HOW TO GROW GARLIC AT HOME, BE SURE YOU<br />

HAVE FRESHEST, ENDLESS SUPPLy<br />

Whenever I’m cooking, I love the part when I add garlic.<br />

It just fills my kitchen with such a lovely aroma, and<br />

makes my mouth water like crazy. And I have a secret<br />

for getting only the best-tasting garlic: I grow it at home!<br />

WHY GROW GARLIC?<br />

The thing about garlic is that it’s good in so many different<br />

ways. Not only does it add mouth-watering flavor to<br />

your favorite dishes (so versatile!), it’s also useful for a<br />

wide variety of natural health remedies. You don’t have<br />

to decide what you’ll be using your homegrown garlic<br />

for; trust me, it will always come in handy<br />

1. Immune System<br />

Garlic is a tried and true immune-boosting superfood.<br />

Research shows that people taking a daily garlic supplement<br />

can reduce their likelihood of catching colds and<br />

flus by a whopping 63%. Additionally, garlic is useful in<br />

treating stubborn Staph and strep infections. Many people<br />

also make their own garlic oil to help speed up the<br />

treatment of ear infections.<br />

2. Cardiovascular Health<br />

When you eat garlic with other foods, it helps your body<br />

deal with cholesterol better, and prevent it from being<br />

stored up. This will significantly lower your risk of heart<br />

disease and stroke. Garlic is also great for individuals<br />

suffering with high blood pressure. Eating garlic daily<br />

can lower hypertension by up to 8%.<br />

3. Cancer Prevention<br />

Researchers have discovered that the more garlic a person<br />

eats as a regular part of their diet, the more they can<br />

reduce their risk of stomach cancer, colorectal cancer,<br />

and liver cancer.<br />
