Garlic is one of nature's best anti-aging agents. It is a powerful immune system booster, blood purifier, anti-inflammatory agent, antioxidant and the list goes on. Studies have shown measurable health benefits to eating fresh garlic daily. Approximately one clove of fresh garlic a day can help keep the doctor away. Eating a clove a day can:
- improve brain health and agility
- reduce the chances of catching a cold by up to 63%
- boost the immune system in general
- strengthen your bones
- improve stamina
- decrease hypertension
- increase circulation
- boost heart health
- detox the body of heavy metals
- act as a natural pain remedy
- heal allergiesSteaming, sauteing or roasting garlic will mellow the flavor and odor, if that is a concern. Raw garlic chopped, pureed or sliced is very, very good for the body, however, it can create stomach upset for some. One clove a day can easily be worked into salads, soups, main dishes, smoothies and side dishes. Challenge yourself to eat a clove a day for one month and notice the impact on your allergies, your circulation or any aches and pains you regularly put up with.
