Garlic benifits for earache and headache sore throat etc.

The medicinal virtues of garlic have been known for millennia… And our grandmothers know that the best remedies to cure our little ailments are in nature! These few health tips will amaze you with their effects and practicality.

Garlic: a natural painkiller

A true natural antibiotic, garlic prevents and treats many ailments such as colds, urinary and vaginal infections, digestive system disorders, etc. Thanks to the adenosine and fructosans it contains, garlic strengthens the immune system by promoting lymphatic drainage, regulating blood pressure, etc.

This ingredient is also rich in sulfur, magnesium, potassium, calcium, selenium, iron, copper, iodine, etc. All these essential minerals and trace elements slow down the aging of cells. Garlic contains allicin, a very effective antimicrobial agent that plays a protective role against diseases and viruses. It also has anti-cancer properties which have been proven by a study, published in Cancer Prevention Research, where consuming raw garlic twice a week is shown to reduce the risk of developing lung cancer, by stopping the proliferation of cancer cells while promoting better immunity.

Garlic: a natural remedy for ear pain

Its shape will perfectly fit your pavilion like an earplug. In just a few minutes, the pain and inflammation will subside and you will feel less heat in the ear.

Garlic: a natural remedy for headaches

This method also applies to headaches. In case of pain, repeat this same procedure before going to bed. You should leave the garlic clove in your ear overnight, held in place with a headband or bandage. In the morning, you will find that your pain will be gone and you will feel great!
