Garlic is Good for Health

(For the title, use some phrase that "pegs" the work. For example, "Harms of Global Warming" or "General Book on Global Warming".)

Finding and Link Works Cited Tweed, Vera, and VERA TWEED. "CHECK OUT: SUPPLEMENTS. GARLIC: MYTH, MAGIC, OR FACT?." Better Nutrition 72.11 (2010): 24-25. Academic Search Complete. EBSCO. Web. 23 Feb. 2011.

Summary/Reconstruction More than 650 studies have shown that a proprietary Aged Garlic Extract (AGE) produces benefits for the heart. These include reversing plaque build-up in arteries, a key goal of most therapies to prevent or treat heart disease. Before antibiotics were invented, garlic was used to treat infectious diseases. When taw (not aged) garlic is crushed, chopped or chewed, it releases allicin, a substance that fights bacteria, fungi, and inflammation. However, when we eat garlic, most of the allicin destroyed by stomach acid. Some garlic supplements are made with a special coating, often described as "enteric," that enables the allicin in garlic to fight bugs internally, without being destroyed by stomach acid. Your Name
