Use Garlic for Your Digestion

Hello [Greeting]

If you are more interested in garlic for its healing properties and health benefits, as 
opposed to just the taste, then you have come to the right place. Today, you’re going to 
learn about one specific health benefit of garlic – improving your digestion.


Garlic is a Great Prebiotic Food

There are prebiotics and probiotics. The prebiotics are typically non-digestible foods 
help to feed the good bacteria in your body. Among them include garlic, which gets its 
main prebiotic from inulin that exists naturally in garlic. If you are looking to promote 
good bacteria growth in your gut, adding more garlic to your diet is a great way to do 
this. 


There are Tons of Healing Properties

In addition to the inulin prebiotic of garlic, it can also help your digestive system and 
health in general thanks to its numerous other healing properties. This includes the 
antioxidants you get from garlic, along with the microbial healing properties. 


Be Careful if You Are Sensitive to Inulin

One thing to be careful of is if you have a sensitive stomach, acid reflux or GERD, 
Gastritis, or irritable bowel syndrome, you might have a sensitivity to inulin. It is known 
as a FODMAP, so it might affect you negatively. This is not true for everyone, but if you 
tend to get sick or overly gassy from eating foods with a lot of garlic and onion, it is very 
likely that you are sensitive to this type of fiber.
