Garlic
Garlic may not be to everyone’s taste but it sure is for everyone’s health. This delicious herb has been found to reduce inflammation, blood sugar and LDL cholesterol in people suffering from type 2 diabetes.
Its impressive health benefits don’t stop here. Garlic, especially garlic extract, can also reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure and protect you from cardiovascular diseases. This is due to the sulfur content which includes compounds like allicin, a very powerful natural remedy for high blood pressure.
One clove of raw garlic contains 1 gram of carbs and 4 calories. If you chew raw garlic, you will activate allinase for releasing maximum allicin. See other benefits of garlic in this post!
