Yes, you don’t just metablize the stuff, it’s in the pores and everywhere else in the body after eating it. The active substance, allicin, is an organic sulfur compound so small that it penetrates cell walls. It also has antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, and possibly other ones we don’t know about yet.

Heh, on a hot day, I could clear-off an entire tennis court just by sweating, after eating 30-40 roasted cloves the night before. When I was in my Family Farm Business' office, some people would walk in, pivot 180° to walk out, while saying, "What the hell died in here?" LOL. The ones who asked if I had some roasted garlic for them, immediately became friends. (I'd even take them out to my private shooting range and bring along some of my Class III Firearms.)
