Garlic

Garlic's major usage throughout history was for its therapeutic benefits. The majority of these health benefits are attributed to a component known as allicin, which is also responsible for garlic's unique odor. Garlic supplementation is well known for its ability to treat illnesses, including the common cold. If you frequently catch a cold, including extra garlic in your diet might be really beneficial. There is also compelling evidence that it has a positive effect on heart health.

Garlic supplementation appears to lower total and/or LDL cholesterol by 10-15% in those with high cholesterol. Garlic supplementation has also been shown in human trials to significantly lower blood pressure in persons with high blood pressure. It was just as effective as a blood pressure medication in one research.
