1: Treats common cold- Garlic is used as a medicine to cure the recurring common cold. If a running nose and congested chest area is troubling you; a good dose of garlic can help you ease it!
2: Reduces weight- Garlic reduces the excessive fat in the human body, eventually causing a decrease in overall weight. Consume garlic regularly for effective weight reduction.
