An enormous amount of research has been done on the "stinking rose", otherwise known as garlic. Here are just a few of the amazing applications of this herbal powerhouse: Lowering cholesterol/thinning the blood Helping prevent cancer of the stomach Killing yeast, bacteria, and other harmful organisms that inhabit the intestines Treating vaginal yeast infections Preventing high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke Taking aged garlic is one way to eliminate the pungent stinging flavor. You can also take garlic oil capsules or simply put powdered garlic into capsules yourself. It tastes great sprinkled on a number of dishes, as well.
