Turmeric Gummies with Coconut & Ginger for Colds & Flu

September 25, 2019 By tania 43 Comments

These super easy turmeric gummies, crammed with ginger, honey and coconut milk, are a great way to help ward off the common cold or the dreaded flu.  A great healthy snack for the winter months, and best of all kids love them.

TOTAL TIME INVESTMENT: 15 MINUTES + RESTING TIME

A small grey bowl filled with yellow and orange turmeric gummies.

The Princess rarely gets sick, yet in the last school term she managed three colds within a ten week period.  Unfortunately, when she gets sick we all  suffer. 

There is little I can do to prevent the illnesses, I know, but that will not stop me trying.  I am now employing everything in my home remedy arsenal to ward off the common cold in an attempt to avoid a repeat of the last term. 

Whilst it is difficult to get her to swallow large pills of olive leaf extract or zinc, she is more than happy to munch on these cold busting coconut gummie snacks.

And you know what, even if they do nothing to ward off illness, these turmeric gummies make the perfect healthy snack – something I am always looking for.
