If the drug companies could patent garlic, you would lose acess to one of the most inexpensive and effect herbs for treatment and prevention of heart disease. Along with its equally smelly cousin onions, garlic helps to lower blood pressure and keeps blood platelets from becoming 'sticky'.
Garlic oil or the juice of garlic has a significant protective quality to cells which help to reduce fatty deposits.

Preparation Methods :Garlic is available in capsules, but in my mind that spoils all the fun. Instead strive to use at least a few fresh cloves of garlic in your cooking everyday. And don;t forget the other members of the Allium genus, a branch of the lily family that also includes hundreds of varies of onions, leeks, chives, and shallots.
