note that garlic supplementation is before one goes on HAART. After, many combinations do not go well with garlic supplements, but its ok to eat garlic in food.

I grow garlic, and eat about a head a day, in food, and cooking.
It cleans your blood, and helps your stomach to settle.
You don't get garlic breath if you cook it first, and its really nice.
It's amazing how your body know what it needs, and I love Garlic.

Garlic role or not it always gives me the worst purging ever ;), but used work well for my teeth ravages which seem to occur too frequently. It did save from over visiting the dentist even if the bills are supported by my employers. I had to stop eating garlic with total unwillingness.
