HOW TO EAT GARLIC DAILY FOR MAXIMUM BENEFITS



√ Raw garlic on an empty stomach

Eating raw garlic on an empty stomach can help lower cholesterol levels and promote heart health. “Allicin, a compound found in raw garlic, is known for its cholesterol-lowering and blood-thinning properties,” explains Dr Prasad. To experience these benefits, simply eat a few cloves of raw garlic with a glass of water in the morning. “Allicin gets diluted when cooked, so the ideal way to ingest garlic is to eat it raw and on an empty stomach,” says Dr Prasad. Therefore, eating raw garlic with a glass of water is the greatest way to promote heart health and manage diabetes while retaining the most nourishment.

√ Garlic and honey

Combining garlic with honey is another effective way to incorporate garlic into your daily routine. Chop a garlic clove into three to four pieces and place them on a spoon. Add a few drops of honey to the spoon and let it sit for a couple of minutes. Then, chew the garlic carefully and swallow it. If the taste is too strong, you can take a few sips of warm water alongside it. Alternatively, you can prepare a mixture by combining 10 sliced garlic cloves with 5 tablespoons of honey. “Take a spoonful of this mixture on an empty stomach daily to alleviate symptoms of acid reflux and regurgitation,” says Dr Prasad.

√ Use garlic in everyday cooking

One of the easiest ways to incorporate garlic into your daily diet is by adding it to your regular meals. Garlic blends well with a variety of dishes, including vegetables, curries, dals, soups, and stir-fries. Finely mince or crush garlic cloves and sauté them in a little oil before adding other ingredients to infuse your dishes with its aromatic flavor. Remember that cooking garlic can reduce the potency of allicin, so if you prefer to maximize its health benefits, add minced raw garlic to your cooked meals just before serving.
