The benefits of garlic have been known for over 3,000 years. Hippocrates, the "Father of Medicine" used it in treating pneumonia and infected wounds. Ancient Chinese, Egyptian, and American Indian cultures made extensive use of the herb in healing methods.
Over 20 fungi, including the yeast candida albicans are sensitive to the herb. Many bacteria are also sensitive to it. It was used in Africa by Dr. Albert Schweitzer to treat cholera, typhoid fever, and typhus. Prior to the advent of modern antibiotics it was used in the treatment of tuberculosis.
Garlic has also been used to eliminate worms and parasites. The compounds it contains, allyl sulfide and allicin, have been shown to be active against hookworms, pinworms, tapeworms, and roundworms. Direct application to the skin has eliminated ringworm and athlete's foot fungi.
In addition, garlic is helpful in lowering blood pressure, triglyceride and cholesterol levels, and in reducing the threat of blood clots. It is also helpful in improving capillary blood flow.
