How Garlic Affects Sleep
Garlic contains a large amount of phytoncides - substances that kill microbes and bacteria.
Garlic phytoncides evaporate into the air and are inhaled by humans during sleep.
This contributes to:
• clearing the respiratory tract of mucus and infections;
• improving blood circulation and reducing blood pressure;
• calming the nervous system and relieving stress;
• improving immunity and protection against colds.
Thanks to this, a person sleeps deeper and better, and wakes up refreshed and healthy.
How to properly put garlic under your pillow
To put garlic under your pillow, you will need:
• garlic (preferably fresh and natural);

• paper or fabric.
The method for putting garlic under your pillow is as follows:
