Caution: Because garlic is a powerful anticoagulant (prevents blood clotting), you should not take it in large amounts if you have a clotting disorder. Also, check with your health practitioner about the safety of combining garlic with other anti-clotting substances, such as aspirin. Stop using garlic two weeks before any scheduled surgery.
