I have a 2 acre organic farm and will be growing it next year. I'm in my mid 50's and consume about a pound of garlic (fresh and bottled) a week. Fortunately I've never had a reaction. The man running my 2 acres is from Ecuador and very familiar with episote. He taught Agriculture at UC Santa Cruz has worked with John Jevons (Father of Bio Dynamic gardening) and was a foreman at Molino Creek Co-Op. Santa Cruz. Here is one bit of info I gleaned from google. I'll try to find more. "Rick Bayless Chef/owner Rick Bayless of Frontera Grill in Chicago, known for his skills in cooking Mexican food, creates a Black Bean Tortilla Casserole and Rick's Refried Beans. Bayless offers a number of tips for his dish, such as using an herb called episote to add taste to (and remove gas from) beans; and buying tortillas produced locally, and without preservatives, if possible."
