Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 well i did it.. made up some garlic water, soaked feet, feet felt like they's gone on a caffien high! great! they are affected by peripheral neuropathy and the epidermas does not always feel properly.. feels like i have socks on all the time..wierd, but they felt stimulated after the soaking. MY QUESTION is,.. how long can i keep the water before i have to throw it out in the garden? i sure hate to waste a good pod of garlic with all its little cloves <grin> also been putting my paraffin heater to good use with this flair-up and the heat really feels good, too but not as stimulating as the garlic. Love... Granny Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 Lee, The garlic water is not going to be good reheated... The allicin in the garlic is only good for a short amount of time after the clove has been cut. And heating the clove kills the allicin. That is why we say raw garlic... I would make a fresh batch every time I wanted to do it. Sorry!

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 thanks Suzi for the responce and information. when i went to the supermarket before Christmas, they had huge strings of garlic. i didn't need them then, as had quite a bit, but when i went back last week, there were just a few in a little box! so made me especially stingy worried i wouldn't be able to keep a good stock. love.. granny lee- Suzanne Lee, The garlic water is not going to be good reheated...
