Do you refrigerate it? In America they're constantly warning people not to do this because of Botulism. Do you every hear of any problems with this? I store my tomatoes, basil and garlic all together in olive oil in the fridge. They basically are trying to scare anyone from food preserving when they can.
Dr Berg I'm 63 years old, I eat head of raw garlic every weekend. Even though my wife and my daughters complained about the garlic smell. Moreover I never stopped eating because of their complained, the good thing I'm very healthy and never been in the hospital in my entire life. I'm eating garlic since I was 17 years old.
Considering Dr. Berg here shares how that just the smell of garlic kills off bacteria (and probably viruses too), then when your family complains about the smell, point this out, and then tell them that the smell of garlic within your breath is potentially doing that too, so after that explanation, then say "you're welcome".
a while head? …or a single clove? I’m very curious. Also do you use it in food or beverage or cooked? I’m always looking for more garlic delivery systems.
I was so sick in October ( Covid, flu and strep was negative). I had cough, chest congestion, fatigue, chills, nasal stuffiness!! I was desperate to get better. A lady at the health food store said take garlic and I was better in 24 hours after 10 long days of suffering!! It works!
OMG I’m exactly in this situation right now. I went to Urgent Care yesterday and every test including Covid came out negative. Since last night I took garlic tea feel so much better slept better and am drinking garlic tea now. Praying that my infection gets cured with garlic🙏🏻😔
My grandmother used to heat oil in a pan,and fry garlic garlic till they turn golden brown . And she would put it in a bottle. She used to rub the oil all over our chest ,back and neck when we have cold/cough. It works faster than medicine.
True but heat dose destroy some of the value according to my spirit quid , and if she used vegetable oil to cook it in ,well vegetable oils are toxins them selves. I do make a dish cooked with ghee butter ,garlic ,onion and mushrooms , very energetic and healing 😋 Peace and love ❤️ 😍 💖
@@chuckiegravesfield3170 sorry all heat destroyed the value of garlic ,when I add to my meals. Or my garlic ghee butter smoothie. I crush the garlic stir in the last thing or add on top salad. Raw and fresh , sorry but I listen to my spirit quid only , not you or no one else ,raw garlic is the best blood purifier known to man , heat destroy some of that value , LOL
I drink 16oz of water daily with the following added. Lemon, garlic, ginger, apple cider vinegar, turmeric, pepper and Himalayan salt. Been doing this for many years. Simply, easy, and effective!
@@gregbishop77 Half a lemon, two garlic cloves, (do garlic every other day cause the scent can seep through your skin) apple cider vinegar (start with a tablespoon and work up to two tablespoons) with the Himalayan salt, pepper and turmeric, suite to taste. You will have to experiment with it because the taste can be strong. There is no formula. The key is to make sure you develop a habit of doing it daily. It’s a staple I have been doing for many years. It will help prevent you from catching colds. If you do get it, it will leave much faster if you are constantly drinking it each morning. ✝️ P.S. Use a garlic press to crush the garlic and ginger.
My dad has been taking garlic soaked in organic honey for years and he has the most amazing flat stomach for a 68 year old man...thank you dr Berg for shinning light in the benefits of garlic!
@@xfactor3000, there are two ways. 1) Put whole cloves in small bottle. Pour in enough honey to cover the chives. 2) Cut cloves into small pieces and put in small jar. Pour in enough honey to cover the chives. The following applies to both methods: Put lid on bottle and shake. Shake once every day to ensure garlic is covered with honey. Every day, loosen the cap to let it 'burp', then tighten again. In 20 days, the garlic is ready to be consumed.
My family is Russian. My grandmother used to simmer garlic in whole, full fat milk when we were young. Yes, full fat milk is important because the fats pull out a lot of the active constituents of the garlic. Not the best tasking brew, but it really worked, I tell you. We never went to the doctor as kids because my grandmother took care of everything at home. We were also very rarely sick because she'd nip things in the bud. The longest I ever had a sore throat living with her was less than 24 hours. Goldenseal is also an amazing natural antibiotic.

I had a checkup and my doctor sent me to a specialist because my triglycerides were high for my age, and they wanted to check if I had a genetic component prone to angina and high blood pressure. I was told I probably had to start taking medicines. For the 2 weeks from my first specialist checkup until i met the specialist a second time, I ate 3 cloves of garlic every day, because i had heard of the benefits. When I returned, just 2 weeks later, my triglycerides and blood pressure had normalized and the specialist happily said that whatever im doing, i should just keep doing, because there was no need for medication. Go garlic!
My father consumes 3-4 cloves of garlic every morning on empty stomach since 2013.... believe me I have never seen any doctor not admiring his Triglycerides and cholesterol level.... They even ask him how he manages to keep them under 150 all time...my father never answers this because if he will tell him they will surely disregard him or scold him for such vague claims. I have myself tried to tell people but it seems no one wants free advice.
Good morning. Does he get it from any store location? Curious because of learning about where the majority of our garlic comes from and its process. Thanks

