I do have shelves of vitamins because I shop at
Puritan pride
where you get
buy two get three free deals

I try not to cook garlic in the house when smashed or finely chopped.
boiling whole they go to almost a potato type texture and are very mild but still do the job!
if I want strong garlic tho I fine chop it and cook it low heat in butter til golden brown
and slightly crunchy then make garlic bread.
sometimes I make my NUCLEAR shrimp when flu symptoms arrive
I boil them then butter fly them (cleaned) and having already dipped them in fine black pepper
I add some

Mongolian FIRE oil

to the griddle but you need MAXIMUM ventilation
ie exhaust fans running because
it's like tear gas strong... no exaggeration !
but you eat one and like ten seconds later tiny beads of sweat
form on top of your nose....
and you get a head rush like eating that hot yellow Chinese mustard
these I make if I am 100% congested and stuck in Phlegm city
