I think Hippocrates may have been thinking of garlic in it's natural state
when he spoke this quote

Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease.

A mouth watering close-up for sure. There are are many quotes in the preceding comments; I would like to put in a quote by Balzac about food in general, he said "a little too much is just right". V

Mmm tasty photo! :-) According to Culpeper (1653), garlic may "send up strong fancies, and as many strange visions to the head" so he advises that it "be taken inwardly with great moderation" but "outwardly you may make more bold with it." ;-)
