years ago, one of my Doctors told me I needed to bring down my blood pressure. He said to try a clove of garlic each day.
so I went by an Italian store and bought a bag of Garlic.
I like garlic so started eating it with everything trying to figure out how to put that much Garlic into my diet each day...
the gas was intense, people would run for thier lives when I let one rip, but I kept eating garlic...
I went back to the doctor 2 weeks later and my blood pressure had dropped 30 points...
I told him I was eating a clove of garlic a day showing him the size of a bulb and he Laughed...
he said a clove is just one of the pieces...
heheh oops...
a friend had Hemorrhoids that he had been fighting for years, I did a search to see what I could learn, the Greek had found an answer a few thousand years ago, they would crush Garlic with aloe plant and poke it up inside...
He hasn't had a problem since, when it starts to act up he gives it a treatment and poof, its gone...
and as for Garlic affecting psychic abilities...
I eat garlic daily...
