Garlic
(Garlic) Garlic has its origin in Europe, but is now grown throughout the world, as the demand for its pungently flavored bulb has grown as an additive to cooking delights. Garlic is a member of the lily family, as are onions. Studies have shown that consuming about 10 cloves of garlic (or the oil from the same amount of garlic) a day reduces blood cholesterol LDL (the bad type) and increases the HDL (the good type). Our belief is that with a healthful vegan (no animal products) diet, much less garlic would produce the same results. See the nutritional chart below.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live! (d-6)
