Garlic Side
Effects
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.
