Clove can act as a natural painkiller, especially for a toothache. Eugenol, the chemical found naturally in clove, can mimic the effects of lidocaine without any side effects. Clove doesn’t just work for toothaches. It may work systematically for many other inflammatory conditions.
Clove can be beneficial for arthritis, swelling, and joint pain. It mimics the effects of NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen.
Cloves also have potent antimicrobial effects, even for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. It’s also beneficial against fungi, viruses, Candida, and parasites like malaria. It’s been shown to mimic the effects of antibiotics without harming good bacteria.
Clove oil can break down biofilms so your immune system can destroy bacteria. Eugenol in clove starves pathogens of energy, preventing them from reproducing.
Clove has also been shown to make insulin more sensitive, producing results similar to a mild form of Metformin.
Here are a few more of the potential benefits of cloves:
•Cancer-fighting properties
•Detoxification of the liver
•Blood-thinning effects
•Boosts your mood
•Eliminates gas and bloating
•Higher ORAC scale (antioxidant scale) than blueberries
•Decreases mucus
•Improves bad breath
For the benefits of cloves, chew one clove daily, use clove oil topically, or grind it and add it to a smoothie.

7 Alarming Signs Your Blood Sugar Is Too High
When you overeat carbohydrates, your blood sugar rises, and insulin removes the sugar from the blood. Insulin also allows sugar to be used as fuel in the cell. Due to insulin resistance, many high blood sugar symptoms are related to low blood sugar and low sugar inside the cell.
Here are 7 high blood sugar warning signs.
1. Excessive urination
Waking up to urinate at night signifies a blood sugar problem and even a prediabetic situation. When you have too much sugar in the blood, it’s filtered by the kidneys and excreted in the urine.
2. Excessive thirst
Excessive urination leads to water loss and excessive thirst. High blood sugar causes sodium retention, which your body tries to dilute. High blood glucose also contributes to potassium deficiency, which also increases thirst.
3. Skin changes
Skin folds will often become darker due to excess glucose.
4. Brain fog and fatigue
Many people have no idea this is a symptom of high blood sugar! High blood sugar starves the neurons.
5. Mood swings
Irritability is often caused when your blood sugar that’s too high goes too low. A ketogenic diet can significantly improve mood issues.
6. Cravings
Cravings will typically be for sugar and salty carbs.
7. Blurry eyes
The lens of the eye becomes swollen, and the inside of the eye becomes reddened.
Fixing the diet and lowering carbohydrates could help eliminate symptoms of high blood sugar within weeks. You’ll also want to increase glucagon to decrease insulin by consuming high-quality protein like red meat, fish, or eggs.
An A1C test measures your blood sugar over 120 days. The higher the percentage of glycated hemoglobin you have, the more severe your diabetes is. If you’re on keto or the carnivore diet, you may notice that your A1C test is still high. This is because these diets extend the life of the red blood cells.

Why Your Vitamins Are Not Working
You may be wondering, do I need to take vitamins? Your body needs around 180 nutrients, and it’s often difficult to satisfy these requirements, especially for vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, and vitamin B3. You can not always identify nutrient deficiencies in the blood.
Low stomach acid interferes with vitamin and mineral absorption. If you have low stomach acid, you might also experience problems breaking down food with vitamin B12. Indigestion, heartburn, and SIBO are common symptoms of low stomach acid.
Synthetic vitamins aren't the same as natural ones. Do not take synthetic vitamin B12 or B9! Some nutrients need other nutrients to function properly, so taking them in isolated forms rather than a complex can cause problems.
Many vitamins contain fillers like maltodextrin that compete for nutrients such as vitamin C. Vitamin B1 is essential for breaking down sugar and carbs, so when you consume maltodextrin, it’s easy to become deficient.
Poor diet could be a reason why vitamins aren’t working for you. If you’re diabetic, prediabetic, or have insulin resistance, vitamin absorption will be greatly inhibited. Fix this by going on a low-carb diet.
Poor-quality supplements often contain calcium carbonate, which is limestone! Multivitamins with calcium and magnesium are poorly absorbed because these two minerals compete for absorption.
Vitamin effectiveness is greatly influenced by dosage. The RDA for vitamin D3 is only 600 IU, but you need around 10,000 IU daily. If you have a chronic illness, you need therapeutic doses of vitamins, not small amounts.
Always pay attention to the milligram dosage when choosing a supplement! Taking too little of a supplement significantly reduces vitamin absorption and effectiveness.
