Subject: GARLIC WARNING!!!!!! - scary!

No more garlic for me!








For years Doctors and scientists have told us


that some food's are good for us only to be told


later that they bad for us... and again they tell us


that some food's are bad for us, and all the time


they've been good for us. There doesn't seem


to be much proof either way to suggest what is


good or bad until now that is.


Garlic is definitely BAD for us

That is gross, yuk!

However, dogs should take note of the following:

GARLIC FOR HUMAN AND DOG HEALTH

Numerous medical studies show how garlic juice reduces cholesterol and helps the heart.
Worldwide people take garlic pills, eat garlic cloves and spray garlic juice on food for good health.

For dogs it does even more:
1. Keeps dogs from having worms and gets rid of worms that are there.
2. Keeps fleas and ticks off dogs by getting into the dog's system and creating
a garlic odor that fleas and ticks detect and avoid the dog altogether.
(Don't worry, your dog won't smell like garlic. Humans can't detect
the garlic odor on the dog but the insects sure will!)
3. Reduces a dog's cholesterol level for good heart function.

Garlic Juice is easiest way to give garlic to your dog, here's how most kennels and dog owners do it:
Spray or pour garlic into the dog's food, mix well into the food.

Here's the recommended daily dosage:

5-20 lb. dogs - 4 sprays or 1/4 ounce in food daily.
21-50 lb. dogs - 6 sprays into food and mix well.
51 lbs. and over dogs 8 sprays into food and mix well.

If, for some rare reason your dog will not eat food with the garlic juice in it, mix the garlic
juice with soybean oil (available in the cooking oil section at your local supermarket) and mix
into food - this also helps make a very nice coat on the dog.

Say goodbye to poisonous flea collars! Mother Nature has provided a safe and all-natural
alternative - farm fresh garlic juice!

Please note that garlic is not recommended for cats or, toy dog breeds[Emphasis Added]

Garlic is of great benefit to all, from time immemorial...
Garlic flowers, also.

According to the Encyclopedia of Superstitions by Edwin and Mona Radford (Philosophical Library, 1949), garlic was hung about houses in Scotland on All Hollow's Evil to keep out evil spirits.

Almost thirty years after the publication of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Agnes Murgoci wrote in her article "The Vampire in Roumania" (Folk-Lore, December, 1926):

• "Garlic keeps off vampires, wolves, and evil spirits, and millet has a similar action. On St. Andrew's Eve [Nov. 29] and St. George's Eve [April 22], and before Easter and the New Year, windows should be anointed with garlic in the form of a cross, garlic put on the door and everything in the house, and all the cows in the cow shed should be rubbed with garlic.
  When vampires do enter, they do by the chimney or the keyhole, so these orifices require special attention when garlic is rubbed in. Even although the window is anointed with garlic, it is wisest to keep it shut."
  
  Superstition, maybe?
  
  My home grown garlic flower garlands are brought into the house on, the eve of Halloween.
