In the vast universe of herbal medicine, there are treasures that have accompanied humanity for centuries, offering their healing power in subtle and profound ways. One of the most potent yet common is clove. More than just a spice in your kitchen, it's an ancient medicine and a great ally for cleansing your body.
Clove has been traditionally used as a powerful dewormerIts magic lies primarily in eugenol, an active compound that science has studied for its ability to attack parasites in a very specific way: it is believed to inhibit enzymes and damage cell membranes that are vital to their survival.
But what's most interesting from a herbal perspective is that it not only acts on adult parasites, but also has the ability to combat their eggs and larvae, breaking their life cycle and allowing for a more complete cleansing.
Properties that Nourish your Well-being
The virtues of cloves go far beyond deworming. Understanding them helps us use them more consciously:
* Anthelmintics and Antiparasitics: This is its star quality. It helps the body create a hostile environment for worms (such as roundworms or tapeworms) and other parasites (such as Giardia lamblia), making them easier to expel.
* Antimicrobial and Antifungal: Clove is a guardian of your internal balance. It combats the overgrowth of harmful bacteria and fungi, such as Candida albicans, which often accompany parasitic infestations and cause bloating, gas, and sugar cravings.
* AntioxidantsDuring any cleansing or detox process, parasites release toxins as they die. The antioxidants in cloves help neutralize the free radicals generated, protecting your cells from oxidative stress and supporting the healing process.
* Analgesics and Anti-inflammatoriesEugenol is also known for its ability to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. This is why it has historically been used for toothaches. In a detox, this property helps soothe the intestinal irritation that parasites can cause.
* Carminatives (Digestive): It facilitates the expulsion of gas, relieves colic, and improves overall digestion. This is essential when seeking to restore intestinal health.
How to Integrate Clove into Your Life: Simple and Mindful Steps
Incorporating clove into your routine can be simple. The key is to start slowly and listen to your body. Here are the most common ways, from mildest to most potent:
* Healing Infusion (Clove Tea):
* Step by step: Boil a cup of water (250 ml). Remove from heat and add 3 to 5 whole cloves. Cover the cup and let it steep for 10-15 minutes. Strain and drink.
* Conscious recommendation: Drink it warm, preferably on an empty stomach in the morning, about 20 minutes before breakfast. Do this with the intention of cleansing and purifying your body.
* Chewing the Clove:
* Step by step: Simply take 1 or 2 cloves and chew them gently for a few minutes until they dissolve. Then, you can swallow them with a glass of water.
* Conscious recommendation: This practice, also ideal on an empty stomach, releases the oils directly into your digestive system. It's a powerful and direct way to take advantage of their benefits.
* Clove Powder:
* Step by step: Grind the cloves in a coffee grinder or buy them pre-ground (make sure it's good quality and fresh). You can start with 1/4 teaspoon a day.
*Conscious recommendation: Mix it into some unsweetened applesauce, a spoonful of raw honey, or a smoothie. The food helps "transport" it through the digestive tract.
* Clove Essential Oil (Advanced Use):
* Extreme Caution! This is the most concentrated and potent form. Internal use should be extremely cautious and preferably guided by an experienced healthcare professional or herbalist.
* Step by step: If you decide to use it, the dosage is minimal. It's a single drop well diluted in a tablespoon of coconut or olive oil, or in a large glass of water. Never take it undiluted.
* Conscious recommendation: Due to its potency, reserve it for specific, short-term protocols. Listen carefully to your body's signals.
Herbal Synergy: The Deworming Trio
In herbal medicine, plants are often combined to enhance their effects. Clove is part of a famous "deworming trio" along with:
* Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium): Attacks adult parasites.
* Black Walnut Hull (Juglans nigra): Acts on the intermediate stages of parasites.
* Clove: Focuses on eggs and larvae.
Together, they offer a much broader and more effective spectrum of action.
You can find this along with other powerful herbs in the Regenerative Alchemy formula.

Final Recommendations and Precautions
* Listen to your body: If you experience stomach upset, reduce the dose or take a day off.
* Cycles: Herbal deworming isn't done indefinitely. Generally, a 1- to 4-week protocol is followed, followed by a rest period.
* Professional consultation: If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have bleeding problems, liver disease, or are undergoing surgery, consult your doctor before using cloves medicinally.
