Health Benefits andUses
Various garlic health benefits and medicinalproperties have long been claimed and it has been used extensivelyin herbal medicine (phytotherapy). with a reputation infolklore for preventing everything from the common cold and flu tothe Plague! Amongst other things raw garlic is used by some totreat the symptoms of acne and there is some evidence that it canassist in managing high cholesterol levels. It can even beeffective as a natural mosquito repellent.
Some people who want the claimed health benefits without thetaste prefer to take garlic supplements. These pills and capsuleshave the advantage of avoiding garlic breath.
Garlic Health Facts
Some of the old stories of garlic''s healing powers havedoubtful validity, but many of its properties have been backed upby modern scientific facts and research. There are two main medicalingredients which produce the garlic health benefits: allicin anddiallyl sulphides.
Garlic is a sulphurous compound and in general a strongertasting clove has more sulphur content and hence more potentialmedicinal value. Some people have suggested that organically growngarlic tends towards a higher sulphur level and hence greaterbenefit to health. In my experience it certainly has the besttaste.
Benefits
Modern science has shown that garlic is a powerful naturalantibiotic, albeit broad-spectrum rather than targeted. Thebacteria in the body do not appear to evolve resistance to thegarlic as they do to many modern pharmaceutical antibiotics. Thismeans that its positive health benefits can continue over timerather than helping to breed antibiotic resistant "superbugs".
Studies have also shown that garlic - especially aged garlic -can have a powerful antioxidant effect. Antioxidants can help toprotect the body against damaging free radicals.