I GROW MY OWN GARLIC and as a 3 person family we consume about 500 bulbs as well as sauerkraut loaded with garlic and honey garlic ferment…im not keto…whole foods, healthy fats, moderate protein
Using my body as a science experiment, Doc. I eat a clove or two of raw Garlic every day. Crushed then waiting 15 minutes before consuming just like you taught in another video. Also doing a teaspoon of fresh rosemary and about a quarter cup of broccoli sprouts as well as an avocado a day. Slowly switching over to organic produce as well. 83lbs gone in 35 weeks. Just turned 62, feeling like I'm 42. Thanks for the good info, I'll check out the fermenting recipe in the near future. Been watching your videos on my Smart TV, but I can't figure out how to give a thumbs up or write a comment on it, so I'm resorting to my phone. You rock, Doc!
I turn 92 next mont, but I never been diagnosed any of those problems... Thanks for the raw garlic and honey until im still healthy and have a strong bones and muscle always... my BP stay in 110-115/76/78..praise god!
Raw garlic is an essential part of my daily diet. I consume four cloves a day when I get home from work and wait an hour before eating a modest meal. Cloves are various sizes so I attempt to eat in total the equivalent of four cloves the size of the first joint of my thumb. Following Dr. Berg's advice on garlic and other topics, my lab work has continued to steadily improve as has weight loss (50 pounds). I enjoy the white board sessions that break down how what we eat affects our bodies.
@@leoray1234 I consume one clove by removing the skin, cutting it into smaller pieces and swallowing it chased with water. Remove the skin from the other three cloves and cut/dices into small pieces. Press/mash the pieces to activate the allicin. i use a cheap plastic spatula. Wait 10 minutes for the allicin to finish activating. Take the garlic by spoon chased by water after each spoonful. I do not chew the garlic. It would seem that garlic would be hard to digest, but it is very easy to digest.
I have been eating a clove of garlic everyday to reduce inflammation, treat my skin allergy and lower my BP. Consequently, my HBP & skin allergy were controlled that the doctor’s RX for allergy could not. I was afraid I’d smell if I continue to consume garlic but I read somewhere to limit eating only a clove of a garlic a day so as not to smell if you eat more you will. How I eat garlic. If you are like me who hates garlic and never eat it at all, you may do this. I chop a clove of garlic very finely, put them in a teaspoon, then transfer to my tongue and drink water quickly. I swallow the garlic without tasting it and that’s how I survive eating garlic to this day. Hope this helps. Thank you Dr Berg for sharing your knowledge with us, I watch many of your videos and followed your advice. God bless you and your family.🙏
@@kime464 if you buy it in a pack, check the tag, it should tell you where it’s from. If you buy in bulk or loose, check the head if it has roots. If the head is clean and pretty w/o roots, chances are it is from China. Garlic from China are neatly packed and very clean, they remove the roots on the head. Hope this helps.
How do you properly eat garlic? Just put it whole clove in mouth chew then swallow (despite the burning sensation) or crush or cut into small pieces then swallow with water?
@@selwynnarayanasamy i used to get them too, but it stopped when my body got used to it? idk, everybody's body is different, try eating garlic on a full stomach... before eating the garlic, chop it up & leave in the air for 10 mins, it has a magical effect
In india 🇮🇳 it’s commonly used as a pickle , garlic with all other herbs like turmeric, fenugreek seeds etc. especially in mustard oil tastes so good too! Respect
You can chop / shred an unripe mango or green apple. Add Himalayan pink salt, chopped Cilantro and crushed garlic and lemon juice. Mix together for a side chutney to eat with foods, or by itself. To eat by itself, for a snack , chop in bite- size pieces.. you can sprinkle a little Tumeric/ black pepper. ACV optional...♥️♥️🇺🇸
If I'd send this video to a friend of mine who became a dr. in the US 30 years ago, I bet she'll never speak to me again....you are speaking the truth, Dr.Berg!
I put my garlic in jar fill with olive oil and it gets strong, I cook with the oil plus I cut the garlic or throw it in to my meal , I wilt my spinach, the put it in my 4 eggs, add the garlic and lightly cook. That’s usually my morning food. With 1 cup kefir
My neighbor died on the way to the emergency room, back in the1990s. He crossed over, met other deceased people, but came back. His arteries were all clogged. I told him to take garlic to clear his arteries. His doctor could not believe how fast his arteries cleared. He started lifting weights, got his GED, as he joined the navy as a teenage Dad, instead of finishing school. He got his GED before his kids finished high school. He had nine kids. He went on to community college, learned Vietnamese, taught others to be master plumbers, then became a Baptist preacher. Garlic is a life saver. He lived another decade or more, seeing his grandchildren. I have very good plumbing, as his gift. Many called him a drunk, stay away from him. I prayed for him everyday. I remember when he would be so drunk, he would ask me to go turn off his truck. He was too drunk to be able to turn off the truck. He got sober. Dr. Berg's videos saved my brother from alcoholism. He's been sober 3 years after being an alcoholic 58 years. My brother could have died, his liver was failing. Very appreciative for all the great advise, that saves lives.
@@nazuddin6346 I just saw this. I take garlic tablets. I tried swallowing garlic cloves, but choked....it's too dangerous. If you smoke....your body is oxygen deprived.... So you smoke more and more and more... If you drink coffee, you get more and more dehydrated.... So you drink more, and more coffee... If you drink alcohol, it dehydrates you, so you drink more and more and more... To quit smoking I had to keep the carotid arteries open... Interlocking my fingers around my knees, or feet, I would pull my shoulders down, to keep the carotid arteries open... To quit drinking, my brother, stopped all sugar, grains, fruits, and yeast breads. Together they ferment alcohol. He was dying of ascites, due to cirrhosis of the liver. Following Dr. Eric Berg's advice...he survived ascites, and has been sober over 3 years.

