Last summer a couple of my kids had strep throat. That was when I discovered the amazing benefits of odorless garlic pills. I get Nature's Bounty from Walgreens They are often on sale, and not a bad deal full price.
I was taking the garlic pills when my kids had strep figured it won't hurt and might help me stay well. I have continued to take them for the last six to eight months. I take between one and four a day. (Four a day when I have a UTI as they do seem to help, along with other remedies.)
I have been exposed to very much sickness this winter. Covid, Flu, Coughs, Colds, etc. I have helped take care of sick toddler grandchildren many, many times, and thank God, I have not been sick once.
I was always skeptical of odorless garlic pills. How was that going to help at all? But I have had to swallow my pride with my garlic pills.
I also noticed how much better my allergies are. I am allergic to cats and we have an indoor cat. I am a chronic nose-blower but realize how few tissues I have needed and that the cat bothers me less.
The pills are not totally odorless. I have children that think they are very nasty. But I don't mind it and the ones I get are easy to swallow. If I take a ton, my husband says I do smell mildly of garlic.
Anyway, I think odorless garlic deserves a reserved space in the medicine cabinet!

Garlic Tea

Here's a great Garlic Recipe for ingesting or making into a tea.
*6-7 large cloves of finely minced Garlic
*1Tablespoon Raw Honey ( Make sure it is RAW Honey). Raw honey in itself is a powerful food loaded with enzymes. The junk honey you find on grocery shelves is refined and useless.
*Add a very tiny sprinkle of Cyanne Pepper appox. 1/6 tsp. or smaller. Cyanne pepper is a high source of Vit C.
* Put a teaspoon in mouth, chew and swallow as often as needed. I guess you can just swallow, but I chew it to release the potent allicin, then swallow. You can also put this into a tea with some lemon and other added super foods like tumeric, a bit of ginger, lemongrass or whatever you desire. Yum. I add a hint of stevia also.
Even without any symptoms, I take 1 teaspoon of this recipe at least 3-4 times a week to stay fit and well.
Hope this gave you all a laugh and helps!
How grateful I am for the healing herbs of Mother Nature. Love and Many Blessings of Wellness to you all.

History of Garlic
★★★★★
Summary
I think raw garlic placed on external skin for long enuf would ulcerate anyones' skin. I would not assume I was allergic to it, for that reason. It also done my skin that way.
However, the word on the street, is that USA stores are now selling chinese grown garlic. This garlic is said to test for prescence of arsenic..... Per this message board
My recent experience with side effects from taking no-brand garlic internally, seems to support this. [ I seemed to get side effects indicating possible poisoning. ] Before the chinese garlic was imported to the USA, I had no problems with taking garlic internally, and got some benefits.
Maybe we are all being poisoned via our food supply now.
I am going to start buying the USA GROWN brand garlic, grown in California. Christophers Ranch brand, to see is side effects go away.

Garlic Paper Protection
★★★★★
I was so thankful to read here about how garlic was helping everyone miraculously but also burning so bad it couldn't be done very long.
I normally make a lemon garlic drink and it helps abscesses shrink. Use 1/2 lemon with the rind and seeds. Put it in the blender with one whole garlic bud (clove piece) add a spoon of manuka honey and blend to make a pleasant drink.
I have my lower right molar broken. Got some swelling and complete right jaw pain that's been very uncomfortable for a couple days.
I was praying what to do cause nothing was totally solving the problem. I had the impression to see if ACV would do the trick. So I did online search that led to this site. I read these reviews and determined to "bite the bullet" (garlic). My husband had bought me many sets of fresh garlic when I asked him to get me "some".
As I broke a garlic clove bud off, I noticed the paper around it like a present. I realized by the Spirit that why take it all off. So I cut it in half. I took one half with the raw exposed cut side down on my tooth but it felt awkward so I took it out and got the other side of garlic and cut some various chopping lines on it so it would fit more comfortably.
I've had this on my affected tooth for one hour - no problem.✨
My tooth doesn't hurt, my tongue and gums are protected by the garlic paper covering. But I felt an instant constant pleasant warming sensation all over the abscess swelling area as the raw cut exposed garlic side was on the hurting tooth top molar pressing down on the paper.
Just thought I'd let you all know you don't have to suffer the burning garlic since the burning part is just on the tooth itself with the cut side and fresh raw garlic touching only the tooth.
I believe this is an answer to prayer. Thanks to Jesus and whatever Angel was sent to guide me and I'll send a later update. But currently my tooth doesn't hurt and no burning anywhere.
I'll make some fried chopped potato with chopped onions and mashed garlic, fried in coconut oil next since I got lots of garlic. Eat garlic, drink garlic and wear it on your tooth.
Rabies - Mad Dog Bite

