Garlic

Garlic is a member of the onion family and is used quite broadly in cooking around the world. It’s a nutrient-dense food that also happens to be very low in calories. It’s a particularly good source of Vitamin C, Vitamin B-6, and Manganese. The sulfur compounds found in Garlic are believed to be responsible for the myriad of health benefits associated with its consumption.

Garlic supplements are believed to support the immune system and may reduce the severity of colds, flus, and other common ailments. It also has cardiovascular benefits as it seems to have a significant impact on lowering blood pressure and a positive impact on lowering cholesterol and LDL levels. Through a refinement process, all of the nutrients and sulfur compounds can be concentrated without retaining garlic’s notoriously powerful odor.