Garlic is SO easy to grow! Especially in northern climates. It takes up very little space in the garden. I grow a few different varieties. It can be stored almost a whole year in a cool area.
Me too, I grow as much as can. Warm climate, I enjoy all varieties. I've surprised myself few times, wasn't sure was it leek or garlic until I pulled n see bulb. You can't beat home grown veg, so simple to do.. just learn n put in effort n u be very content. Carrots or instance, look hilariously funny in shape sometimes ,Not like " perfect shop bought". * But if u can't grow own veg,WASH THROUGH IN BICARBONATE DE SODA N WATER,SOAK,RINSE N COOK!
I mix crushed garlic with apple cider vinegar (50 50 mix). I keep it in the fridge and rub it into age spots, under skin bleeds and bruises. I am 76 and It works every time. Every one should know this. After watching this video, I am also going to start taking it orally, a couple of table spoons at a time.
I would like to add a footnote to my post above. 1. The mixture is too strong to take with a spoon, it will make you feel sick (I tried it). However, 1 Tablespoon in a large glass of water, makes you feel really well, a d it stimulates your stomach acid. Also, it takes two or three days for bruises and under skin bleeding to start disappearing. That really works well. Because there is so much garlic in the mix, you can keep topping it up with more apple cider vinegar as you use it.
Been eating raw garlic everyday and religiously for 25 years. The health benefits is just awesome.. I love garlic but I make sure I’m not in a social situation because it does reek a smell. As a kid, my grandpa made this amazing vegetarian dish that required a lot of garlic. It made the house smell good and it just makes food taste amazing! Garlic forever!!!
Oh goodness, I wish you could share the vegetarian recipe. I'm going to try to start eating fresh raw garlic clove once a day. I bought Dr Christopher bottle of garlic but I want to try it fresh. Thank you for sharing.
I take 4 full lemons and 4 full bulbs of garlic and chop and grind them together , strain and add 2 cups of good water. Drink 3 oz a day 1-3 times a day. Apparently the two combined make it even more potent!! The lemon makes it easier to drink. Thanks Doc.
I bake my own keto flatbread every day and it has garlic in it. It also has turmeric, ginger, ground flaxseed and nutritional yeast - all of which have been recommended by Doctor Berg. I feel that my flatbread is extremely high in nutrition and antioxidants, plus it fills me up all day and allows me to consume only 2 meals per day, fasting for 19 hours.
@@timgregory82 Ok I found it on TH-cam and added my own slant on it. 2 tablespoons of coconut flour. 2 tablespoons of almond flour. Sprinkle of sea salt or pink. 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast. 2 tablespoons of ground flax seed. ⅓ teaspoon of baking powder. 2 tablespoons of psyllium husk powder. Everything below is optional. Sprinkle of garlic powder. Sprinkle of cayenne pepper. Sprinkle of ginger. Sprinkle of turmeric powder. Mix with melted butter and coconut oil. Add hot water til runny and stir as it thickens. 2 minutes it becomes a dough. Shape and fry in a pan or bake in the oven. I fry both sides until brown and consume with every evening meal. It can also be used as a pizza base. Maybe it would be easier if I posted a video of me making it.
@@toofun2991 I just break into cloves and peel and dehydrate. I then pack jar with cloves leaving enough room to put coil (Ball fermenting kit) and pour honey to fill jar about an 1 1/2" from top. Then place Ball fermenting lid included with kit on and place on a saucer on counter. Once honey turn into thin liquid I place in refrigerator
👋👋👋 Hi Dr. Berg. My husband and I purchased land in Puerto Rico. We planted elephant garlic and other non-China garlic there. I am seriously considering becoming a garlic farmer as I am aware the medicinal power of garlic. My grandma use to put a garlic clove in my ear when I had ear pain, it took the pain away! Thank you Dr. Berg for your continuous mission educating us, the public. You are a great teacher. Keep shining your light! God Bless you and Karen!👍❤. Puerto Ricans use garlic in most of our dishes because the base of our food is Sofrito, which includes garlic, onion, cilantro, peppers, and a small sweet pepper we call ajicitos dulce. They look like the Scotch Bonnet pepper, the only difference is that the ajicito dulce is not hot. Oh yeah, in Spanish whenever you see a word with the letter j, it's pronounced like the letter h in the English language.
@@senoviamartinez9560 Duro! I just finished a pastelon. For me recipe, I infused small piece(s) of ajo inside olive oil, pillow case, in/outside the doors, balcony sliding doors of my homes, eat piece when awake & of course in my pocket. ~Bachelor I Stand..."Muy fuerte!"
Excellent information. And you can grow it yourself (GIY). It's easy and you don't need a whole lot of room either. Just get some of those organic garlic bulbs, split them into their cloves and plant them just below soil level... now's the time! Go to it! Sharing this vid now, thanks Doc 👍
Wow makes sense , my grandmother has a recipe from her great grandmother that includes fermenting lots of garlic with olive oil , you add unions and honey , you squeeze it and jar the oils , you take it like cold medicine, I’m a believer it works !
My favourite breakfast for about 6 yrs now is 2 slices of toast with a lg clove of garlic rubbed/grated onto the bread till it disintegrates then I drizzle with olive oil then half a cup of finely chopped home grown parsley sprinkled on top,then some avocado sliced & mashed over the parsley,then I top it with sliced tomato(homegrown) & sprinkle my dried home grown oregano on the tomato then S & P . Absolutely delicious..just like a bruschetta. P.s..Chinese garlic is also sprayed so it doesn't sprout in storage.
I started making fire cider last year - garlic, ginger, turmeric, oranges, horseradish and habanero fermented in apple cider vinegar. That stuff is potent! I have a shot glass full when I'm feeling a little under the weather and it pretty much blasts anything germy away. I also mix it with olive oil to make a spicy, tangy salad dressing.
This is true, but the compound must be developed in the garlic first by crushing the cloves & then letting them sit, crushed, for at least 10 min. This produces an enzyme that produces the allicin. Only then should you chop, etc, & add to water or to recipes.
This is the only time I’ve been disappointed in you, Dr. Berg. Last year or so I shared this with you on this channel and the response was, “ Honey is pure sugar, garlic or not “. So this didn’t fit your Keto diet but yet today you share it as an “almost cure all “. I’ve been using this for several years, a recipe I learned from OAG before his recent passing. May OAG Rest In Peace. The recipe has kept me well and the raw, organic honey liquifies quickly after the garlic slices are incorporated and ferments for a week or so. It also makes for an excellent cough syrup as well. Another raw organic honey fermented syrup is fresh, thinly sliced organic ginger and fresh thinly sliced, organic pineapple in combination. Excellent for it’s digestive qualities and well as an anti- nausea remedy. Either of these should be consumed in small quantity but their health benefits are evident during cold and flu season. Although the honey is a preservative and natural wound healer, after I’ve fermented them, they go into the fridge to slow the fermentation process. 🥰
Thank You Heavenly Father, Creator of the Universe, for creating and giving us all these wonderful foods for our health and wellbeing. “And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food. “” Genesis 1:29 Lots of love and Shalom from the UNITED Kingdom
I have been eating two cloves of garlic every day for the last three years. I have only been sick once, and it was very mild. My wife has been sick multiple times in the past year. It's easy, just cut a clove into small pieces. Take a bite of your breakfast and pop a piece in chew. Next bite new piece. Takes a little getting used too, but totally worth it. I don't smell like garlic just brush and rinse after breakfast.
@@jbz3189 Try cutting it into smaller pieces. That burn you feel takes getting used to. I have found that eating cottage cheese helps a lot with that sensation. Take a spoon full start chewing then pop your small piece of garlic in, and chew it together. Hope this helps. 🙂
I have crushed a clove of garlic and let it sit in a cup of hot water for about 20 minutes to make hot garlic water. I saw it in a video on TH-cam a while back.
I always have blended garlic and ginger in my fridge for all my cooking. I also eat a quarter of teaspoon raw garlic blend whenever I feel my throat is a bit dodgy as a first defence. It heals almost instantly always.
I don't have garlic cloves but I will get some soon. I just tried minced garlic tsp in glass of water because of gurdwara, and irritated vocals/throat and I literally could talk clearer. I'm having my vocals looked at because I've had to much Gerd and I sing so I'm scared my cords are damaged. I don't smoke, drink.... so I avoid irritants. THANK YOU DR. BERG my stomach and Gerd feels much better...
I crushed the garlic and ferment it with honey. Life saver! … ultimately, when I was in full keto i didn’t get sick for 2 years. I went back doing keto days ago but it’s a struggle coz i’m just recovering from a very long seasonal allergies. The Organic Cruciferous support from Dr. Eric Berg keeps me up and lively.
I remember my mother used to keep garlic around my younger siblings necks just like a necklace during winters.😊 Today after years I knew why she was doing that. Although my mother was an illiterate uneducated village house wife. Another reality is that locally grown garlic seems very small in size and difficult to peel off .but Chinese garlic is so big and easy to peel.
I don't even cook it anymore, just chopped it and sprinkle it on my food, this works wonders on your body, 10Q for all your healthy advice, really appreciate it.
I ferment mine in honey!…tremendous double action of both health promoting foods…will keep as honey doesnt go bad…i make ahead and usually use fermented honey garlic from last year…use as daily tonic…or use on veggies or in salad dressings…yum…
I like to ferment my garlic in honey every year. I just cover the garlic with honey and crack the lid every day for the first few months. Garlic fermented in honey is also easy to eat raw by itself. Much easier to eat then raw unfermented garlic. When I'm done with the garlic, I use the honey in my tea. Have NOT been sick in YEARS and now I'm in my mid 50s. An apple a day keeps the doctor away. An apple, and a clove of garlic, keeps him WAY away!
You can get a PH meter to test and make sure it’s safe if you want peace of mind. Mine has been in the cupboard for at least 6 months. I test every few weeks and it’s fine
Just planted 150 bulbs in my garden yesterday we use the honey garlic on salads with lemon AMAZING and in other kitchen creations as always doc thanking you for your research and time creating this content stay blessed
Here in London I found a middle Eastern grocery shop that sells pickled garlic cloves made in Greece and I found these do not give you garlic breath or body smell at all but all the benefits. It's a sweet garlic, totally unlike others and I eat them by the handful.
@@gsdbellaoneone9325 It's a different type of garlic. The cloves are half the size of typical garlic. So I think that's the difference, just like different grapes make different wines and there are different apples etc etc. They're so incredibly tasty though. They don't burn your mouth and make your eyes tear up like when you bite into regular raw garlic.
I grow my own garlic, all organic. This fall, I planted about 150 cloves. I'll have plenty of garlic next year. My question is, do garlic chives provide similar benefits? I grow them, too.
@@saranwright7113 Buy organic garlic. Break it up into cloves. Plant it in either autumn or spring - or both. About two to three inches deep. If it produces a flower bud stalk (called a scape), cut it off. This bit is edible too!
~I planted garic last fall, watered it till summer, then just when it was ready to be harvested, pocket gofers(i think?) destroyed every bit of it?!!~Im gonna try it in plastic planters this year?!~
Thank you for the information Dr. Berg I’ve been doing this for a couple years now the honey and garlic is definitely good when you take it on the empty stomach you can feel the difference as the morning star to progress
garlic in honey is my only winter drug and it works. But I eat the honey too, which is also anti-bacterial and anti-viral. I can always go back to ketosis later. A word to the wise: this is one of the longest ferments to mature, 3 months or more. Only olives take more for me (one year). Start it in late July with the new crop to have it ready in late Fall.
Is it literally just garlic cloves in honey in a jar for three months, or is there anything else to it? Sounds like it might be too late to make this for this year… maybe we can purchase it somewhere. If anyone knows somewhere this can be purchased, please post! Thanks!! ♥️
Thanks for this valuable piece of knowledge. Here in India also we put garlic in each dish, i believe it helps a lot to fight viral or bacterial problems. Garlic heated with mustard oil is like miracle for injury and its smell which everyone may not like, helps in cough cold. Same goes for Ginger ,Turmeric etc. makes lot of contribution for good immune system.
I love my garlic 🇮🇹, I grow it yearly in the garden❤. My grandmother told me as a child, she would carry garlic, and eat them with raw fava beans, she was in great health🇮🇹 lived in her late 90s❤ 6:31
As an Indian, I feel proud of our ancient food habits. We use gralic onion ginger turmeric and other beneficial ingredients almost in ever dish and eating since my childhood.
Don't feel too proud yet. There are many things in the Indian diet that are not healthy or relevant today. While the spice base is very advanced, the use of white rice, roti, naan, kulcha, luchi, paratha, suji and sweets are leading to metabolic disease. The spices have no effect against the high insulin levels caused by these refined carbs and sucrose. No Indian will ever give up his Basmati rice, fluffy wheat rotis, soft naan breads, or payasam and rossogollas. Eat all the turmeric you want but unless these foods are removed from diet, inflammation and insulin levels will rise and bring disease.
@@shehrbano8483 many many Hindu ladies are arthritic and walk very poor by the time they are 40y/o. Maybe the legume phytic acid or the omega3/6 ratios of the veggie and milk only diets. .
Not so fast. I am also from the region and can second the differing opinion as mentioned by other commentators. A diet high in flour, rice, sugar and vegetable oil etc is as far as healthy as one can be. Diabetes , arthritis, inflammation is extremely high in India mostly because of poor diet choice passed down generations as "culture".
@@c.anderson3444 I am a muslim, not a vegan either... but I was talking about seasonal sicknesses....and not about these low nutrient or wrong choice food imposed diseases.

