Cautions and Contraindications:
Do not take garlic in large quantities if suffering with a degenerative or diseased liver, gallbladder, bile duct, or pancreas. One action of garlic in the body is to stir the bile flow, and it can result in nausea if the above organs are malfunctioning or even sluggish. Always build up your intake gradually, increasing by one-quarter clove every few days. Garlic should also be used with care in pregnancy and avoid high doses. Garlic may increase the risk of bleeding.
