News Topical, Digital Desk : Has it ever happened to you that you don't feel fresh in your mouth even after waking up in the morning? Or does a mild sore throat sometimes disturb your sleep at night? We often forget the power of small, indigenous ingredients. One of them is cloves.
It's not just a spice, but the queen of your grandmother's remedies. If you think it's only for toothaches, you're wrong. Today, we're sharing a secret routine that requires you to put a whole clove in your mouth before bed.
Believe me, its antibacterial and magical relaxing benefits will have an impact on everything from your sleep to your digestive system. Let's explore the great wonders of this little spice.
Simple solutions to oral problems
The biggest benefit of cloves is that they are a natural antibacterial agent. When you keep cloves in your mouth overnight, their main component, eugenol, slowly dissolves in saliva. This helps eliminate bacteria that may have built up in your mouth overnight, leading to:
- Eliminates bad breath: It significantly reduces the bad breath that often comes from the mouth when you wake up in the morning.
- Toothache and swollen gums: If you have mild swelling in your gums or a toothache , the 'anesthetic' properties of cloves provide relief overnight.
- Relief from cough and sore throat: For those who suffer from dry cough or sore throat at night, the warmth of cloves helps in soothing them.
The connection between digestion and better sleep
You might be surprised to learn that cloves also directly affect your stomach and digestive system. Ayurveda says that good digestion is the key to good sleep.
- Improves digestion: Cloves stimulate digestive enzymes, making food easier to digest. Sucking on them at night helps prepare your stomach for the morning.
- Prevention of acidity: If you feel acidity or heartburn after eating heavy food at night , cloves help in soothing it.
- Reduces stress: Clove's mild aroma and flavor soothe the nervous system. This reduces stress and helps you get a deep and peaceful sleep.
What is the correct way to use it?
For this recipe, you just need to take one whole clove.
- After brushing at night, keep a clove in your mouth.
- Press it between your cheek and gums. Don't chew it immediately.
- Let the clove juice dissolve slowly in the mouth.
- Throw it away after waking up in the morning.
