10. Garlic
Garlic is not really something that you can eat on its own, but it is used all over the world as a condiment or seasoning. Another interesting fact about garlic is that it has the ability to lower the cholesterol levels in your body. It keeps the blood from clotting, prevents infections and reduces blood pressure. Pickled garlic is also able to add a little bit of zing to any dish, if you love pickled things. If you do not use garlic in your food, then you should start using it more often, because you just cannot go wrong with it, besides the smell.
