Garlic Health Benefits – Cure Common Disorders at Home

For thousands of years, in many cultures, garlic has been used as both food and medicine. The word garlic come from Old English garleac, meaning "speer leek." Throughout human history, garlic has been both sought after for its healing powers and shunned for its strong odor.

Fortunately, now modern medicine is starting to embrace garlic as an alternative to prescription drugs.

Garlic is very rich in antioxidants. It has been shown to kill 23 types of bacteria.


Vitamins in garlic, such as A, B, and C, stimulate the body to fight carcinogens and get rid of toxins.

It may even aid in preventing certain types of cancer, such as stomach cancer.

Garlic's sulfur compounds can regulate blood sugar metabolism, stimulate and detoxify the liver, as well as stimulate blood circulation and the nervous system.
