Hi there. Is this tonic a drink a small amount through the week type of thing or a drink all at once scenario? And if the latter, at what frequency would this be most beneficial? Thanks a million.
Hi Melissa! I try to drink it every day (if I don’t forget ;). It’s a great way to give your immune system a boost. Let me know if you have more questions.
You just boil the orange peel, not the orange? Any idea how much vitamin c (in mg’s) you get from this?
Hi Sarah! Yes, you need to boil the orange peels. It’s hard to say exactly the amount of Vitamin C you get, but 1 ounce of raw orange peel has 63% recommended Vitamin C.
