Garlic is not only known to deter vampires, but also potential mates.  That’s because of a malodorous component called allyl sulfide.

But wouldn't you know it, this same compound has “many health benefits."  It has even been associated with memory improvement in older mice. 

Scientists are therefore hoping for similar results in humans.  So if you’re trying to recall just where those keys went, grab a hunk of garlic bread and start chewing.