LETTERS and INTERVIEWS: EXPERIENCES with RABIES
The following letter was written by Dr. Rush to a patient who had been to the South for his health and was returning to his family in New York. It was reprinted from The Boston Medical and Surgical Journal (Dec. 30,1909), to whom it came from the descendants of the patient:
Garlic taken in substance, that is, a bruised clove three times a day, or in infusion, that is, eight or ten cloves bruised and put into a pint of peppermint tea, of which a wineglassful should be taken three times a day.
From the book; The Medical Standard, Vol. XXXIII, February 1910, page 59 – 60.
Plinius (Pliny the Elder), the Roman Naturalist (AD 23/24–79), states that Garlic is an excellent remedy for mad dog bite. Dr. Holuby in his works on “Slowakischen Volksmedizin” relates how a woman having been bitten by a mad dog become raving and no remedy was known. She was thrown into a cell in which there happened to be hanging a wreath of Garlic and in her mad furor she bit into the garlic and ate it. Presently she fell into a deep sleep and awoke completely cured.

Also, recently I ate something that caused me to become ill. I didn't know what it was but it seemed much like a stomach virus. I had bad diarrhea for four days straight and could not keep any food in me. I ate less and less because It was no use to eat. Then I remembered that garlic is also anti-viral. So I went into the kitchen and took two big cloves, sliced them very thin and gulped them down with water. (Prior to this I was feeling very on the edge of having to run to the bathroom all the time), but within minutes, MINUTES! I could feel a change in my stomach and the urge to run to the bathroom disappeared. It didn't come back.
Whatever bug I had, the garlic whippped it. For the rest of the day I felt normal and was even able to eat meals without any reoccurrence.
I myself cannot praise the virtues of garlic enough. It's safer then taking many prescription drugs and for me it's always kicked in rigt away after ingesting it. It's cured me when I was "sicker then a dog" so to speak.
Garlic is a true healer of just about whatever ails ya!

1. I cut a clove of garlic and smeared the juice on it.
2. I put a cut clove on it with a band aid and left it on for 15 minutes.
3. I minced the garlic and put some juice on it.
(DANGER) 4. I made garlic paste with extra virgin olive oil. Crushed/minced up garlic, add extra virgin olive oil. Put it in a glass jar. It turns into a paste (like jam or jelly). I left it on for 1 hour. I made a mistake. I should had left it on for only 15 minutes. I burned my skin.
WARNING: Only leave it on for 15 minutes. The cyst is gone. The garlic killed it.

For approximately 1 year I have had recurring bouts of strep throat and viral throat infections. These occurred every few months or so. 6 months ago I have was sick continuously for 2 months. I had NO energy and difficulty swallowing. My throat was always felt like it was on fire. Often it was bright red and/or covered in white spots. I was prescribed rounds of antibiotics and even had to take 3 penicillin shots. Nothing worked. UNTIL.
For about 3-4 weeks I drank fresh garlic (2 cloves crushed), ginger, honey, and lemon tea. I did this 3-4 times a day. Approximately 1 week after starting this course, I began to feel better. 2 weeks later I was 100% again. I still drink the tea and/or chew a piece of raw garlic whenever I feel a scratch in my throat or a little under the weather.
The best side effect for me was that the garlic tea course has also almost completely cleared up the acute toenail fungus I had on the majority of my nails. It was so bad that my two big toenails were almost completely yellow and hardened with areas of black; they even had begun to separate from the nail beds. For the first time in 3 years I can go nail polish free.
I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THE HEALING PROPERTIES OF GARLIC.

Garlic also cures my recurring cold sores on my lips. As soon as I feel one coming on, I slice a clove of garlic and hold it firmly to the sore until it goes numb. I have to be honest that it hurts like nothing I have ever felt, but because it has worked so well, I endure it for 10 minutes or so. I swear I can feel it burning the infection away! Immediately the bump goes down and often does not even scab, just goes away.

After reading your post, A light bulb clicked on. I need to be taking chopped raw garlic like my dog takes. I actually was able to take it down mixed in a tablespoon of olive oil. I tried before and couldn't stand it. It's pretty easy with the olive oil. I got that from another poster on this board. I love this site and thanks for posting.
