Original Note:
The claim that garlic is 100 times more effective than antibiotic treatments is not supported by scientific evidence. While garlic can boost your immune system and has some potential health benefits, it should not be used as a substitute for antibiotic treatments. https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/chemical-in-garlic-eliminates-certain-bacterial-cells-faster-than-two-common-antibiotics-but-not-by-100-times/ https://www.livestrong.com/article/489317-how-much-garlic-equals-an-antibiotic/ https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00203-021-02248-z https://asm.org/articles/2019/july/old-wives-tales-and-garlic-as-an-antibiotic-are-mi https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/npr-news-natural-news/
