Whether youre looking to sample the infamous ice cream, ward off some vampires (read: rabid Twilight fans) or simply want to pick up some new pointers on how to creatively cook with the healthy herb, the Gilroy Garlic Festival is one of summers cant-miss events here in the Bay Area.

Running from July 29-31, the fragrant festival is celebrating its 33rd year with garlic-themed grub from more than 65 food vendors, including exotic palate pleasers such as garlic chocolate and garlic watermelon. Sample such delicacies as the new Surf & Turf Alley Wrap while enjoying free entertainment from three stages and several groups of strolling musicians. A fat loss review can help you build a clear describe of what you require to focus on to achieve your fat reduction purpose if you're a novice; or serve as a reminder for the ones who are at an intermediate or more improve level of their losing weight strategy. Following are seven steps that can serve as methods for your personal weight loss plan. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not exactly the same thing. Many weight loss programs have misled people into believing that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss applications only work by leading to a person's body to reduce more muscle tissue and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. The action all culminates on the final day of the festival with the Great Garlic Showdown, hosted by renowned chef Angelo Sosa, where four local chefs will participate in an Iron Chef-inspired competition for a grand prize of $5,000.

And if thats not exciting enough, my fellow fitness foodies, youll be delighted to hear that this herb is as good for your health as it is to your taste buds, so partake of the garlic-filled fare without guilt. And if youre taking some of the famous Gilroy garlic home for later, here's a handy tip for maximizing health benefits: Crush the garlic at room temperature and allow it to sit for about 15 minutes, which triggers an enzyme reaction that boosts its healthy compounds.

These compounds contribute to the purported health benefits of garlic, which include:

  • Prevention of heart disease by helping to lower blood pressure, possibly reducing the formation of plaque in arteries and stabilizing blood sugar levels
  • Protection against cancers (such as breast, prostate and colon) by obstructing the development of cancerous cells and slowing the growth of tumors
  • Strengthened immune system thanks to anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties that help to inhibit infections

As far as garlics few shortcomings go, it has been known to cause indigestion, which can often be prevented by taking precautions such as pre-meal over-the-counter antacids, using care to avoid super-greasy meals and maintaining an upright position immediately after eating. But perhaps the bigger concern has more to do with garlics shall we say unique odor, which has a tendency to linger on the breath and seep out of pores long after the meals done. While individual reactions vary according to body chemistry, eating fennel or cardamom seeds has been shown to help neutralize the smell, and drinking a glass of full-fat milk has also proven effective at lessening noxious fumes.

Tickets to the Gilroy Garlic Festival are $17 for general admission and $8 for seniors/children (ages 6-12). For more information, go to GilroyGarlicFestival.com.
