Introduction:
Today I want to talk about garlic and the health benefits that accrue from its consistent use. You are all conversant with the saying: “An apple a day keeps the doctor a way”. Borrowing from that I want to state: “A clove a day to keep the doctor away”

I will blog about garlic and blood lipids, the immune system and some noted side effects.

1. BLOOD LIPIDS
     • Reduces Cells Production Of Fat
     • Increases The Breakdown Of Fats
     • Lowers LDL Cholesterol
     • Raises HDL Cholesterol
     • Inhibits Platelet Aggregation
     • Lowers Blood Pressure
     • Prevents Formation Of Clots In Bloodstream
     • Lowers blood sugar levels by raising insulin levels

2. THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Garlic stimulates specific white blood cells which cause the following benefits:

     • carbon particles cleared from bloodstream
     • increased production of antibodies
     • cancer cells destroyed
     • tumor cells destroyed

Note: Garlic is best eaten raw. Cooking can destroy some of the “allicin” compound which is responsible for the powerful healing effects of garlic.

3. SIDE EFFECTS

     • Garlic breath.
     • Allergies
        i. skin rash,
       ii. temperature
        iii. headaches
    • disrupt anti-coagulants, so always avoid it before surgery

Note: As with any medicine, always and always check with your doctor first and tell your doctor if you are using it.

In my next blog, I will look at Onions and their benefits to our health. Remember a healthy body will always lead to a healthy, powerful mind.
