Re: Can I vent please?/OLE??/NOW GARLIC

[Guest guest]

We use both!! I add to food of coarse! When a horrible bug strikes

our family we use the chopped form/then crush/swallow, kills the

virus by the next day typically! You can mix in something like

pudding, whipped creme and then makes easier to swallow!! Sometimes

we just go ahead and chew the stuff(especially if sore throat is

present)! I find that the pill form doesnt work as well with viruses

etc issues. But has worked well with my husbands blood pressure. I

think the pill form is to proccessed for viral. The ingredient

allican is activated once crushed/chewed and needs to be ingested

within a few minutes. When cooking with garlic, wait until the very

end of cooking befor adding. But pill form would be better than

nothing. I would recommend the oil form.
