PROBLEM: Upset stomach?

Try: GARLIC

 

Garlic works as a natural antibiotic, so it can kill bacteria that causes stomach upsets. But it must be eaten raw. “When you cook garlic, you kill off allicin – the antibiotic, antifungal compound found in garlic,” says naturopath Dr Sohère Dr Roked.

“It might be easier and gentler on your breath to take a supplement, but make sure the pills contain raw garlic. Taken regularly, garlic boosts immunity so you probably won’t get stomach upsets.”
