What are the effects and side effects of Garlic?
Posted by Jyotirmoy Roy on Thursday 08 Oct 2009
Sir, I have a small question on Garlic intake- It is a proven fact that intake of Garlic reduces cholesterol level as well as blood pressure. It has a thinning effect of blood. My question is that whether
1. it is useful for gastritis and other gas problem.
2. Due to thinning effect of blood and due to prolong intake, does it cause blood cancer or any other blood infection/injuries?
3. Raw intake of garlic causes any carcinogenic effect in longer duration?
Please give answer on my email. Thanking you
Sincerely,
Jyotirmoy Roy