Garlic is in everything I cook. Lots of Garlic. And Onion. I can't remember the last time I had a cold or flu.Years and years. Generally extremely healthy.
I’m crazy over fermented garlic! I started adding it to my cabbage for sauerkraut, and can’t get enough. It tastes like those little pickled onions that are put in martinis.
Wow, when I heard organophosphates, I almost fainted. About ten years ago I was severely exposed to organophosphate due to a pesticide I put on my lawn called spectracide . It thought I was being safe because I had all protective gear on, but I was using a fertilizer spreader to apply which made it more aerosol. I had on mask but wasn’t thick enough. I came down with a very bad neuropathy . It was like a combination of shingles and stroke on right side. It took me a year to recover , doctors thought I was faking the pain. It required lots of medication and took years off my life I am sure. I have always been a garlic eater. I did the research which officially determined the cause of my problem. When I tell people the story they are amazed that doctors had no idea what was wrong with me. I had even told them I was exposed to a chemical ! Anyway. Thanks for all your helpful advice. I preach to everyone about staying away from chemicals! Now I can preach about some things you have taught me as well and I have sent many of your videos to people! Thank you so much!
We have raw garlic soaked in cooking vinegar in an glass bottle all year round, and the vinegar became so delicious, so are the garlic cloves. You can also add a little sugar in bottle for greater taste. Use it during winter to prevent cold, or if you already catch cold Just smell the vinegar, also drink it or mix some with food, eat the garlic too of course. You won't regret. With vinegar I mean the Chinese traditional ones in dark colour
Mmmmmm garlic. Can never have too much Garlic. Accept maybe deserts, but i am willing to think about it, like that garlic fermented in honey looked pretty tasty.
It's been in use more than 4000 years ,it was found in ancient Egyptian tombs ,iv hv been using it for 10 yrs I mix 50/50 mix and place in dark cool place for 14 days it naturally ferments , but I do crush all my garlic first makes it much more powerful 😀
Add a tablespoon or two of cayenne pepper to the jar of garlic and honey for strep. Dose 1 tablespoon spoon with a garlic clove 3-4x per day for 2 days. If you let the mixture rest in dark place for a week or more it’s much better tasting. Just my opinion. Also, take on full stomach or in a small glass of water. Chopped garlic is easier to just swallow.
For over 50 years I preserve my garlic in vinegar. It will last for months, but I eat it up quickly. I buy a 3 pound bag of peeled local garlic and can it up. Great to chop into eggs, salads etc and you get the vinegar too.
No one on the Italian side of my family has EVER died from a disease, as far back as I can think. Never had heart or vascular problems either. We eat garlic like it's on the food pyramid.
@@Scorpio62626 in Europe food standards are way better than here just look how the eggs are sold in USA here are the terms: 1.Cage free eggs= hen has 12 inch square place 2. Free range eggs means hens can see yes just peak outside 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Also to release the allicin in garlic, you should smashed or grate the garlic, wait 10 minutes, and then consume. Allicin is what gives garlic its spicy flavor.
Thank you so much for spending time doing research and gave us these helpful videos for our health benefits and healthy living. Keep it coming Dr. Berg!!
You must chop or mince the fresh garlic, mix and leave for 10 minutes. The enzyme and protein now pushed together form alicin. Before mincing they were separated. You can then cook at whatever temperature because the alicin is unaffected but the original enzyme ( not the protein )would have been destroyed by that same heat.
I just want to thank you for so much, Dr Berg!… I don’t see every video, but believe me, I find them so instructing and so good for us… just meds is not the point… if we can avoid most chemicals, we’re better off … I started taking meds 9 years ago… couldn’t find a dr like the one I had all my life that took care of me with food and vitamins… I am VERY glad I found out about you!
I think it's so awesome of you to take the time to explain how hard it really is for doctors to retain the amount of info they're taught in med school. I have a better understanding that they really don't know everything. Thanks Dr Berg🤗
Even though I have a low opinion of most doctors I do feel not everything is their fault. Life would be much easier if doctors would be honest with their patients and let us know that they DON'T know....
@Term limits Com “Education” is what survives after legislators have decided that they know best. Our K-12 education system is designed, and not by teachers, to mimic the model the Dr. described here. This is mostly because the US is unwilling to fund education.
@@iwanaknowe2380 CORRECTION : It's NOT the entire US that won't fund education. It is, and has been for decades, that the Republican Party has refused to fund education, in the belief that education produces liberal thinking. Well, it DOES -- because advanced education makes us better thinkers and doers, and thus, more liberal in our thoughts, goals, and ideals.
Dr. Berg, I have followed your videos for a long time and feel that I have benefited from them tremendously. I have incorporated low-carb eating and more cruciferous vegetables into my lifestyle. This has been an attempt to lower blood pressure and keep glucose levels in check. I recently came across Sally K. Norton who talks about the detrimental effects of oxalates in Many vegetables, not just Spinach. Are you familiar with this information and could you do a video about whether this is as much of a problem as some say it is? Thank you for everything that you do.
I love garlic so much I came out of a store with a potato ricer my friend thought it was a garlic press I had bought😂..she was serious 🤣She hates garlic but said hey it tastes great and is nature's antibiotic .
Garlic fermented in olive oil is our way to survive the winter here in Palestine, and the best part is the organic olive oil which is from our lands.
Do you refrigerate it? In America they're constantly warning people not to do this because of Botulism. Do you every hear of any problems with this? I store my tomatoes, basil and garlic all together in olive oil in the fridge. They basically are trying to scare anyone from food preserving when they can.
But the worst part is you live in Palestine
Is it really bad in Palestine?
How long do you ferment the garlic for in the organic olive oil?

