Garlic with milk is a traditional combination that can provide nutrients, although it is not a medical treatment.
Potential benefits
- It supports the immune system: garlic contains sulfur compounds, such as allicin.
- Antioxidant properties: helps protect cells against oxidative stress.
- It may promote cardiovascular health: regular consumption of garlic has been linked to small benefits on blood pressure and cholesterol.
- It provides nutrients: milk provides protein, calcium and vitamin B12, depending on the type of milk.
- It can be comforting: a warm drink can be pleasant when there is respiratory discomfort, although it does not cure the flu or a cold.
Important: There is no solid evidence that garlic with milk “cures” infections, diabetes, arthritis, or other diseases. Furthermore, garlic can cause heartburn or digestive upset in some people.
