Today, we’re going to talk about the benefits of clove for health. Cloves have potent antibacterial, antifungal, anti-candida, and antiviral properties with virtually no side effects!
Cloves can help numb tooth pain and eliminate microbes. They have been patented for use in mouthwash, toothpaste, and gingivitis treatment. Cloves can also increase bile flow and digestive enzymes.
A study published in the World Journal of Dentistry found that clove oil worked faster, lasted longer, and was more effective for toothaches than benzocaine. Another study compared eugenol to hydrocortisone and found the effectiveness was equal to or greater in reducing skin swelling and redness.
You can use cloves to make a salve or a liquid to drink before bed. It can be used for tooth pain, biofilms, muscle pain, joint pain, and more! Clove oil can be mixed with olive or coconut oil and massaged directly into the joints.
You can also use clove oil to make a lip balm as a natural remedy for the herpes simplex virus. It can even be used as a mosquito repellent.
Drinking clove water before bed can help you relax, detoxify the liver, and improve digestion. It can also be used for respiratory problems like bronchitis, mucus in the lungs, colds, coughs, and asthma.
Clove water helps support cognitive function, a healthy heart, and healthy immune function. It’s a natural sedative, so it can be used as a sleep aid without the side effects of sleep medication.
To make clove water, boil 4 to 5 cloves in one cup of water, lower the heat, and allow it to simmer for five minutes. Cover the water while it’s simmering to prevent the vapors from escaping. Allow the clove water to cool for one hour and consume it 30 minutes before bed.