Dr Berg I'm 63 years old, I eat head of raw garlic every weekend. Even though my wife and my daughters complained about the garlic smell. Moreover I never stopped eating because of their complained, the good thing I'm very healthy and never been in the hospital in my entire life. I'm eating garlic since I was 17 years old.
Wow
Considering Dr. Berg here shares how that just the smell of garlic kills off bacteria (and probably viruses too), then when your family complains about the smell, point this out, and then tell them that the smell of garlic within your breath is potentially doing that too, so after that explanation, then say "you're welcome".
a while head?
…or a single clove?
I’m very curious. Also do you use it in food or beverage or cooked?

I drink 16oz of water daily with the following added. Lemon, garlic, ginger, apple cider vinegar, turmeric, pepper and Himalayan salt. Been doing this for many years. Simply, easy, and effective!
Fresh garlic and ginger
Basically minus the garlic (which I do eat in honey) you make my version of Gatorade.
Could you tell me how much to add in a glass? Thanks
@@gregbishop77 Half a lemon, two garlic cloves, (do garlic every other day cause the scent can seep through your skin) apple cider vinegar (start with a tablespoon and work up to two tablespoons) with the Himalayan salt, pepper and turmeric, suite to taste. You will have to experiment with it because the taste can be strong.
There is no formula. The key is to make sure you develop a habit of doing it daily. It’s a staple I have been doing for many years. It will help prevent you from catching colds. If you do get it, it will leave much faster if you are constantly drinking it each morning. ✝️

@@xfactor3000, there are two ways. 1) Put whole cloves in small bottle. Pour in enough honey to cover the chives. 2) Cut cloves into small pieces and put in small jar. Pour in enough honey to cover the chives. The following applies to both methods: Put lid on bottle and shake. Shake once every day to ensure garlic is covered with honey. Every day, loosen the cap to let it 'burp', then tighten again. In 20 days, the garlic is ready to be consumed.

My family is Russian. My grandmother used to simmer garlic in whole, full fat milk when we were young. Yes, full fat milk is important because the fats pull out a lot of the active constituents of the garlic. Not the best tasking brew, but it really worked, I tell you. We never went to the doctor as kids because my grandmother took care of everything at home. We were also very rarely sick because she'd nip things in the bud. The longest I ever had a sore throat living with her was less than 24 hours. Goldenseal is also an amazing natural antibiotic.

I had a checkup and my doctor sent me to a specialist because my triglycerides were high for my age, and they wanted to check if I had a genetic component prone to angina and high blood pressure. I was told I probably had to start taking medicines. For the 2 weeks from my first specialist checkup until i met the specialist a second time, I ate 3 cloves of garlic every day, because i had heard of the benefits. When I returned, just 2 weeks later, my triglycerides and blood pressure had normalized and the specialist happily said that whatever im doing, i should just keep doing, because there was no need for medication. Go garlic!

Raw garlic is an essential part of my daily diet. I consume four cloves a day when I get home from work and wait an hour before eating a modest meal. Cloves are various sizes so I attempt to eat in total the equivalent of four cloves the size of the first joint of my thumb. Following Dr. Berg's advice on garlic and other topics, my lab work has continued to steadily improve as has weight loss (50 pounds). I enjoy the white board sessions that break down how what we eat affects our bodies.
How do you prefer to eat garlic, if I may ask? Do you crush it and serve with food, or do you literally pop a clove into your mouth and chew it?
@@leoray1234
@@leoray1234 I consume one clove by removing the skin, cutting it into smaller pieces and swallowing it chased with water. Remove the skin from the other three cloves and cut/dices into small pieces.

I have been eating a clove of garlic everyday to reduce inflammation, treat my skin allergy and lower my BP. Consequently, my HBP & skin allergy were controlled that the doctor’s RX for allergy could not. I was afraid I’d smell if I continue to consume garlic but I read somewhere to limit eating only a clove of a garlic a day so as not to smell if you eat more you will.
How I eat garlic. If you are like me who hates garlic and never eat it at all, you may do this.
I chop a clove of garlic very finely, put them in a teaspoon, then transfer to my tongue and drink water quickly. I swallow the garlic without tasting it and that’s how I survive eating garlic to this day. Hope this helps.

