PRODUCT RESEARCH / SAFETY
Garlic is not only an herb used to flavor the culinary dishes of almost every culture; it’s been used to treat or prevent diseases and ailments since ancient history was in the making, and is still used to this day. Traditionally, garlic has been used to relieve symptoms associated with upper respiratory tract infections and bronchial congestions. In a controlled study, people who ate raw garlic at a minimum of twice a week had a 44 percent lower risk of getting lung cancer. When the garlic is crushed, alliin turns into allicin, an antibiotic that fights against fungal and bacterial infection. And it also protects the body against parasites, viruses, and yeast infections. Before the synthetic antibiotics were created, garlic was used as a medicine to treat infections. Garlic contains sulfhydryl, allicin, and sulfur-containing compounds that defend against various diseases.
The garlic extract has been deodorized while maintaining the nutritional value of garlic.
