This strong smelling spice contains some of the same compounds as oregano oil, which is essential in fighting intestinal and oral infestation of Candida. Cloves can kill toenail fungus and stop athlete’s foot while improving the immune system. One study showed that oil of cloves contained anti-microbial and anti-fungal compounds so powerful that it killed every type of yeast, fungus, and bacteria that it was put up against.
