People Over 50 Are Trying 2 Cloves a Day for One Week — Here’s What They’re Noticing
7-Day Guide to Trying Cloves
- Days 1-2: One clove, chewed slowly upon waking.
- Days 3-7: Increase to two, perhaps one morning and one evening.
- Pro Tip: Pair with food to ease the spice.
Important Safety Considerations
Cloves are safe in culinary amounts, but eugenol has mild blood-thinning effects. Consult your doctor if:
- Taking blood thinners or diabetes medications.
- Have ulcers, bleeding issues, or upcoming surgery.
- Pregnant or nursing.
Excess can cause irritation—stick to 1-3 daily.
