Always Garlic Peels at Hand: My Grandmother’s Secret😍😍😍

By Lilia

Garlic peels, often thrown away without thinking, are actually a hidden treasure. My grandmother knew their virtues and used them in ingenious ways. Here are his secrets and tips for taking advantage of garlic peels in your daily life.

  1. Plant Booster
    Natural Fertilization
    Garlic peels are rich in beneficial nutrients for plants. My grandmother would soak them in water overnight and use that water to water her plants. This stimulates their growth and protects them against parasites.
  2. Hair Care
    Fortifying Hair Mask
    For stronger, shinier hair, my grandmother mixed boiled garlic peels with coconut oil. Apply this mixture to your hair and let it sit for 30 minutes before rinsing.
  3. Antibacterial Cleaning
    Natural Disinfectant
    The antibacterial properties of garlic are well known. Use an infusion of garlic peels to clean your kitchen and bathroom surfaces. This helps eliminate bacteria without harsh chemicals.
  4. Health Infusion
    Beneficent Drink
    My grandmother prepared an infusion of garlic peels to strengthen the immune system. Boil the peels in water for 10 minutes, then filter and drink this infusion. It is rich in antioxidants and other beneficial compounds.
  5. Natural Repellent
    Chasing Insects
    Garlic peels are also effective in repelling insects. Scatter them around your house or garden to keep away ants, mosquitoes and other pests.
  6. Composting
    Organic Amendment
    Add garlic peels to your compost to enrich your soil. They decompose easily and add valuable nutrients, improving the quality of your compost.
  7. Joint Pain Relief
    Traditional Remedy
    To relieve joint pain, my grandmother would apply heated garlic peels directly to the painful areas. Garlic’s anti-inflammatory compounds may help reduce inflammation and pain.
