🧄 1. Improves Sleep Quality
Garlic contains sulfur compounds and a strong aroma that some people find soothing. It’s believed to help relax the mind and body, potentially improving sleep quality and helping with insomnia.
🌿 2. Natural Decongestant
The strong smell of garlic can help clear nasal passages, which may be helpful if you’re congested due to allergies or a cold.
