxidants contained in this type of fruit reduce and combat oxidative stress so that cell ageing can be reduced by regular consumption. The juice and also the pulp help to cleanse our blood and excrete kidney stones. Skin rashes can also be treated with oranges. Freshly squeezed juice is also an optimal means to strengthen the respiratory tract and to excrete the mucus better and more easily. With regard to the vitamin water, the oranges can also be mixed with lemons, or some cinnamon and fresh ginger can be added. By the way, the skin contains more vitamins than the pulp. You can also use the orange peel for your aroma water.

Grapes bring colour into play and have a really delicious taste. Grapes are excellent for our health because they contain many important nutrients. Red grapes, for example, contain many antioxidants, they have an antibacterial effect and purify our blood. Since the red grapes also contain folic acid, cell division can be stimulated during pregnancy. This is also the reason why many gynaecologists recommend consuming this fruit, at least in the first months of pregnancy. Otherwise, grapes stimulate digestion, have a preventive effect against Alzheimer's disease, prostate and cancer and improve the transport of oxygen in the blood. White grapes contain much less sugar than the red variety, which is why the taste is also somewhat bitter. For your vitamin water it is recommended to pay attention to organic quality. It is also advisable to wash the fruit thoroughly with warm water before further use in order to rinse off undesirable pollutants. Grapes can be combined very well with all other fruit varieties for the aroma water. By the way, it is not absolutely necessary to remove the cores for the preparation of your drinking water.

Lemons are known for their antibacterial effect and have been a very popular all-purpose product for many years, which is why they are also used in many households for cleaning purposes. They contain a lot of vitamin C, but also B vitamins, iron, magnesium, calcium and potassium. Lemons have a base-forming effect and are therefore recommended in order to balance the pH value again, which is indispensable in the case of acidosis. But the blood-cleansing and antipyretic effect of this fruit is no secret either. Lemons also strengthen the immune system, the antioxidants they contain fight existing free radicals and can therefore also counteract premature aging. Lemons help with constipation and flatulence, cough and sore throat, heartburn, nausea and also parasites. Long-term use also ensures radiant skin and shiny hair. The metabolism and fat burning are optimally stimulated by this fruit. Lemon water with fresh ginger and a few mint leaves is a good recipe for losing weight or thirst at high temperatures. You should also make your vitamin water from lemons, as it cleans the kidneys perfectly and can also protect the joints. In addition, this aroma water also has a very good detoxifying effect, so that you can excrete pollutants in your body much better through the urine.

In principle you can use all fruits (except bananas!) for the preparation of your healthy vitamin water and let your imagination run wild. You will be amazed how beneficial your body will react to this new form of hydration, as it is not only supplied with sufficient fluids, but also with high-quality vitamins and minerals.

particularly hot summer days. Leave half a cucumber with some dill in a jar overnight.

With these delicious and simple recipes for refreshing flavoured water, you're sure to want to drink a really big glass of your homemade preparations, don't you? Not only the recipe ideas are important, but of course also the ingredients and possible effects of the selected herbs for our drinks, which is why we describe these ingredients in more detail. In this case, you can also orientate yourself not only on the desired flavour, but also on the respective advantages of the most popular culinary herbs.

Basil is one of the most popular herbs in food preparation. This spice is particularly popular in Italian cuisine. Originally, basil was a well-known medicinal plant because it contains healing substances. Basil is prescribed in folk medicine for inflammation and digestive problems, migraine, menopausal complaints, skin diseases, sleep disorders and also for the treatment of joint pain. However, in cases of illness you are not automatically healed by some dried leaves on the pizza or in the tomato sauce. But in infusions with fresh basil you can certainly benefit from the valuable ingredients. These include vitamin C, vitamin K, beta-carotene, iron, calcium, copper and manganese. For the infusions, basil can also be prepared with paprika to make a spicy version of vitamin water.

Dill is known to most people only as a popular spice for salads and fish dishes. This option is also a particularly healthy ingredient for our vitamin water from herbs. Dill has a fine, tart taste, which also goes very well with parsley. For the preparation of flavoured water you should take the fine leaves and also the delicate dill tips. This culinary herb contains large amounts of vitamin A and vitamin C, but iron, calcium, manganese and folic acid also offer us numerous health benefits. Dill is good for digestion, helps against existing gases, protects our bones and is also effective against diabetes. By the way, dill is also a good home remedy against hiccups, as it not only reduces gas formation, but also has a calming effect in case of nervous disorders. Otherwise you can combine dill with other herbs and fruits, such as lemon or grapefruit.

Fennel has a very special aroma, which is why it offers many more advantages than just tea, cough or digestive problems. It can be used in many ways in food preparation and is also frequently used in naturopathy. Its healing properties are due to the essential oils it contains, which strengthen the stomach, stimulate blood circulation and are also anti-inflammatory. However, fennel loses its excellent healing properties when cooked, as the essential oils evaporate. Fennel contains many vital substances that can certainly cover our daily needs. Even if you may not be a fan of these tasty vegetables, you should pay attention to your nutritional needs. With the exception of vitamin B12, fennel contains all the vitamins of the B group, from which your muscles, heart and nerves can benefit. Otherwise it convinces with beta-carotene, calcium and potassium as well as vitamins C and E. Fennel therefore offers excellent protection against numerous diseases.

Lavender
