A Natural Antibacterial and Antifungal Effect
Garlic is a powerful natural antiseptic. It contains allicin, a compound with well-known antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Can garlic really clean the toilet?
In theory, its antimicrobial properties could have an effect on certain bacteria. However, its effectiveness is limited: to work, allicin must be released in large quantities, which requires crushing or chopping the garlic—not just dropping it in water.
What’s a better alternative for disinfecting naturally?
Mix white vinegar and baking soda for a natural and effective cleaning solution. Use hydrogen peroxide for deeper disinfection.
A Powerful Symbol of Protection Against Negative Energies
Since ancient times, garlic has been considered a powerful shield against bad influences. In many cultures, it’s used to ward off evil spirits and purify the environment.
Why is garlic seen as a spiritual protector?
It’s used in many rituals to drive away negative energies. People hang it on doors to keep bad spirits away. Since toilets are a place of elimination and purification, some believe that throwing a garlic clove there symbolizes the removal of negative waves accumulated during the day.
Real effect or superstition?
No scientific evidence supports this belief, but many people experience a sense of peace when performing this ritual. The mere act of doing something symbolic can provide a sense of well-being.
