Most of us are vaguely aware of the medicinal, magical, and culinary properties of this life and health giving herb we call Garlic. For centuries, this bulb that the Romans called ''stinking rose'' has sustained health and happiness and the beauty of life.

When Garlic is cut or crushed, the allin forms allicin, which clinical tests have shown helps lower cholesterol and blood pressure. These two ailments are the biggest human killers in the World. But Allicin is also what gives Garlic its pungent odour.

Garlic originally comes from central Asia. Its actually a member of the lily family, closer to the bluebells than to leeks and onions. A staple of cooking and medicine in India and China since 200 BC. It survived down the centuries as a poor man's medicine and was known as ''old man's treacle''.

In Islam's spiritual world, Saint's often recommended to stick a Garlic clove coated with olive oil for earache, and against a tooth to cure toothache. More significantly, Garlic is a sure remedy against Colds by drying up excess catarrh, killing infections in the sinal passages and guarding against secondary infections. Garlic also helps relive asthma if you can get to use it in a steam inhalation. But to top it all Garlic does guard against stomach cancer. But for natural Garlic to have these effects you must eat it raw. And if you can't then Garlic is available in tablets, capsules and supplements

Student Angel Mother advises the whole World not to underestimate the raw miracle benefits of this heavenly gift. And all readers who read this post are requested to post and plant it forward.

The World needs to act! God bless you all!!
