My mother says she can smell garlic on me for days after I eat it. I eat it anyway, and the strength of its “perfume,” which breathes through the pores of my skin, only further indicates to me that it is doing good to my blood. Garlic:
- keeps the mosquitos and vampires away.
- is antibacterial.
- loosens congestion, making it a great choice when you’re sick with a cough or cold.
- works to lower both your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
- is believed to be anti-carcinogenic.
