A study describes clove as a precious spice because of its compounds that are beneficial to you (4).

Antioxidants

According to different studies, clove’s antioxidant activities are huge.

In studies of different spices, clove (buds) was found to present higher antioxidant activity and polyphenol content, tetraethylammonium chloride and of gallic acid.

A study highlights that the major types of phenolic compounds in cloves are phenolic acids (gallic acid), flavonol glucosides, phenolic volatile oils (eugenol, acetyl eugenol) and tannins (5).

Clove is a great radical (antibodies) scavenger and a commercial source of polyphenols.

Antimicrobial

Also, clove is good for the treatment of bacterial infection.

A study says the aqueous extract of clove at 3% showed complete bactericidal effect against all the food-borne pathogens tested Escherichia coli (E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus.

This makes clove a good remedy for treatment of bacterial infection in the vagina.

Furthermore, the study says the anticandidal activity of eugenol and carvacrol was tested in a vaginal candidiasis model, microbial and histological techniques were employed to compare the samples with the controls.

The results suggest that eugenol and carvacrol could be a promising antifungal agent for treatment and prophylaxis of vaginal candidiasis (6).
