HEALTH BENEFITS OF LAUNG

Laung (cloves) are the dried flowers of a clove tree. They came from the Spice Islands near China, and by the late Middle Ages, they were a big part of the food in both Europe and Asia. Cloves are still used as a spice because they give food a unique flavor. They also have a number of health benefits that are very impressive.

IMPROVES DIGESTION Cloves can help with digestive problems if you eat them first thing in the morning. They stimulate the production of digestive enzymes, which helps keep you from getting constipated or having indigestion. Moreover, there is a lot of fiber in laung, which is good for your digestive system.

GREAT FOR LIVER The eugenol in laung has been shown to help ease the symptoms of liver cirrhosis and fatty liver disease, and it may also help the liver work better in general.

CUTS DOWN ULCERS Ulcers are most often caused by a weakening of the layers of mucus that protect the lining of your stomach. Initial research has shown that cloves thicken this mucus, which makes it less likely that you will get ulcers and helps ulcers heal faster.

HELPS WITH TOOTHACHES Cloves have properties that make them act as a local anesthetic and help to ease the pain for a while. Also, if you've had work done on your tooth, they can help ease the pain.

GOOD FOR HAIR AND SKIN Because laung are antibacterial and antifungal, they are great for people with acne-prone skin. If you eat cloves every day, they can help you get rid of acne. Cloves are also thought to be good for your hair because they help hair grow by getting more blood to the scalp.
