R80.00
Pharma Germania Natural Products Cloves Whole are the dried, unopened flower buds of Syzygium aromaticum, an aromatic evergreen tree traditionally cultivated in tropical regions.
Cloves have been valued for centuries as both a culinary spice and traditional herbal botanical. Their distinctive warm, sweet and spicy flavour makes them particularly suited to curries, stews, rice dishes, baked goods, chai, spiced teas and warming beverages.
Traditionally, Cloves are used as an aromatic digestive and carminative herb, supporting digestion and digestive comfort after meals. They have also historically been used for oral and dental wellness.
Whole Cloves naturally contain aromatic volatile oils, particularly eugenol, together with polyphenols and flavonoids. Keeping the flower buds whole until required can help preserve their characteristic aroma and flavour.

Why Choose Pharma Germania Cloves Whole?
Whole Cloves combine culinary versatility with a longstanding history of traditional herbal use.
Their characteristic fragrance is largely derived from naturally occurring eugenol, the major constituent of Clove’s volatile oil. Cloves also contain polyphenols and other naturally occurring antioxidant plant compounds.
The whole format is particularly useful for infusing flavour into teas, sauces, stews and other recipes, with the Cloves easily removed before serving.

Warnings & Precautions
Normal culinary use should be distinguished from concentrated or high-dose medicinal use.
Consult a healthcare practitioner before medicinal use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Clove and its constituent eugenol may affect blood clotting. Seek professional advice before medicinal use if taking anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication, have a bleeding disorder or are preparing for surgery.
Excessive consumption may irritate the mouth or gastrointestinal tract.
Use particular caution with concentrated Clove preparations in children. Clove essential oil is substantially more concentrated than Whole Cloves and carries different safety considerations.
Do not rely on Cloves to treat toothache, dental abscesses or gum infections. Persistent dental pain, swelling or fever requires appropriate dental assessment.
Consult a healthcare practitioner before regular medicinal use if you have liver disease or take chronic medication.
Discontinue use if sensitivity or an unexpected reaction occurs.
