The Health Benefits of Garlic

Garlic contains almost 80 sulfur compounds. Organic sulfur is famous for its healing and infection fighting ability. Garlic also contains an extremely powerful sulfuric compound called Allicin which is released when ever garlic cells are crushed, bruised or damaged. Allicin makes garlic one of the most popular natural alternatives to antibiotics. Like penicillin, alllicin kills bacteria, fungus, microbes and protozoa in the digestive tract. This makes garlic one of the world's most effective all natural broad spectrum antibiotics. It has been proven in the laboratory to kill every bacteria known, yet unlike antibiotics, it does not harm your own intestinal flora. A truly amazing food additive, particularly when first crushed. Supplements are of course also effective.
