This culinary herb is used in almost every meal. My son always finds a way to use it one way or another. This herb is an immune booster. It helps fight against pathogenic organisms and helps fight infections. You can infuse garlic in honey to keep on hand during the winter months, but I warn you…the taste is not loved by all. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties and ability to fight infections, we add it to our Earache Oil as a fighting companion with our mullein. My daughter gets earaches when she starts to get sick, and our Earache Oil has helped her recover more quickly.
