Ingredients, pharmaceuticals.
Garlic has 3 main active ingredients allicin and liallyl sulfide and ajoene. Allicin is the strongest and most important substance of garlic. Allicin is not present in garlic. However, when sliced or crushed and under the influence of anilase, the aliin present in the garlic becomes allicin. Therefore, the more chopped or crushed, the higher the activity. One garlic can produce 1 to 2 grams of allicin. Allicin is easily deformed after being made. The longer it takes, the less active it becomes. Cooking will accelerate the loss of this substance. Microwaveing will completely destroy allicin. Allicin is a very powerful antibiotic that is stronger than penicillin. Garlic juice diluted 125,000 times is still inhibited many gram negative and gram positive bacteria such as saphylococcus, streptococcus, samonella, V. cholerae, B. dysenteriae, mycobacterium tuberculosis. Garlic also inhibits the growth of many viruses, such as influenza viruses, poliomyelitis, influenza and some fungal pathogens in the skin or female genitals such as candida.
Liallyl sulfide is not as strong as allicin. However, sulfide does not decay as fast as allicin and retains its medicinal properties when cooked. Like allicin, the smaller the more sulfid is produced, if cooked raw garlic will not be effective. Garlic not only has an antibiotic effect, but also has effects on the cardiovascular system. Chinese and Italian studies published in the British Journal of Cancer in March 1993 also reported that garlic contains many active substances that may block the growth of many types of cancerous tumors. According to University of Pennsylvania scientists, the ability to block cancer tumors of garlic involves S-allyl cysteine compounds, diallyl disulfide and diallyl trisulfide. Another less active ingredient is ajoene. Ajoene also reduces blood stickiness. In addition, garlic also has a high content of selenium, a powerful antioxidant that enhances cell membrane protection, cancer prevention and cardiovascular disease.

A garlic research has been published in Praxis in Europe.

The dose decreases over the next 2 weeks, followed by a maintenance dose.
Another article in Lancet (31.5.1975) by Dr. R.C. Jain, M.D. University of Benghzi, Lybya also mentioned a study on the blood-lowering effect of garlic tested on experimental rabbits. A group of rabbits were fed with a high fat diet so that total cholesterol levels soared to 2,100. Another group of rabbits who ate the same food but added garlic extract had an average cholesterol level of just 419. Scientists say that cholesterol levels are still high compared to normal. However, the improvement of the fat in the blood of garlic is very clear. Dr. Jain also said that the plaque in the rabbits used garlic is not as serious as the rabbit does not use garlic.
A study by a group of Indian scientists on healthy subjects who were given about 2 ounces (about 57 grams) of garlic or equivalent garlic extract, the average cholesterol dropped from 229 to 213 in 3 clock hour In another study, some men with moderate to high blood pressure were given garlic tablets. The results showed that these people not only lowered cholesterol but also lowered blood pressure within 10 to 40 days. A daily report of ½ to 1 garlic in 8 to 24 weeks can lower cholesterol by about 9 percent, according to a report from New York University scientists.
The mechanism of action of garlic on the cardiovascular system. Garlic lowers cholesterol by increasing the excretion of cholesterol and decreasing the absorption of bad cholesterol through the intestinal membrane thereby reducing blood lipid levels. The active substance of garlic is similar to prostaglandin hormone PGI2 has just opened the blood vessels to block the platelet aggregation should work to lower blood pressure. Ajoene in garlic also reduces the level of fibrinogen in the blood, reducing the risk of thrombosis.

Garlic is a spice that has the strongest antioxidants among ordinary spices, which can halt this process.
