It is good for your heart. It has been used to treat hardening of the arteries and high blood pressure. Also, it is supposed to repel ticks. This info is from Web MD.
I found a lot more info on garlic on "The World's Healthiest Foods", they've done a lot of research and they actually cited their sources, so it _looks_ legitimate. Follow the link below to check out the full version. Here are some of their claims: anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, helps prevent cancer and heavy metal toxicity, and helps with weight control,.

It boosts immunity, is a potent anti-viral and anti-fungal. Aids in digestion and also helps cleanse the blood of toxins. I read a story some years ago about a doctor in northern Africa who treated plague or something equally deadly with immunizations made from crushed garlic. More than 75% of the population of that village survived.

Supposedly, garlic will lower your blood pressure if you eat it regularly.
I think it also may help regulate cholestrol.
I've heard the anti-cancer argument as well.

Your immune system mostly. It's supposed to keep fleas off your dog or cat if you give them garlic pills, so maybe it works for people too ??!!
