Garlic is an important herb in both are culinary cultures and our natural medicine practices, namely because it is packed with sulfuric compounds, antioxidants, minerals and unique organic acids that can affect the body in many helpful ways. In the treatment of boils, garlic can actually stimulate the boils to ripen and then burst, speeding up the process of healing. At the same time, given that garlic has powerful antibacterial and antiviral properties, it can prevent that burst boil from being infected by any outside pathogens, and also speed up the healing process at the site.
