Garlic is one of the oldest known medicinal plants, and it's been
credited with fighting heart disease, lowering blood pressure and
helping to fight off colds. Garlic is classified as both an herb and a
vegetable. It can be found in products ranging from ice cream to dry
rubs; the versatility of this herb is seemingly endless.
1. Protection of the liver from toxic substances:
Garlic activates the cells of the liver and thereby protects the liver
from toxic substances; it also rejuvenates a tired liver and promotes
its normal functioning.
2. Improvement of blood circulation:
When garlic is crushed or chopped, a substance called allicin is
released. This substance has a suppressive effect on thrombi and blood
cholesterol, so it is effective for the treatment of atherosclerosis and
thrombosis.
3. Regulation of stomach function:
Allicin promotes the secretion of gastric juices by stimulating the
mucous membranes of the stomach; furthermore, it combines with proteins
which can reduce excessive activity of the stomach. In addition, allicin
regulates the functioning of the stomach by activating the large
intestine and thus cure both constipation and diarrhea.
4. Promotion of insulin secretion:
Allicin combines with vitamin B1 (thiamine) to activate the function of
the pancreas and thus promote insulin secretion. As a result, garlic is
effective in the prevention or the cure of diabetes that is caused by a
lack of insulin or by the defective functioning of the pancreas.
5. Normalization of blood circulation:
Because it stimulates the brain nerves and controls the workings of the
heart at a constant level, garlic stabilizes blood pressure. It is also
capable of dissolving cholesterol and fatty substances inside blood
vessels and therefore refreshing cells and the blood inside the body.

* Lower blood pressure
* Reduce the risk of blood clots (that are respon
