Garlic has antifungal and antibiotic qualities with the presence of Allicin.

Your tooth was obviously infected which was the reason for the ache.

Allicin kills a lot of bacteria on contact and most bacteria cannot develop any resistance to it.

However, Allicin is only active within the first 10 to 15 minutes of a garlic clove being crushed. Its the cruchinf of the garlic that triggers the production of Allicin. After this time frame, the garlic is useless

Thanks for this info

I also frown at the smell and I'm not sure why

Whether it's because it's associated with Indians (I don't hate them o) or whether it's simply just the smell?

Is garlic good for ulcer patients? I must get rid of the terrible stomach ulcer this year. So help me God!


The only method that cure ulcer is precautions and the grace of God.


Stay away finally from these foods

Garri

Eba

Roasted junks e.g yam

Don't eat over brown bread (make sure soak your bread in tea)

Stay away from fufu

Minimize / don't take peppery food

Cure
Drink coconut water often

Take honey everyday

Take at least 3 dates fruit a day

Eat before you feel hungry

If possible try to eat cabin biscuit in the midnight even if you are not hungry.

Try to eat light dessert if possible every 30min before the real meal.

After 3 months of following these precautions I believe you will ask for my account number... Smiles!!!

Eat banana often

Garlic also reduces the restopitin of the body which gives way for the Valonin in the red blood cell to produce some useful paraleniosis.

Yes you will smell of it in the morning simply because you chewed it, this is because garlic's strong smelling sulfur compounds are metabolized, forming allyl methyl sulfide. Allyl methyl sulfide cannot be digested and is passed into the blood and is also excreted through the skin.

Garlic has a way of inhibiting platelet fxn, thereby reducing risks of thrombus formation and arteriosclerosis. In other words, over use of garlic can encourage thrombocytopenia and cause mucosal bleeding.

Please can you elaborate on this thrombcytopenia, never heard of it though, and I take garlic, ginger with cucumber often. Sometimes, daily for a month stretch. What other side effects may be anticipated in the case long usage or consumption of garlic?

Blood contains three kinds of cells namely;
1.Red blood cells or Erythrocytes (main fxn is to transport oxygen around the body),
2. White blood cells or Leucocytes ( main fxn is defense)
3. Platelets or Thrombocytes.(main fxn is in blood clot formation during injuries to prevent unnecessary blood loss)
Garlic contains chemicals that affects Platelets or thrombocytes, thereby reducing their efficiency in clot formation when necessary. Excessive or long term use of garlic, aspirin, warfarin or products that contain these chemicals can reduce the number of Platelets in ur blood and increase the risk of bleeding especially in pregnancy. A reduced amount of thrombocytes or Platelets is called thrombocytopenia.

A leaf called Parsley significantly reduces the garlic odor when eaten.

It's also excellent for kidney afflictions.
