My Kind Of Spicy || Ladies Of Hive Contest #256

in Ladies of Hive6 days ago

Have you ever imagined our foods without spices? I don't want to think about how bland our stew, vegetable soups, and jollof rice will be without some chili peppers and a few bell peppers in it. There won't even be anything called pepper soup you know.
Spices like various types of peppers, ginger, garlic 🧄, turmeric, and many others I can't remember to mention right now make our food tasty, enjoyable, and healthy.

If "spicy" should describe my personality, what type of spicy would I be?

I will say garlic 🧄. I know some people might sniff their nose reading this due to the strong smell of garlic, but hear me out, or simply ignore the smell, and let's talk about the health benefits of garlic.

A little back story:

Once upon a time, I detested the smell of garlic; I never wanted to have anything to do with that spice that has such a strong smell. Until a certain time, I was troubled by waist pain and a very stubborn infection that refused to let me be even after my continued visits to the hospital for effective treatment. I meet a friend who tells me to include garlic in my food, sit down, and watch the magic of garlic.

At first I sniffed my nose as if I could smell garlic for the mere mention of it, but one day after giving it a lot of thought, I followed my friend's advice by giving garlic a chance. After all, what other choices do I have?

I have never looked back ever since. The healing property is very effective and fast due to the presence of antibiotics. I no longer had to treat any form of infection or remember I even used to have a consistent waist pain. Sometimes I do recommend its usefulness to friends and family members, and they can attest to how helpful and healing it is, even though my body system no longer realizes on garlic to function optimaliy, you will always find some garlic in my kitchen.

How do my personality relate to garlic?

Okay, like I said, let's put the strong smell aside, as I like to always smell pleasantly. I'm a natural healer; I love to see the people around me healthy and happy 😊.

My dream profession was to become a medical doctor and help people treat their ailments until life happened and I had to choose a different course to study (Statistics) during my college years. Even at that I never stopped to do research on the common diseases that affect us and find effective ways to prevent or treat them, by natural medicinal ways or medical ways.

It's who I am naturally: healing, making sure those around me are healthy and happy, which can be said about my dearest garlic 🧄.

How about you? What kind of spicy best describes your personality? I would love to read it in the comments section. And if you have any questions about how I use my garlic, simply drop it in the comment section.

I'm glad you discovered the wonderful work of garlic 🧄, yeah, it taste great in stew.

Garlic is indeed healing and delicious! It's interesting how we eventually grow to enjoy that which we did not at first. Thank you for caring about others; for sharing as well. Take care and have a lovely day!

Thank you very much,❣️🙏 I never liked garlic at first but now I love and value it's health benefits.

I was like that with onions, and now, I can almost bite into one like you might would an apple. It's weird! Take care @funshee! !LADY

I like onion 🧅, and I can take a bite as well just like you. I guess we get to learn how to enjoy those spices when we realize their health benefits.

Garlic is a game changer, it gives a pleasant aroma to dishes especially fresh fish for barbecue

Now you are making me to crave fresh fish hehe.

The story you tell us about what happened to you with garlic is interesting. Something similar happened to me in my childhood. When I became an adult, I decided to consume it consciously, and I don't regret it. I've even come to like it, and sometimes I even consume it raw for its health benefits.
Have a beautiful day!

I can't chew it, it's too spicy for my throat, what I do is just swallow it like a tablet and it still works perfectly.

Thank you for sharing your experience with our dearest garlic 🧄.

Have an awesome day yourself.

The important thing is that you consume it for its health benefits. A big hug of light!

That’s beautiful 👍🏽.

I usually use Garlic, ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon stick, they are all strong antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, and immune boosters I can testify to it. It helps reduce blood pressure, supports the heart, and fights infections.
spicing up my meals this way, I know am not just making food taste better, but am also giving my body natural medicine. It’s way healthier than processed seasonings or artificial flavors

We are so blessed by nature to have all these powerful natural spices that are packed with so many health benefits.
I love that you are taking advantage of them. Keep it up, cheers 🥂

Thanks ma'am.
