There was a BBC guy who laughed at garlic and it has antiplatelet activity and together with low dose aspirin lowers cardiovascular episodes.
Lowering of lipids by American drugs is a CIA conspiracy (aided by scientific community) and with long term simavastin treatment old guys / girls get Dementia.
Antilipid drugs do not lower cardio-vascular episodes.

Garlic and Medical Research
Cardiovascular
As
of 2015, clinical research to determine the possible effects of
consuming garlic on hypertension has found no clear effect.
A
2016 meta-analysis indicated there was no effect of garlic
consumption on blood levels of lipoprotein(a), a biomarker of
atherosclerosis.
Because
garlic might reduce platelet aggregation, people taking anticoagulant
medication are cautioned about consuming garlic.
Cancer
A
2016 meta-analysis of case-control and cohort studies found a
moderate inverse association between garlic intake and some cancers
of the upper digestive tract.
Another
meta-analysis found decreased rates of stomach cancer associated with
garlic intake, but cited confounding factors as limitations for
interpreting these studies.
Further
meta-analyses found similar results on the incidence of stomach
cancer by consuming allium vegetables including garlic.
A
2014 meta-analysis of observational epidemiological studies found
that garlic consumption was associated with a lower risk of stomach
cancer in Korean people.
A
2016 meta-analysis found no effect of garlic on colorectal cancer.
A
2014 meta-analysis found garlic supplements or allium vegetables to
have no effect on colorectal cancers.
A
2013 meta-analysis of case-control and cohort studies found limited
evidence for an association between higher garlic consumption and
reduced risk of prostate cancer, but the studies were suspected as
having publication bias.
A
2013 meta-analysis of epidemiological studies found garlic intake to
be associated with decreased risk of prostate cancer.
Common cold
A
2014 Cochrane review found insufficient evidence to determine the
effects of garlic in preventing or treating the common cold.
Other
reviews concluded a similar absence of high-quality evidence for
garlic having a significant effect on the common cold.
