When I tell people that I do not eat garlic the usual response is always “But you’re Italian?!” Sure, I’m Italian, however, not all Italians consider garlic a main component of every meal. I’m confident in my ability to self-diagnose since there’s no denying the symptoms I get post consumption of garlic – sometimes even after the most minimal amounts. I’m 100% Italian but I have a secret – I don’t eat garlic! The reason? I believe I’ve developed an intolerance to it over the years. An intolerance to garlic can easily go under the radar, especially since more obvious culprits, such as gluten and dairy are so widespread nowadays. For someone who has a sensitivity to garlic it’s widespread use can be a nightmare.
Garlic is a powerful anti-inflammatory compound and one of the most widely used cooking ingredients, found in practically every cuisine in the world.
