Researchers To Combat Global Climate Change With Garlic

Posted by Llanrhystud Childminder On Friday, June 19, 2009
I found this fascinating article today:
Scientists from the University of Aberystwyth in Wales, screened more than 3 000 plant extracts. Of these, 10 had promise.

"One turned out to be our secret weapon,"
David Williams said.

In their rumen simulator, they found that the garlic extract cut methane output by 94 percent.

Not only that, but the garlic is an antibacterial, and so reduced the need for antibiotics, helped resistance to bovine TB, and killed intestinal worms.
