1 – CLOVES FOR STOMACH ACHES
A clove-infused tea can address various digestive issues, particularly stomach pains and bloating. To prepare it, steep 4 or 5 cloves in a large cup of boiling water for about ten minutes.
2 – CLOVES FOR BAD BREATH
To combat foul mouth odor, suck on a clove after every meal. It ensures fresh breath and is also beneficial for teeth.
3 – IT RELIEVES TOOTHACHE
Eugenol, found in cloves, is an invaluable antiseptic for painful gums and teeth. “It targets the peripheral morphine receptors, the nerve endings that help us sense pain independently,” explains Franck Dubus, a pharmacist. Opt for an oil-based mouth rinse or a tincture to reduce irritation risks.
