some Garlic each day keeps the pounds away!

Garlic!  I cook with it all the flippin time!  I have few recipes that do not include it.  So I was elated when I saw Hungry Girl talked about garlic in their email today!  I did not realize how many health benefits it had!  Here’s HG’s write up…

How many herbs can help lower blood pressure, aid in cancer prevention, AND keep away vampires? An apple a day may not keep the doctor away, but a clove of garlic just might. Besides raising helpful good cholesterols and lowering evil ones, this “stinking rose” also acts as an antibiotic and anti-cancer agent. And like most herbs, it’s bursting with vitamins and minerals — manganese, calcium, iron, vitamins B1, B6 and C… the list goes on and on. And on. Garlic’s even been shown to help prevent weight gain! - Hungry Girl

Mmmm…so get cookin and make sure to throw in some garlic!
