Garlic

Garlic is known as the king of the herbs and is full of nutrients. Garlic can be given as a general supplement because of its wide-ranging action on the body as well as being a specific herbal remedy for coughs and upper respiratory conditions. Garlic is an antioxidant, expectorant, has anti-viral, antiseptic and antibiotic properties. Garlic can be used to reduce the level of parasites in dogs and is effective to repel fleas and worms. Garlic stimulates normal digestive processes and can be used for a wide range of skin conditions. Garlic can remove toxins from the body, supports the immune system to help increase resistance to infection, especially for the older pet.
