High Allicin Garlic

Introduction

The health benefits of garlic have been known for thousands of years. Used by the Romans,Egyptians, Chinese and much of southern Europe as medicine and food, garlic has been documented throughout history as a valuable herb. This is because garlic contains the sulfuric acid alliin, which when activated by the enzyme allinase is converted to allicin, the component that gives garlic its traditional medicinal effects and its pungent odor. This means that the more allicin that is in the garlic, the more effective it is. It is often recommended that raw garlic or garlic supplements be used instead of cooked garlic because heat inactivates the allinase, stunting the conversion of alliciin. Our High Allicin Garlic provides a minimum of 5mg raw allicin per tablet. Evidence exists from in vitro and animal studies that garlic-derived organosulfur compounds raise glutathione levels in the body. These garlic-derived organosulfur compounds may inhibit the activity of the inflammatory enzymes in vitro and may decrease the expression of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in inflammatory white blood cells. Organosulfur compounds in garlic have also been found to decrease cholesterol synthesis by liver cells.
