Some products act on the body as natural antibiotics. This was stated to Life by nutritionist Marina Makisha.
These foods include garlic and onions. According to her, spicy vegetables are saturated with allicin and phytoncides – these substances give an antibacterial and antiviral effect.
“Garlic and onions are recommended to be consumed during the season when the risk of spreading various respiratory viral infections is increased. In addition, you should pay attention to them in case of diseases of the respiratory tract or the digestive system,” Makisha said.
The nutritionist added that the beneficial effects of onions and garlic on the body can be manifested even when inhaling the aroma from chopped vegetables.
Another natural antibiotic is ginger. Studies have shown the beneficial effects of its terpene compounds. These substances are able to destroy bacteria that cause inflammation and diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.
Marina Makisha also reminded about the benefits of horseradish. It has an antibacterial effect on the body due to its saturation with lysozyme and olive essential oil.
