Its miraculous compounds Allicin and Ajoene have been attributed to many cures and disease reversals in our past history. Pre-Soviet Russia swore by the curing abilities of Garlic and during World War II it was known as Russian Penicillin. There are over 125 scientific papers about laboratory studies performed with Garlic since 1983.
Where does garlic excel in preventing disease?
-It kills germs...and some viruses that cause disease. -It lowers overall cholesterol and raises HDL...the good cholesterol. -Garlic raises overall immunity and resistance to disease. -It can be used to lower your blood pressure. -It is used for fighting infection. -It is used as anticoagulant(blood thinner). -It prevents and relieves chronic bronchitis, along with other lung diseases.
It is generally agreed that ingestion of 1/2 to 2 cloves of garlic in one form or another should give you all the health benefits you can receive from this miracle food, though it has been found that chopped or crushed raw garlic should give you the greatest overall benefits. The reason for this is that when garlic cloves are crushed or chopped, Allicin, the miraculous sulfur compound and bearer of garlic's strong odor is released and it is this Allicin compound which kills the bacteria and deadly viruses. Garlic can be purchased previously chopped, stored in water. Ajoene is also released when garlic is crushed or chewed and posesses similar medicinal properties as Allicin. This form must be refrigerated once it has been opened. Some people take a heaping teaspoon daily in order to keep their cholesterol and blood pressure in check. The real advantage is there are no known side effects.
Purchasing garlic is simple. Just check the whole bulbs for firmness without any green leaves protruding, indicating they have been around for a while.
It is believed by some homeopathic doctors that if garlic were ingested on a regular basis, the general level of sickness and disease would be greatly lowered and many of our hospitals would have more room to serve the more critical patients. |
