Summary:
Garlic may improve cardiovascular health, immune function, antimicrobial action and anticancer activity according to Mayo Clinic nutrition specialists.
A key element is the sulfur-containing compound called allicin that is activated when garlic is cut or crushed.
Proper doses and choosing the best form to take garlic are still undecided.
Conclusion:
It is probably best to include garlic as a food source in your diet, but if the taste or smell is offensive, supplementation may be as effective.
