▲ Antibacterial action
The allicin component in garlic is praised by many experts for its powerful antibacterial action. Allicin in garlic acts to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria that can cause various diseases, such as tuberculosis bacteria, typhoid fever bacteria, and Helicobacter pylori bacteria.
▲ Prevention of vascular disease
Garlic also helps prevent various vascular diseases. This is because the ajoene and pyrazine components contained in garlic prevent platelet aggregation and facilitate blood flow. Potassium also helps manage blood pressure by excreting excess sodium from the blood.
▲ Inhibition of inflammation
Inflammation is the root of all diseases. Garlic also has the effect of suppressing this inflammation.
