Does anyone know of any decent peer-reviewed scientific studies on the effect of garlic consumption on the common cold? I've googled it, but just got tons of daily mail / take a break / hippies online type fluff articles. Also, I have a cold, so my research skills are possibly dulled a little.
Oh, I'd forgotten about the garlic thing. I knew a guy who married a Welsh nurse and she swore that the way to cure a cold was to chop up a whole bulb of garlic, very fine, fry it in butter, and then spread the mixture on toast. Sounded rank to me, wouldn't there be garlic chunks? And not very scientific either.
I also have a cold and I feel your pain, bro. Actually I do have some garlic bread in the fridge. Perhaps I'll eat it all, in the interests of experiment. Science!
