General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
There have been many studies on the effects of garlic and the amount of garlic a person should consume everyday. Studies show that 2-5 grams of fresh raw garlic are recommended for daily use. It doesn't matter with what you take them or the number of cloves used, in the end it comes down to the weight of garlic you consume.
I hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
Wish you good health and good appetite!
