Yes, garlic causes more gastro-intestinal distress than nearly any other food product. Gas, bloating, intestinal cramps, and diarrhea are common effects of eating garlic, especially if you are sensitive to it. The supposed health benefits of garlic and the common myth that "garlic is good for you" does not apply if it makes you sick. If you eat out often or use prepared foods it is nearly impossible to avoid garlic because it is the most overused ingredient in food preparation. The mentality seems to be that if a lot of garlic is dumped into food it turns into quisine.

Uric acid can be reduced by the use of garlic. . The garlic can be used as salts, powders, or cloves in cooking.

That is not to say that there are no health benefits, and provided it's taken in moderation, it's unlikely to do any harm to your health. (Can't say the same for your love life!)
