Title: All you ever wanted to know about Garlic
Post by: Jeannine on June 18, 2007, 15:01:07
I have noticed a couple of garlic postings and wanted this one to stand out so have started a new thread for it.

It is very interesting, with tons of info and tips, I can't think of one question it doesn't answer. It is US so no good for bulbs but take a look

Enjoy,don't miss the bit about healing with it.

There was a programme on TV about 6 months ago where they ate something like 2 raw bulbs a day for 2 months & they were all able to er, be more manly apart from one of them. They must've stunk!

Jeannine, as much as I love Garlic, I think it would actually hurt to eat that much. And no, I mean in the throat/stomach department!

Chew some parsley after eating it and your breath should be OK.  Don't know about the other bits, though  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
