A new study has found that women are more attracted to men who've eaten garlic - because they like the smell of their sweat. Scientists believe women have evolved to prefer garlic eaters, because garlic has antibiotic, antiviral and antifungal properties, and this comes through in a man's perspiration, suggesting that the man is healthy. Managing director of the Garlic Farm, Natasha Edwards, was not surprised by the findings, claiming that it was "good news" for garlic lovers. She told 麻豆社 Radio 5 live: "People often ask us, if you eat loads of garlic will people want to sit next to you? Will I have terrible breath? There is some evidence to say that the more garlic you eat, the better your body can deal with it." This clip is originally from 5 live Daily on Thrusday 12 November 2015.
