Garlic<\/strong> it's a concept<\/strong> which derives from al\u012dum<\/em>, a Latin word. The term refers to a plant<\/strong> whose bulb<\/strong> it is used as food. By extension, the parts (known as teeth<\/strong>) into which the bulb is divided.<\/p>\n

\"Garlic\"For example: \"I always add garlic and oregano to tomato sauce to give it more flavor\"<\/em>, \"You can tell that someone has been cooking around here: there is a lot of garlic smell\"<\/em>, \"Please don't add garlic to the puree because I don't like it\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The scientific name of the garlic plant is Allium sativum<\/strong>. As the onion<\/strong>, the chives<\/strong> or chive<\/strong>, the Green onion<\/strong> or spring onion<\/strong> and the leek<\/strong> or garlic porro<\/strong>, garlic belongs to the genus Allium<\/strong> Yet the family<\/strong> of the liliaceae<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Native of Asia<\/strong>, garlic has been cultivated for thousands of years. It can reach a height of 40<\/strong> centimeters and has whitish flowers. As for its bulb, it has a characteristic smell and is made up of several teeth that form the so-called heads<\/strong> of garlic.<\/p>\n

Garlic is a seasoning<\/strong> very popular in much of the world. In fact, there are recipes that are based on the use of garlic, such as garlic chicken<\/strong>, the garlic soup<\/strong> and the Aioli<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is important to mention that garlic is recognized for several properties that are beneficial for the Health<\/strong>. Its consumption contributes to cholesterol control, helps reduce blood pressure, minimizes the effects of arteriosclerosis and increases the amount of insulin.<\/p>\n

In the same way, we cannot ignore that it is also recommended to take garlic for another series of advantages that it brings. Specifically, among the most significant are the following:
-It is believed to be a great natural antibiotic.
-Diverse studies carried out indicate that its intake can help reduce the chances of suffering from cancer.
-It is also recommended to include garlic in the diet because it is a great food to significantly improve blood circulation.
-No less important is that it helps to promote digestion.
-In the same way, it is believed that it manages to favor and boost defenses. <\/p>\n

We cannot forget either that one of its best varieties is the so-called black garlic. This is obtained by placing the traditional garlic, white, in a container with sea water to ferment. It is also recommended to take it to prevent cancer and keep both cholesterol and blood pressure under control. You should also know that it is considered to be softer, tender and less odorous than white garlic.<\/p>\n

To all the above we have to add that garlic has played a fundamental role in the literature. Yes, because it is the product with which you can repel one of the most terrifying fictional characters in history: the vampire. <\/p>\n

And we must not forget the existence of the expression \"being on the hook\", which is used to indicate that someone is involved in a specific matter. <\/p>\n

Finally, garlic can be a suffix<\/strong> that is added to adjectives or nouns to make them diminutives or give them a disparaging tinge: \"I'm not going to let this little guy give me orders.\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n
