Treatment with garlic

Garlic seed( Allium sativum L.) is a perennial herbaceous bulbous plant of the lily family with flat linear leaves with small flowers collected in umbrellas. The curative properties of this plant were known to the Sumerians, which for about 2300 years BC.began to be used to relieve heat, treat tumors and poisoning. The ancient Egyptians widely used it to prevent and treat infectious diseases in slaves engaged in building pyramids. Legionnaires and gladiators of ancient Rome actively used it to increase strength in combat campaigns and gladiatorial battles, and Claudius Galen, using garlic in his balm, sought the full recovery of wounded gladiators.

Avicenna considered it a remedy for all diseases. Western medicine also drew attention to the medicinal properties of garlic. But a truly scientific study of the healing properties of garlic began only in the seventies of this century.

The name of garlic reflects all the taste characteristics: "burning", sharp. The characteristic sharp taste and strong smell caused by essential oil, determine the food use of garlic. In addition to the essential oil consisting of sulfur compounds, the garlic contains nitrogenous substances, glycoside, alliin, phytosterols, metal salts, vitamins C( 10 mg%), B, B, PP, E, A, a multitude of trace elements, of which the most important for the bodyzinc, selenium, germanium. And the most powerful components are found not in fresh, but kept in the cold garlic. On the useful properties of garlic, see here.

Healing properties of garlic are known to man since ancient times. Garlic was tried to treat all known diseases - and it must be said that in quite a large percentage of cases this brought a certain result.

Say, if you do not have a completely healthy heart, any doctor will prescribe medications containing potassium, vascular disorders - vitamin-mineral complexes, catarrhal diseases, anemia - iron.

It is enough to return to the previous section to see: all these substances are contained in garlic.

But we should start with another: garlic is the strongest disinfectant that affects viruses, carriers of diseases, no matter how it gets into the body. Moreover, the disinfecting effect of sulfides( sulfur compounds) is enhanced by the presence in garlic of allicin, which, as already mentioned, can be considered a rather strong antibiotic.

Among the other beneficial effects of garlic on the human body, the following should be mentioned first:

Already in ancient manuscripts we find recommendations to consume garlic in heavy physical exertion and for the speedy recovery of health after a serious illness.

Simultaneously, garlic positively affects the composition of blood and the state of blood vessels, saturates vitamins and salts of rare metals, that is, the action is complex.

Perhaps, for this reason, pediatricians recommend garlic preparations for weakened children who suffer from dysbacteriosis. In children, by the way, very often gastrointestinal diseases are cured with garlic alone.

Especially it should be said about the benefits of regular consumption of garlic in food for severe and chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system.

At the end of the last century, the University of Pennsylvania( USA) issued a special bulletin, which is entitled: "Garlic reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases."American studies have shown that garlic lowers blood cholesterol. Recall that cholesterol plaques in atherosclerosis are the main reason for narrowing the lumen of blood vessels and serious blood flow disorders that can eventually lead to such serious diseases as myocardial infarction, stroke, etc.

On the "anticholesterol" effectgarlic, folk healers have known for a long time, but now scientific medicine on the basis of experimental data claims: Yes, due to the regular use of fresh garlic or preparations based on it, the blood cholesterol level is reduced in a separatex cases by 12-16%.

A distinctive feature of garlic is the ability of elements of its chemical composition to enter into a quick connection with organic substances, which provides a high preventive effect.

It should not be forgotten that the amount of garlic compounds directly depends on the condition of the plant itself: the untouched, whole head is practically neutral, but after the mechanical treatment( for example, rubbed, crushed or simply shredded garlic not only contains the already mentioned useful substancesminerals, organic acids, pectins, vitamins), but it activates many compounds - sulfur and others, so in most recipes it is indicated that it is desirable to cook fresh garlic
