They may also cause modest reductions in total and low-density lipoprotein, or "bad," cholesterol levels.

People taking garlic supplements acquire significantly fewer colds than people taking a placebo. Additionally, the National Institutes of Health report that garlic may help to reduce the severity of upper-respiratory infections, including coughs and colds.
