Garlic

Garlic is a white bulb that houses segments, also called cloves, inside. With a very characteristic smell and taste, it is used a lot in the Mediterranean diet, especially for stews, and when cooked it is attributed anticoagulant qualities and helps reduce cholesterol levels. Its raw consumption is very popular among people because it is attributed benefits for the circulatory system, a quality little demonstrated; although it has been shown that it has antihypertensive properties, helping to prevent CVA or stroke, as well as favoring cardiac activity.
