Garlic has been used for over 5000 years! This Ancient herb has many uses and what makes it significantly stand out is its use for colds, flus, chest infections, digestive disorders, fungal infections, and more. It has also been used in ancient times to ward off evil spirits. Remember those vampire movies from the 1900's where they used garlic to kill or ward off the vampires.
In ancient Korea, Koreans ate pickled garlic before a hike into the mountains or forests to ward off tigers lurking on the path. It was believed that the tigers hated the foul smell of garlic. There are many other uses and ancient stories of the wide-use of garlic! I can go on, but I will now begin to share what you can do with garlic!
