I can't say enough about the benefits of garlic. Garlic is touted as a super health food by many medical experts and I have to agree. Many cultures have garlic at the core of their diet and attribute long life and good health to it. It's well worth it to find ways to increase the amount of garlic you eat each day.

As for broccoli, it's another one of those super-foods. It's healthy, full of nutrition, naturally low in carbs and calories, and it's tasty too. Especially when you mix it in with garlic :).
