[Citation Needed][edit]

Was this written by someone from VitaNet LLC (an online vitamin and herb retailer) by any chance? All the quoted sources were grabbed from a single page at that company's website, and the fact that there are no inline citations makes me ever-so-slightly suspicious of the claimed health benefits. It could do with at least one of no-footnotes / one-source / self-published. I'll tag with the first two, since the third is likely to be more contentious.

Viral diseases?[edit]

"Studies have established that the most active factors in garlic, including allistatin I and allistatin II, are sulphur-containing compounds which are powerful agents against staphylococcus and Escherichia coli (E. coli), very common bacteria which can cause serious infections and, under certain conditions, can end up serious or even fatal. For this reason, Russia and other countries, use garlic routinely and extensively to treat numerous infections and diseases such as whooping cough, grippe (Flu) and a whole host of infectious diseases of viral and bacterial origin."

This doesn't make any sense - why are they using it "for this reason" to treat viral diseases when the text above only mentions that the compounds are antibiotic? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.224.117.137 (talk) 19:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
