A Garde or Gad is a protection administered by a Hougan or Mambo, typically there are 2 main types of Garde, the Stomach Garde in which the person receiving the Garde drinks a concoction of animal blood and other various herbs to prevent poisons and wanga worked through food, and the Arm Garde in which 2 cuts are made in the arm and herbs are rubbed in thus sealing the spirit of a Lwa in the body to protect against attacks.
