Garlic may be beneficial for both heart health and cancer prevention.
Population studies have found that people who report eating more garlic have half the risk of stomach cancer and appear to have lower overall cancer rates.
When it comes to heart health, garlic may play a role in helping to improve artery function and blood flow, slowing progression of atherosclerosis, and lowering cholesterol.
And it doesn't take much garlic to provide benefits. For example, a randomized study on heart disease patients found that those taking garlic powder twice a day for three months had a significant boost in their artery function. They achieved a 50 percent increase in artery function taking only 800 mg of garlic powder a day—just a daily quarter-teaspoon.
Including garlic in our daily meals is a flavorful and simple way to help improve our health.
