Will Eating Garlic Lower Your Cholesterol?

Garlic is terrific for your blood pressure and immune system but, unfortunately, your cholesterol won’t budge. “The cholesterol health claims on herbal garlic supplements can be misleading and false,” says Christopher Gardner, an associate professor of medicine at the Stanford University of Medicine.

In a recent study, Gardner’s team gave 192 people with moderately high LDL-cholesterol levels both raw garlic and garlic pills every day for 6 months. There was no improvement in their LDL cholesterol levels.
