10. A pungent cure

The powerful bacteria-fighting properties of garlic have attracted a great deal of attention from health food enthusiasts and others in recent years. Some preliminary studies indicate that garlic extracts prevent the development of the bacteria that constitute one of the main causes of stomach ulcers. Some recommend eating a couple of cloves of raw garlic each day over several days to reduce stomach bacteria. However, in the light of conclusive evidence for the effectiveness of any of these natural cures, a visit to a regular doctor remains essential.
