Raw garlic and high blood pressure

Written by: Dr. Rowena | Posted: Jan 02 2009

Q: Does taking raw garlic help in the control of BP?

A: Most studies evaluating garlic and high blood pressure looked at various garlic preparations, not raw garlic. Substituting raw garlic for salt in seasoning food certainly will help control blood pressure in salt sensitive individuals. Other than that, it is hard to make any specific recommendations about raw garlic.
