7 Clove Tips Every Woman Should Know

In fact, cloves are often used in toothpastes and
mouthwashes for their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Sucking on a clove after each meal can
help prevent dental problems and keep your breath fresh throughout the day.
- It relieves toothache
Eugenol is a valuable antiseptic for dental problems and gum pain.
Franck Dubus, Ph.D., says that this substance affects peripheral opioid receptors, which are nerve endings involved in pain perception.
For toothache or gum pain using eugenol, an oil maceration or mother tincture is recommended in the mouthwash. These forms of use help reduce the risk of irritation.
However, if the pain is severe or persistent, it is important to consult a dentist to determine the cause of the problem and treat it properly.
- Reduce muscle and rheumatic pain with massage
If you suffer from muscle, joint or rheumatic pain, you can try a pain-relieving massage oil based on cloves.
Cloves have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce pain. To prepare this oil, mix about 10 drops of clove essential oil with 30 ml of vegetable oil (jojoba or sweet almond).
Apply this preparation to painful areas three times a day while massaging. You should feel a reduction in pain within 48 hours.
- Keep colds at bay with cloves
Clove essential oil can also help prevent winter infections such as flu and colds due to its antiviral and antibacterial properties .
You can dilute 1-2 drops of clove essential oil in a teaspoon of olive oil and consume before meals.
You can also dissolve 1-2 drops of clove essential oil on a sugar cube and dissolve under the tongue before a meal.
Use this technique once to three times a day for up to a week to reap the benefits.
- Soothe UTIs and Kidney Stones with Cloves
If you have a urinary tract infection or kidney stones, you can also use a clove infusion as explained earlier.
For greater effectiveness, you can add a drop (and no more) of lavender essential oil.
However, if you have a urinary tract infection, it is important to see your doctor for proper treatment.
