In winter, you need to know how to eat garlic for maximum health benefits. These are ways of turning it into a great booster mechanism for wellness and immunity.
EAT RAW GARLIC CLOVES
To take advantage of garlic’s powerful antimicrobial and immune-enhancing abilities, consume raw garlic cloves prior to breakfast.
INFUSE IN HONEY
Place peeled garlic cloves in honey for several days, making a natural, sweet and powerful mixture good for immune-boosting.
ADD TO SOUPS AND BROTHS
Add a flavour and immune-health boost to soups and broths with a bit of crushed or sliced garlic.
CREATE GARLIC-INFUSED OIL
Making garlic-infused oil involves heating up cloves in oil and creating another component in your kitchen, either food or salad dressing.
GARLIC TEA
Make a cup of garlic tea using crushed garlic steeped in hot water, which serves as a warm source and boosts the immune system during winter.
MIX IN WITH YOGHURT
Yoghurt and crumbled garlic can be mixed as a nice and nutritious snack or side dish that supports boosting one’s immunity.
EAT FERMENTED GARLIC
Garlic after fermentation still has the same nutritious power; eat it and boost your body with energy and immunity power.
ROASTED GARLIC SPREAD
Toast garlic bulbs and mash the soft cloves on bread or as dips for a delicious and healthy snack.
MODERATION IS KEY
Eat garlic moderately—not too much to cause ill effects but just enough to take advantage of the benefits without burdening your body.
CONCLUSION
Consuming garlic during the winter affords multi-dimensional benefits to the body. Seek guidance from a nutritionist for individual recommendations.
