News.co.au reports on research that appears to confirm a piece of garlic folklore - that its beneficial effects extend to the bedroom.

It's been known for some time that garlic can help to defend against heart attack by improving circulation. Now Dr Joerg Gruenwald of Berlin University reports that the same effect can possibly improve male sexual performance. Gruenwald said:

"A lot of men with heart disease will have impotence but not realise poor circulation and narrowing of the arteries in the groin is to blame.

"Garlic can help. A good flow of blood to the groin means a man should not have a problem with sex."

Unfortunately normal levels of garlic consumption are unlikely to make a significant difference. Instead he suggests considering garlic supplements.
