I have just read about a small child of 4 had bronchitis.  The doctor prescribed several antibiotics, and none of them worked.  The child's mother was at her wits end, trying to help her daughter to heal.  A neighbor finally told her, to rub raw garlic on the child's feel each night, and to put socks over the garlic.  The mother did this, and by the second day, her 4-year-old was in full recovery.  This is one of the uses of garlic that show that garlic works. I have used it when I have a cough or flu and it has worked in treating my infections. Garlic works.