My neighbor died on the way to the emergency room, back in the1990s. He crossed over, met other deceased people, but came back. His arteries were all clogged. I told him to take garlic to clear his arteries. His doctor could not believe how fast his arteries cleared. He started lifting weights, got his GED, as he joined the navy as a teenage Dad, instead of finishing school. He got his GED before his kids finished high school. He had nine kids. He went on to community college, learned Vietnamese, taught others to be master plumbers, then became a Baptist preacher. Garlic is a life saver. He lived another decade or more, seeing his grandchildren.
I have very good plumbing, as his gift. Many called him a drunk, stay away from him. I prayed for him everyday. I remember when he would be so drunk, he would ask me to go turn off his truck. He was too drunk to be able to turn off the truck. He got sober. Dr. Berg's videos saved my brother from alcoholism. He's been sober 3 years after being an alcoholic 58 years. My brother could have died, his liver was failing. Very appreciative for all the great advise, that saves lives.

Garlic is SO easy to grow! Especially in northern climates. It takes up very little space in the garden. I grow a few different varieties. It can be stored almost a whole year in a cool area.
I grow my own garlic every year…
Neat!
Different varieties??? Do tell plz???
Me too, I grow as much as can. Warm climate, I enjoy all varieties. I've surprised myself few times, wasn't sure was it leek or garlic until I pulled n see bulb. You can't beat home grown veg, so simple to do.. just learn n put in effort n u be very content. Carrots or instance, look hilariously funny in shape sometimes ,Not like " perfect shop bought".

I mix crushed garlic with apple cider vinegar (50 50 mix). I keep it in the fridge and rub it into age spots, under skin bleeds and bruises. I am 76 and It works every time. Every one should know this. After watching this video, I am also going to start taking it orally, a couple of table spoons at a time.
I would like to add a footnote to my post above. 1. The mixture is too strong to take with a spoon, it will make you feel sick (I tried it). However, 1 Tablespoon in a large glass of water, makes you feel really well, a d it stimulates your stomach acid. Also, it takes two or three days for bruises and under skin bleeding to start disappearing. That really works well. Because there is so much garlic in the mix, you can keep topping it up with more apple cider vinegar as you use it.

👋👋👋 Hi Dr. Berg. My husband and I purchased land in Puerto Rico. We planted elephant garlic and other non-China garlic there. I am seriously considering becoming a garlic farmer as I am aware the medicinal power of garlic. My grandma use to put a garlic clove in my ear when I had ear pain, it took the pain away! Thank you Dr. Berg for your continuous mission educating us, the public. You are a great teacher. Keep shining your light! God Bless you and Karen!👍❤. Puerto Ricans use garlic in most of our dishes because the base of our food is Sofrito, which includes garlic, onion, cilantro, peppers, and a small sweet pepper we call ajicitos dulce. They look like the Scotch Bonnet pepper, the only difference is that the ajicito dulce is not hot. Oh yeah, in Spanish whenever you see a word with the letter j, it's pronounced like the letter h in the English language.
We have used garlic also for ear pain. And it worked. 😀
I use Sofrito in most everything.
Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 food is the BEST!!👍

My favourite breakfast for about 6 yrs now is 2 slices of toast with a lg clove of garlic rubbed/grated onto the bread till it disintegrates then I drizzle with olive oil then half a cup of finely chopped home grown parsley sprinkled on top,then some avocado sliced & mashed over the parsley,then I top it with sliced tomato(homegrown) & sprinkle my dried home grown oregano on the tomato then S & P . Absolutely delicious..just like a bruschetta.
P.s..Chinese garlic is also sprayed so it doesn't sprout in storage.
I started making fire cider last year - garlic, ginger, turmeric, oranges, horseradish and habanero fermented in apple cider vinegar. That stuff is potent! I have a shot glass full when I'm feeling a little under the weather and it pretty much blasts anything germy away. I also mix it with olive oil to make a spicy, tangy salad dressing.

Raw garlic contains a component called Allicin, which helps in thinning the blood and reduces the cholesterol levels.👍

@@MichaelTheophilus906 why not use the garlic and pass on the blood thinner ?
This is true, but the compound must be developed in the garlic first by crushing the cloves & then letting them sit, crushed, for at least 10 min. This produces an enzyme that produces the allicin. Only then should you chop, etc, & add to water or to recipes.
@@MichaelTheophilus906 I hope your wearing your masks!
This is the only time I’ve been disappointed in you, Dr. Berg. Last year or so I shared this with you on this channel and the response was, “ Honey is pure sugar, garlic or not “. So this didn’t fit your Keto diet but yet today you share it as an “almost cure all “. I’ve been using this for several years, a recipe I learned from OAG before his recent passing. May OAG Rest In Peace. The recipe has kept me well and the raw, organic honey liquifies quickly after the garlic slices are incorporated and ferments for a week or so. It also makes for an excellent cough syrup as well. Another raw organic honey fermented syrup is fresh, thinly sliced organic ginger and fresh thinly sliced, organic pineapple in combination. Excellent for it’s digestive qualities and well as an anti- nausea remedy. Either of these should be consumed in small quantity but their health benefits are evident during cold and flu season. Although the honey is a preservative and natural wound healer, after I’ve fermented them, they go into the fridge to slow the fermentation process. 🥰
I am sorry to hear of OAG passing I remember watching his video with garlic and honey. Rest in peace.

