Is it true that eating a clove of garlic daily or garlic tea before breakfast makes you lose weight? Any experiences on this topic?

    Garlic has no effect on your weight loss, sorry!

    While there are health benefits to consuming a moderate amount of garlic, I don't think weight loss is one of them.

    Can't say it will help you lose weight but it does have health benefits and it tastes delicious - especially with mushrooms! :D

    Eating a clove of garlic a day may make folk appear smaller due to the distance people stand from them. Other than that. No.

    Eating on a deficit makes you lose weight, as stated plenty of times above.

    Eating garlic is just delicious. And it makes your breath funky.

    If you eat a clove of garlic, you'll lose around 500lbs a day...because everyone around you will scatter.

    But it is a delicious spice to add to many tasty dishes. I eat around 4 cloves a day with my cooking, more when my nose sensitive SO is out of town. Yes, garlic is my mistress. My delicious, savory mistress.

    She's at my house right now. She says my fridge is nicer, and I treat her right!

    I have eaten tons of garlic my whole life. I should be super model thin. It does have many great health benefits but is not a miracle cure.

    I love garlic. If it made you lose weight I wouldnt have got fat I eat so much of it. Sadly it isnt a miracle weight loss tool.

    Damn now I want garlic!

    No, no truth to it. Oh how I wish there were. I could move over to the "gaining weight" forum if that were true.
