Garlic is one of nature's strongest, most complex, broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. Test show that garlic kills or cripples at least seventy-two infectious bacteria that spread diarrhea, dysentery, botulism, tuberculosis and encephalitis, among other diseases.
Onion, too, is an exceptionally strain antibiotic and anti-septic and was used to treat infections in wounded Russian troops during World War 11.
Food compounds destroy bacteria by several mechanisms, mainly by disrupting the bacteria's synthesis of protein, folic acid and transepts so they cannot multiply.
Blueberries and cranberries not only can inhibit bacteria, but also block their attachment to human cells.
Garlic is one of the most revered and oldest 'medicines' known to man. In 1858 Louis Pasteur noted that bacteria died when exposed to garlic.
Garlic has been proven superior to drugs in whipping out intestinal parasites. Low doses of fresh garlic, as well as garlic capsules, virtually wiped out symptoms of Gardie lambda infections in 26 children within one day! Stool examinations showed that all were completely cured within three days. In contrast, the doctors say drugs for guardians must be taken for a week and sometimes for ten days, "with possible undesirable aide effects."