It's easy, just cut a clove into small pieces. Take a bite of your breakfast and pop a piece in chew. Next bite new piece. Takes a little getting used too, but totally worth it. I don't smell like garlic just brush and rinse after breakfast.
hello. do you mix it with other foods before you chew it? i tried eating raw garlic but i had a burning sensation in my mouth...
@@jbz3189 Try cutting it into smaller pieces. That burn you feel takes getting used to. I have found that eating cottage cheese helps a lot with that sensation. Take a spoon full start chewing then pop your small piece of garlic in, and chew it together. Hope this helps. 🙂
Doc good job this is one of the best videos on garlic . I havent had a cold or flue in years hallelujah thank you jesus this is a God given gift
I have crushed a clove of garlic and let it sit in a cup of hot water for about 20 minutes to make hot garlic water. I saw it in a video on TH-cam a while back.
Nice work, you killed 99 percent of the benefits
@@bobbybbobu6967 What is the best way?
@@jayrowe6473 just mince it and consume it. Don't apply high temperature
I always have blended garlic and ginger in my fridge for all my cooking.
I also eat a quarter of teaspoon raw garlic blend whenever I feel my throat is a bit dodgy as a first defence. It heals almost instantly always.
I don't have garlic cloves but I will get some soon. I just tried minced garlic tsp in glass of water because of gurdwara, and irritated vocals/throat and I literally could talk clearer. I'm having my vocals looked at because I've had to much Gerd and I sing so I'm scared my cords are damaged. I don't smoke, drink.... so I avoid irritants. THANK YOU DR. BERG my stomach and Gerd feels much better...
I crushed the garlic and ferment it with honey. Life saver! … ultimately, when I was in full keto i didn’t get sick for 2 years. I went back doing keto days ago but it’s a struggle coz i’m just recovering from a very long seasonal allergies. The Organic Cruciferous support from Dr. Eric Berg keeps me up and lively.
I fermentation mine, the same way
im doing mine the same way, can botulism survive in it?
I remember my mother used to keep garlic around my younger siblings necks just like a necklace during winters.😊 Today after years I knew why she was doing that. Although my mother was an illiterate uneducated village house wife. Another reality is that locally grown garlic seems very small in size and difficult to peel off .but Chinese garlic is so big and easy to peel.
I do this with honey & let it sit for while. When done I eat a tablespoon each day. Thank you
I don't even cook it anymore, just chopped it and sprinkle it on my food, this works wonders on your body, 10Q for all your healthy advice, really appreciate it.
It's great chopped and added to scrambled eggs!!
agreed...i stopped heating/cooking food 4 yrs ago...raw organic eggyolks taste the same as cooked yolks
you should crush it for maximum benefits
We in India make condiments with roasted garlic ,tomatoes, green chillies and fresh coriander
I ferment mine in honey!…tremendous double action of both health promoting foods…will keep as honey doesnt go bad…i make ahead and usually use fermented honey garlic from last year…use as daily tonic…or use on veggies or in salad dressings…yum…
Dr. BERG. you are daily health revelation blessing!
THANK YOU!
I like to ferment my garlic in honey every year. I just cover the garlic with honey and crack the lid every day for the first few months. Garlic fermented in honey is also easy to eat raw by itself. Much easier to eat then raw unfermented garlic. When I'm done with the garlic, I use the honey in my tea. Have NOT been sick in YEARS and now I'm in my mid 50s. An apple a day keeps the doctor away. An apple, and a clove of garlic, keeps him WAY away!
how long you ferment yours?
User 'GardeningMagic' say 20 days
I'm reading online 3-5 days when garlic is crushed.
Is it the burping that prevents botulism?
You can get a PH meter to test and make sure it’s safe if you want peace of mind. Mine has been in the cupboard for at least 6 months. I test every few weeks and it’s fine
Just planted 150 bulbs in my garden yesterday we use the honey garlic on salads with lemon AMAZING and in other kitchen creations as always doc thanking you for your research and time creating this content stay blessed
Here in London I found a middle Eastern grocery shop that sells pickled garlic cloves made in Greece and I found these do not give you garlic breath or body smell at all but all the benefits. It's a sweet garlic, totally unlike others and I eat them by the handful.
i wonder how it is made. Do you know?
@@gsdbellaoneone9325 It's a different type of garlic. The cloves are half the size of typical garlic. So I think that's the difference, just like different grapes make different wines and there are different apples etc etc. They're so incredibly tasty though. They don't burn your mouth and make your eyes tear up like when you bite into regular raw garlic.
I grow my own garlic, all organic. This fall, I planted about 150 cloves. I'll have plenty of garlic next year. My question is, do garlic chives provide similar benefits? I grow them, too.
I managed to plant 650cloves this fall.. so excited to see how they do! Lotsa bunny poo fertilizer so they should be great!! ..
How do u grow garlic ?
@@saranwright7113
Buy organic garlic. Break it up into cloves. Plant it in either autumn or spring - or both. About two to three inches deep.
If it produces a flower bud stalk (called a scape), cut it off. This bit is edible too!
~I planted garic last fall, watered it till summer, then just when it was ready to be harvested, pocket gofers(i think?) destroyed every bit of it?!!~Im gonna try it in plastic planters this year?!~
I eat 15-20 crushed garlic Mixed with butter and ghee in Chicken breast and it makes it taste so good.
Thank you for the information Dr. Berg I’ve been doing this for a couple years now the honey and garlic is definitely good when you take it on the empty stomach you can feel the difference as the morning star to progress
I've been eating garlic with just about everything I eat anymore. Love taste and I've been cooking more can't get enough of it.
We was thinking to make it today thank you
garlic in honey is my only winter drug and it works. But I eat the honey too, which is also anti-bacterial and anti-viral. I can always go back to ketosis later. A word to the wise: this is one of the longest ferments to mature, 3 months or more. Only olives take more for me (one year). Start it in late July with the new crop to have it ready in late Fall.
Please share the recipe.
Would appreciate the recipe. 😊🇨🇦
Would you please share the process how to make it, thank you so much, god bless!!
Garlic in honey?🧐Could you, please, share how it should be done?? Many followers of Dr Berg’s channel really appreciate your time and generosity🙏
Is it literally just garlic cloves in honey in a jar for three months, or is there anything else to it? Sounds like it might be too late to make this for this year… maybe we can purchase it somewhere. If anyone knows somewhere this can be purchased, please post! Thanks!! ♥️
Thanks for this valuable piece of knowledge. Here in India also we put garlic in each dish, i believe it helps a lot to fight viral or bacterial problems. Garlic heated with mustard oil is like miracle for injury and its smell which everyone may not like, helps in cough cold. Same goes for Ginger ,Turmeric etc. makes lot of contribution for good immune system.
I have heard that Mustard oil is considered dangerous.
I love my garlic 🇮🇹, I grow it yearly in the garden❤. My grandmother told me as a child, she would carry garlic, and eat them with raw fava beans, she was in great health🇮🇹 lived in her late 90s❤ 6:31
Wow, amazing. Keep it up. Wishing you good health.
As an Indian, I feel proud of our ancient food habits. We use gralic onion ginger turmeric and other beneficial ingredients almost in ever dish and eating since my childhood.
Don't feel too proud yet. There are many things in the Indian diet that are not healthy or relevant today. While the spice base is very advanced, the use of white rice, roti, naan, kulcha, luchi, paratha, suji and sweets are leading to metabolic disease. The spices have no effect against the high insulin levels caused by these refined carbs and sucrose. No Indian will ever give up his Basmati rice, fluffy wheat rotis, soft naan breads, or payasam and rossogollas. Eat all the turmeric you want but unless these foods are removed from diet, inflammation and insulin levels will rise and bring disease.
Thats what I wonder about. we eat everything which is healthy and immune defendant yet we still fell sick every now and then... a Pakistani here.
@@shehrbano8483 many many Hindu ladies are arthritic and walk very poor by the time they are 40y/o. Maybe the legume phytic acid or the omega3/6 ratios of the veggie and milk only diets.
.
Not so fast. I am also from the region and can second the differing opinion as mentioned by other commentators. A diet high in flour, rice, sugar and vegetable oil etc is as far as healthy as one can be. Diabetes , arthritis, inflammation is extremely high in India mostly because of poor diet choice passed down generations as "culture".
@@c.anderson3444 I am a muslim, not a vegan either... but I was talking about seasonal sicknesses....and not about these low nutrient or wrong choice food imposed diseases. Women always care for family and children in here forgetting about themselves... thats why they contract these diseases mostly.
Garlic is in everything I cook. Lots of Garlic. And Onion. I can't remember the last time I had a cold or flu.Years and years. Generally extremely healthy.

