For some long time I was looking for a good garic press but I was frustrated with all of my purchases until I bought my last one from Wilde Group. This garlic press is not really big not a small one either just a right size for my garlic recipes. 

Garlic can lower blood pressure by 10%... but only if you take it in tablet form but for me tablet is out of question as it upset my stomach so I have rely on natural intake through cooking etc. Researchers claim those with hypertension, or high blood pressure, could control their condition better by adding garlic to conventional medication.

"A daily dose of garlic can save your life", is the headline in the Daily Express. People with high blood pressure who took garlic supplements daily for up to five months "saw their blood pressure levels drop significantly. In some cases, the drop was as much as that seen in patients taking drugs such as beta blockers and ACE inhibitors", the newspaper says. It goes on to point out that "researchers have yet to establish whether garlic supplements are as effective as prescribed medicines when used for many years."

Although the research is reliable, the newspaper's claims for garlic are somewhat overblown. The research involved pooling results from 11 studies of garlic preparations (mainly garlic powder), and found that they reduced blood pressure more than inactive placebo pills in people with high blood pressure (hypertension). The review did not assess whether garlic preparations were as effective as high blood pressure medications (antihypertensives such as beta blockers or ACE inhibitors) or whether they reduced deaths from high blood pressure-related illnesses. In the absence of trials directly comparing garlic preparations versus blood pressure medication, people taking them should not be tempted to switch to garlic preparations.
