The properties of garlic are multiple and excellent and should always be a part of the supplements to take regularly. It is also a very good stimulant for the immune system.

If you have ever suffered from yeast infection and vaginal infection, you should surely know the warning signs.
On the first day you start to feel itchy. Then in general, the following days the itching gets worse and can quickly become unbearable. Then comes the often smelly and profuse vaginal discharge. At this point, it is too late your infection is already well established.

How to use garlic properly
External use
- Take a clove of garlic, remove the thin film that surrounds the clove.
- At bedtime, put the garlic clove in a compress, which you will remove when you wake up. Warning: Garlic can however be irritating to the mucous membranes.
Overnight treatment may be enough to clear the infection. You can, however, continue this method for a day or two.
Trick: pass a thread through the pod, so you can easily remove it when you wake up
Small warning: in high doses garlic can burn the vaginal mucosa, especially on a woman without any yeast infection or infection.
Internal use
- Garlic extract standardized
The simplest and most effective solution is to take standardized extract of garlic, in the form of food supplements. One tablet every morning. And that doesn’t stop you from using raw garlic either internally or externally.
The recommended dosage is 1000mg.
Here is a good example of garlic extract in a capsule:

- Raw or cooked garlic
Consuming raw garlic allows you to benefit from all the excellent properties of garlic. A simple solution is to eat it in salads. A clove of garlic pressed into a curly salad for example.
However the taste and smell can be difficult for some to bear. I’m not even telling you about the breath after eating garlic. Which can actually be a problem.
You can also eat cooked garlic, which will lose its strong smell but which will also lose some of its properties. It is therefore not the best solution.
You can find standardized garlic extract in organic shops. Or if your budget is more limited, it may be worth ordering on the internet.
Many online stores sell this type of supplement, with more or less uneven quality.
You now know everything about the benefits of garlic as a remedy against vaginal yeast infection, and as a daily health ally.
