Drink Clove Tea for a Month and These 5 Things Will Happen

After consistent use, some experience reduced minor aches or a general sense of well-being from lower inflammation levels.

5. Potential Blood Sugar Stabilization

Limited studies, including one where participants took clove extract daily for 30 days, showed improved post-meal blood glucose control.

If you’re prediabetic or monitoring levels, you might see more stable energy without spikes—though consult a doctor, as it’s not a substitute for medication.

Key Caveats and How to Enjoy Safely

Results aren’t universal; scientific evidence is promising but often from small studies or animal research, not large-scale human trials on tea specifically. Stick to 1–2 cups daily (using 3–5 cloves per cup) to avoid side effects like nausea, mouth irritation, or (rarely) blood thinning risks from excess eugenol.

Avoid if pregnant, on blood thinners, or with liver issues—consult a healthcare provider first.

To make: Crush 3–5 whole cloves, steep in boiling water 5–10 minutes, strain, and add honey or lemon if desired.

Clove tea can be a cozy, flavorful addition to your wellness routine. Pair it with a balanced diet for the best shot at these benefits!
