As we age, bone density decreases, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Clove water contains manganese, a mineral essential for bone growth and strength. Regular consumption can therefore help maintain healthy bones and prevent certain degenerative diseases.
Antitumor potential investigated.
Several studies suggest that clove essential oil and extract may have antitumor properties, primarily due to eugenol, an aromatic compound with significant anti-inflammatory properties.
Research into the health benefits of green tea has shown that eugenol can help eliminate tumor cells, particularly breast cancer cells. While these promising laboratory results are encouraging, they should be interpreted with caution, as the eugenol doses used were exceptionally high.
It is important to know that excessive consumption of eugenol can be toxic to the liver, especially in children.
