The only real concern with garlic is that, as it can help thin the blood, it should be taken only moderately if you are taking medicinal drugs to thin the blood. For example, Warfarin. However, many people do take Warfarin and eat garlic in their food, so clearly this is not a huge issue. But we would warn you to be cautious when taking extra supplementary garlic if you are taking drugs like this.

Occasionally, slight digestive side-effects may occur when taking garlic. A few people may be sensitive to it, or find that for some reason it does not suit them. For example, it may produce indigestion or loose bowels, so, if you are starting, take it with caution at first.

It is also suggested that a medical herbalist should be consulted if using anything but a minimal dose of a Garlic supplement for a child under 7 years old.

Garlic has been used for thousands of years in cooking; but also the health benefits of garlic have made it a favourite with herbalists.

Garlic health benefits make it valuable for assisting in:
