--

The key medicinal qualities are thought to come from allicin, a short-lived compound that forms from two chemicals combining when raw garlic is minced, crushed or chewed.

When eaten, freshly chopped garlic's antimicrobial goodness spreads through the body.

"Garlic's volatile oils are excreted through the lungs, which makes it helpful for any infection or inflammation in the respiratory system." says naturopath Tyson Hammond of Wellgrounded Healthcare.

"In the digestive system, it can kill any infections or pathogens within the digestive tract & be beneficial for the gut flora."
