Garlic cures all

[suarez66]

I was told by a mountain man that if you put garlic in your mouth and swish it around with your saliva for 30 mins a day it clears your body of all ailments! Crazy!

garlic is actually toxic. don't believe me? cut it up into small pieces and see how fast your eyes water. that is because it is releasing something called allicin to protect it from being eaten

onions and garlic are both not something i recommend for that reason. a lot of people are downright intolerant to it.

Indeed.

Sounds like this mountain man was trying to sell you garlic...

Garlic has a lot of health benefits (so do onions) but so do lots of other vegetables

Sounds like a Chinese medicine to me.

It is the active ingredient allicin in garlic that has the health benefits. It is definitely not going to "cure all", but it is beneficial to your health.