I’m crazy over fermented garlic! I started adding it to my cabbage for sauerkraut, and can’t get enough. It tastes like those little pickled onions that are put in martinis.
Wow, when I heard organophosphates, I almost fainted. About ten years ago I was severely exposed to organophosphate due to a pesticide I put on my lawn called spectracide . It thought I was being safe because I had all protective gear on, but I was using a fertilizer spreader to apply which made it more aerosol. I had on mask but wasn’t thick enough. I came down with a very bad neuropathy . It was like a combination of shingles and stroke on right side. It took me a year to recover , doctors thought I was faking the pain. It required lots of medication and took years off my life I am sure. I have always been a garlic eater. I did the research which officially determined the cause of my problem. When I tell people the story they are amazed that doctors had no idea what was wrong with me. I had even told them I was exposed to a chemical ! Anyway. Thanks for all your helpful advice. I preach to everyone about staying away from chemicals! Now I can preach about some things you have taught me as well and I have sent many of your videos to people! Thank you so much!
I'm glad to read that you've recovered. What an ordeal! Chemicals can be so dangerous and they can affect different people so much more severely.
Garlic😍, Best gut friend 😉 ... Use it with yogurt and cucumber with a hint of olive oil and sea salt yummy ☺️
I’m growing my own and have the garlic in honey too.
We have raw garlic soaked in cooking vinegar in an glass bottle all year round, and the vinegar became so delicious, so are the garlic cloves. You can also add a little sugar in bottle for greater taste. Use it during winter to prevent cold, or if you already catch cold Just smell the vinegar, also drink it or mix some with food, eat the garlic too of course. You won't regret. With vinegar I mean the Chinese traditional ones in dark colour
Mmmmmm garlic. Can never have too much Garlic. Accept maybe deserts, but i am willing to think about it, like that garlic fermented in honey looked pretty tasty.
There’s a guy I work with that eats Garlic everyday. He’s very healthy, but smells like Garlic 🧄 🤣
Lol
Pathogens are afraid to get close to him.
A real man doesn't care if he smells nice!
That is the problem
@@jayrowe6473 And the Vampires 🧛♂️ lol
It's been in use more than 4000 years ,it was found in ancient Egyptian tombs ,iv hv been using it for 10 yrs I mix 50/50 mix and place in dark cool place for 14 days it naturally ferments , but I do crush all my garlic first makes it much more powerful 😀
Add a tablespoon or two of cayenne pepper to the jar of garlic and honey for strep. Dose 1 tablespoon spoon with a garlic clove 3-4x per day for 2 days. If you let the mixture rest in dark place for a week or more it’s much better tasting. Just my opinion. Also, take on full stomach or in a small glass of water. Chopped garlic is easier to just swallow.
For over 50 years I preserve my garlic in vinegar. It will last for months, but I eat it up quickly. I buy a 3 pound bag of peeled local garlic and can it up. Great to chop into eggs, salads etc and you get the vinegar too.
I've always smashed and swallowed (in water) garlic when ill. It really does help.
No one on the Italian side of my family has EVER died from a disease, as far back as I can think. Never had heart or vascular problems either. We eat garlic like it's on the food pyramid.
Dr Eric,you know 💯%more about food than doctors in general.
Thanks for educating us,from the Netherlands 💪
@TrueFact Agree,i am a herbalist myself,and still learing every day.
Dr Eric is a very good teacher.
Medicine Doctors in America have ZERO knowledge about food but still the richest in the world
@@khurrammalik5865 same in Europe
@@Scorpio62626 in Europe food standards are way better than here just look how the eggs are sold in USA here are the terms: 1.Cage free eggs= hen has 12 inch square place
2. Free range eggs means hens can see yes just peak outside

Also to release the allicin in garlic, you should smashed or grate the garlic, wait 10 minutes, and then consume. Allicin is what gives garlic its spicy flavor.
Dr. You are a blessing to the world
Thank you so much for spending time doing research and gave us these helpful videos for our health benefits and healthy living. Keep it coming Dr. Berg!!
🎯
You must chop or mince the fresh garlic, mix and leave for 10 minutes.
The enzyme and protein now pushed together form alicin.
Before mincing they were separated.
You can then cook at whatever temperature because the alicin is unaffected but the original
enzyme ( not the protein )would have been destroyed by that same heat.
That's always been my understanding, that the act of cutting the garlic releases the allicin.
As a child my mom had me eat raw garlic when I didn't feel well. I didn't take any antibiotics until I had my wisdom teeth removed at about 19.
I do a fermentation of raw honey and garlic, started consuming 2 tbsp a day, it helps me stay healthy and keeps colds away
Hi. What is your recipe?
I’m interested in how you make this!
@ Tiny Kitchen Big Flavor
Can you explain how your recipe and when to consume? I'd like to make this apart of my daily routine.
How to store garlic and ginger for freshness?
I just want to thank you for so much, Dr Berg!… I don’t see every video, but believe me, I find them so instructing and so good for us… just meds is not the point… if we can avoid most chemicals, we’re better off … I started taking meds 9 years ago… couldn’t find a dr like the one I had all my life that took care of me with food and vitamins… I am VERY glad I found out about you!
I think it's so awesome of you to take the time to explain how hard it really is for doctors to retain the amount of info they're taught in med school. I have a better understanding that they really don't know everything. Thanks Dr Berg🤗
@@MichaelTheophilus906 you know it’s not
Even though I have a low opinion of most doctors I do feel not everything is their fault. Life would be much easier if doctors would be honest with their patients and let us know that they DON'T know....
@Term limits Com “Education” is what survives after legislators have decided that they know best. Our K-12 education system is designed, and not by teachers, to mimic the model the Dr. described here. This is mostly because the US is unwilling to fund education.
@@iwanaknowe2380 CORRECTION :
It's NOT the entire US that won't fund education.
It is, and has been for decades, that the Republican Party has refused to fund education, in the belief that education produces liberal thinking.
Well, it DOES -- because advanced education makes us better thinkers and doers, and thus, more liberal in our thoughts, goals, and ideals.
and I have a better understanding of why Doctors and lawyers will be androids sooner then we think.
I made and eat fermented honey and garlic daily, a clove every day. I don't mind the garlic, even really like it. I made jars for my kids too.
Dr. Berg, I have followed your videos for a long time and feel that I have benefited from them tremendously. I have incorporated low-carb eating and more cruciferous vegetables into my lifestyle. This has been an attempt to lower blood pressure and keep glucose levels in check. I recently came across Sally K. Norton who talks about the detrimental effects of oxalates in Many vegetables, not just Spinach. Are you familiar with this information and could you do a video about whether this is as much of a problem as some say it is? Thank you for everything that you do.
If you cook your spinach. Destroys oxalates.
I meant steam it, is better.
I love garlic so much I came out of a store with a potato ricer my friend thought it was a garlic press I had bought😂..she was serious 🤣She hates garlic but said hey it tastes great and is nature's antibiotic .
