If you do decide to take garlic, the American Dietetic Association suggest you need to be taking 600 - 900mg per day - this is equivalent to about 1 fresh clove.
A note of caution: if you are taking garlic supplements and medication such as aspirin or warfarin at the same time, be aware that garlic supplements may further thin your blood - so it's a good idea to check with your doctor first.
