Why you shouldn't put onion and garlic juice in your nose
Onions and garlic can and should be used to prevent colds, but you should not use onion and garlic juice as nasal drops.

Instead of the desired antiviral effect, you can get the opposite effect - the viruses will attack more strongly, warns healthy-nutrition.rf .
