Garlic oil 1000mg - 60 capsules
Garlic belongs to the garlic family, which also includes leek, onion and chives. Garlic is used as a seasoning in the kitchen, but is also known for its interesting effect on the body.
Garlic contains unique sulfur-containing compounds. The bioactive substance is allicin. Garlic macerate oil contains a high amount of allicin. These capsules contain at least 1.2 mg allicin.
What is allicin?
Allicin is the sulfur compound that gives garlic the characteristic smell and taste. It is a natural substance that is formed in the plant itself to protect it against external influences. When the plant is attacked or damaged, an enzymatic reaction occurs that produces allicin. This substance is also released when fresh garlic is crushed.
Allicin has a relatively low boiling point and therefore evaporates when garlic is heated. However, most people do not find raw garlic very pleasant to eat, and a large amount of raw garlic must be eaten to get an interesting amount of allicin. Garlic oil capsules are therefore a solution for those who want to benefit from the health benefits of allicin. Capsules with garlic extract are standardized to at least 1% of the bioactive substance allicin.
What are the benefits of garlic oil?
Garlic has an antioxidant effect*, supports the immune system*, has a beneficial effect on the heart and blood vessels*, is good for cholesterol levels* and helps balance blood sugar.*
*Health claim pending European approval.
