Looking at this chart, I should be the healthiest person around. What is the old saying --an apple a day, keeps the doctor away? According to this chart, it should be-- eating a clove a day, will keep all germs away. (Maybe people, too).
At my house, we keep a small bowl of cloves ready to peel.
It is a good idea to eat a clove or two each evening. More often if you feel a scratchy throat or cough starting.
Keeping the garlic cloves on the table will cause it to sprout. The little green sprout can be bitter but just like any other sprout it contains even more nutrients than the "seed". I prefer not to eat the raw sprout and cut the clove in half and easily remove the sprout and toss in compost bucket. When cooking, I chop up the entire clove sprout and all. http://seedtocrop.net/2019/02/reasons-why-not-to-throw-away-sprouted-garlic/
There are so many ways to benefit from eating raw garlic and many herbal recipes to find on the internet.
With this winter weather, I wonder when our garlic will be sprouting in the garden.
