It helps reduce cold & eases the inflammation. Studies have shown that the consumption of garlic may lower high blood pressure. It appears that garlic may ‘thin’ the blood for a short time, which will reduce the risk of clotting. Blood thinning is not always good, but with many individuals’ blood, due to diet and lifestyle factors, prone toward clotting, may lead to cardiovascular conditions such as atherosclerosis, thrombosis and stroke.
