Garlic is a perennial herbaceous bulb that grows to about 0.5-1 meters in height and is native to Europe and Asia. It has a strong odor due to its sulfur compounds and is mainly used as a spice and flavoring in cooking. Known for its medicinal properties, it was said to have been used during the Middle Ages to treat leprosy. American Indians applied it to insect and snake bites to draw out poison. During World War II, it was used in battle wounds to prevent septic infections and gangrene. Additionally, garlic was given to athletes in the ancient Greek Olympic games, as it was said to enhance performance. In ancient Egypt, pyramid builders were fed garlic to keep them healthy and strong. Recent studies have shown that garlic reduces cholesterol and blood sugar levels.
