I'm generally a garlic freak. Sometimes I do run out and then go
without for a few days or sometimes even weeks. When I do, it does
cause facial marks on me and I'm convinced that it's the heavy metals and
whatever else garlic chases out.
Yes the ancient Egyptians ate garlic, even refused to work unless they had
it. Didn't learn until recently that the reason they shaved their heads
(as you see in many of the pictograms of Egypt) is because of head lice. I
know that garlic will kill all parasites in the intestinal tract and some claim
that it keeps mosquitoes away, though I've never been successful with it.
I don't know how it has turned out, but at one time they were testing garlic in
Africa because it supposedly kills the malaria bug in human bodies. The
malaria bug is a parasite not a virus or bacteria. I see all sorts of
other gunk taken for parasites and I know that all you need is garlic.
