Just making the point that folk remedies which do some good things can also
have negative effects that are overlooked. I used to eat raw garlic by the
ton. One year I started taking a buffered form of vitamin C that
alkalinized my intestinal tract and suppressed favorable bacteria levels.
Found that I could no longer eat raw garlic without getting yeast
infections. Various soil conditions could interact with garlic, which is a
natural germicide, in a way that would kill off beneficial organisms for
the soil. Just a thought.
