Crushing or chopping garlic releases allicin, its main health-boosting compound. Eating whole garlic cloves without preparation reduces its effectiveness. Let chopped garlic sit for 10 minutes before cooking to maximize its benefits.
8. Don’t Eat Garlic Before Social Events
Garlic’s strong aroma can linger on your breath for hours, making it less than ideal before dates or meetings. Consider consuming it sparingly or pairing it with parsley or mint to neutralize the odor.
9. Don’t Store Garlic Improperly
Garlic stored in warm or moist conditions can develop mold or bacteria, which may lead to food poisoning. Keep garlic in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place to maintain its freshness and safety.
Final Thoughts
Garlic is a nutritional powerhouse, but it’s essential to consume it wisely. By avoiding these 9 common mistakes, you can enjoy garlic’s numerous health benefits without the drawbacks. Remember, moderation and proper preparation are key to making garlic your health ally!
