Garlic has been used for both food and medicine for centuries, dating as far back as the time of the Egyptian pyramids. Garlic has been used for a variety of fungal, bacterial, and viral infections. It is also shown to maintain cholesterol levels already in a healthy range.

A 2003 study found that garlic helps lower levels of a harmful agent known as homocysteine, but more research is needed.

Vitabase Odorless Garlic, a specially concentrated extract from whole-clove garlic, is aged 18 months to remove the odor. It provides high levels of scordinin, which is believed to be responsible for garlic's well-known benefits.
