Boosts skin health:Mayonnaise has both Vitamin K and E that helps repair body cells and promote skin health. It can also lower inflammation, reduce skin redness and aids in the healing process.

 

Anti aging properties:The antioxidants and nutrients in mayonnaise and garlic nourish your skin and act as an anti-ageing food. Antioxidants fight free radicals in the body. Free radical compounds can cause harm to the body if their levels are too high. They’re linked to multiple illnesses, including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

 

Lowers cholesterol levels: Garlic has the ability to thin your blood, making it less likely for your blood to clot. It also helps in lowering the cholesterol in your blood and reducing any risks of developing heart disease.

 

Great for heart health:The omega-3 found in mayonnaise is great for keeping your heart healthy and it can also ward off sudden heart attacks. The antioxidants found in this specific condiment, may also help decrease the risk of a heart stroke. Active compounds found in garlic can help in reducing blood pressure too.
