Garlic is a plant in the onion family that’s
grown for its distinctive taste and health benefits. It contains sulfur
compounds, which are believed to bring some of the health benefits.


Garlic supplements are known to boost the function of the immune system. It is very beneficial against eye and ear infections as it has antimicrobial properties. Currently, garlic is widely used for several conditions linked to the blood system and heart, including atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), high cholesterol, heart attack, coronary heart disease, and hypertension.


It contains antioxidants that support the body’s protective mechanisms against oxidative damage. The combined effects on reducing cholesterol and blood pressure, as well as the antioxidant properties, may reduce the risk of common brain diseases like Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.


Garlic appears to have some benefits for bone health by increasing estrogen levels in females, but more human studies are
needed. Digestive problems improve with the inclusion of raw garlic in the diet.
Garlic also lowers blood pressure so is good for patients with hypertension.

It helps prevent acne and lightens acne scars. Cold sores, psoriasis, rashes, and blisters can all benefit from the application of garlic juice.


Taking advantage of garlic’s benefits sometimes gets a little complicated. For example, the study linking garlic to improved immunity showed benefits came from raw and cooked garlic — not supplements.

Those are really awesome new benefits of garlic that I am learning about. It is one of the most present ingredients in the kitchen and one can think that the scope of it's use is just around the kitchen and for beauty use against acne. It is awesome to learn about it uses outside of the kitchen.

The most amazing thing about it is that it has the ability to fight bacteria and fungi. Then it can be used to repel rabbits from the market, that is just so awesome. Then it can be used as a mosquito repellent just by rubbing it on your skin. This is all so new to me.

I know it has so many advantage and disadvantage . One of the possible disadvantage of garlic is that consumption of garlic for a long time can affect your body odor and sometimes it can also affect your breath badly .so it may not really be advisable to use in most cases even when it has a lot of tremendous health benefits.

It could also be a source of major nutrients to the body but I don't really see the need for it , instead of that I rather look for a way of getting the nutrients garlic can offer from other natural supplements such as fruit and vegetable because those are the most preferred one for me .

I don't really like garlic generally because I dont just have the interest to use it for anything , I cannot Withstand the smell and so many other things concerning it , so I always try as much as possible to avoid it as much as possible since it is not something that really interests me.

I was so surprised about to find out that it has a tremendous function that it can also help to slow down inflammatory diseases such as asthma and arthritis .
