Garlic
A small but mighty bulb that has been used as food and medicine for thousands of years.
🌱 What it is
Garlic is a strong-smelling bulb in the onion family. The same compounds that give it that powerful smell are the ones that may help your body.
✨ How it may help
- May help support a healthy immune system
- Often linked with healthy blood pressure and circulation
- Adds big flavor with almost no calories
🥄 How to use it
Crush a fresh clove, let it sit for about 10 minutes, then add it to food. Light cooking keeps more of the good stuff than heavy frying.
⚖️ Caution
Raw garlic can upset some stomachs, and large amounts can thin the blood. Go easy if you take blood thinners.
