📫 Garlic & Certainty – Weekend Words #043

In partnership with

It’s July 12, and here are your weekend words: Garlic and Certainty.

“Take fresh garlic, for instance. If we put it in hot oil or hot foods right away, we destroy its ability to produce allicin, an important cancer-fighting compound.

But if you simply chop (fresh garlic) and set it aside for 10 minutes, during the time that it’s resting, the garlic makes copious amounts of allicin. And once it forms, it is not destroyed by later cooking.”

— Dr. Steven Lin, The Dental Diet

“You must be able to say, with reasonable certainty, "I understand," before you can say "I agree," or "I disagree," or "I suspend judgment.”

— Mortimer Adler, How to Read a Book
