Historical use of garlic in medicine goes back centuries. Garlic contains many vitamins, minerals, iron, calcium, potassium, copper, and other nutrients that are essential to the human diet. Research has shown that garlic and its compounds may have anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral effects. Garlic may be neuroactive, meaning it can stimulate neural tissue. Additionally, garlic has other diverse benefits on health such as: Improved blood pressure, lower cholesterol, athletic performance, bone health, nutritional and gut health, anti-inflammation, anticancer, skin health, and heavy metal toxicity. You can supplement with garlic by eating raw or cooked garlic, or by taking commercially available garlic pills, tablets, capsules, or liquids. Garlic supplements may vary in strength, and they can react negatively with medications. It is thus important that you discuss taking garlic with your doctor before starting use.
