Can I eat garlic to prevent the infection with coronavirus?
It is said that garlic is a kind of natural antibiotic and no one disputes this, but whether we talk about food or medicine, this virus can’t be combated with antibiotics. Instead, all you have to do is to eat healthy to improve your immune system. In addition, antibiotics are effective in treating bacteria, not viruses such as COVID-19.
“Garlic is a healthy food that may have some antimicrobial properties. However, there is no evidence from the current outbreak that eating garlic has protected people from the new coronavirus,” explained WHO.
