The Healing Power of Garlic

The wonders of garlic

It is unthinkable that we could ever do without this flavour-enhancing "trendy bulb" in our kitchens, so indispensible has it become to our cooking. But its healing power has also been known and appreciated over the centuries. Garlic exerts a wide-ranging effect on infections, can help reduce tension in the gastrointestinal area, and works as a prophylactic against arterial sclerosis, heart attack and stroke. Along with describing further surprising properties as a medicinal and beauty agent, this book outlines its varied range of applications, with a particular focus on cancer-prevention as based on the latest in cutting-edge research. A manual that reveals the many talents of garlic.
