Despite its strong smell, it is advised to put a few cloves of fresh garlic under the sleeping pillow daily, to take advantage of its health benefits, which we review in the next report, according to the American “Bright Side” website.
Treat nasal congestion
The smell of garlic helps to comfort the nose, which is due to the fact that it contains a powerful antibiotic called allicin, which slowly evaporates from garlic and fights germs and infections.
The allicin in garlic also helps clear the nasal passages by dissolving mucus, and thus the ability to breathe well.
Strengthening the immune system
Garlic has the ability to eliminate all types of harmful bacteria as it contains strong antibacterial properties.
This is because allicin prevents the growth of two groups of yeast that allow infectious bacteria to multiply in the human body.
Preventing bed bugs
Garlic is used to prevent the emergence of bed bugs such as bed bugs and mosquitoes, as it is toxic to these organisms, thanks to its strong smell.
Improve sleep
Garlic is rich in Vitamin B1, which is known to help fight sleep disorders. Also, this wonderful plant has a positive effect on the nervous system, so it helps to calm the body and rest the mind and then have a good sleep, according to “Al-Ain Al-Akhbariya”.
