Fb video: "onions contain allicin, a powerful antibiotic and you can extract it via this method"
Me: omg what no
(Allicin isn't antibiotic at all. It's also a terribly unstable compound, deactivated by extreme acidity. So eating it does exactly nothing, it gets neutralized in the stomach)

(For those who are wondering how, one of the chief chemicals that gives garlic its flavor is allicin. Allicin absorbs through the skin and enters the blood stream. You taste it as that blood reaches your taste buds.)

garlic is considered an aphrodisiac due to its allicin compound, which improves blood flow to the sex organs and supports overall cardiovascular health. Additionally, studies suggest it may help increase testosterone levels in animals and improve male fertility.

🧄 Tip: Crush or chop garlic and let it sit for about 10 minutes before cooking. This gives allicin time to form. Prolonged cooking over high heat may reduce the amount of allicin.

First thing up after the snow clears. Allicin in the bulb: antimicrobial, prebiotic, broad anti-infective. If the wild garlic is here, the hard season is done.

Why Grandma’s classic cold remedy with Garlic actually works
In today's episode we're exploring the science behind garlic and why grandma’s classic cold remedy actually works.
When you crush or chop garlic, the enzyme alliinase converts alliin into allicin, the primary compound responsible for garlic's immune-boosting benefits.
However, heat-sensitive enzymes like alliinase are easily destroyed by immediate cooking, reducing medicinal potency.
By simply crushing garlic and letting it rest for ten minutes before cooking or eating, you preserve its maximum biological activity.
Join us as we break down simple daily preparation steps, clinical evidence on cold prevention, and traditional wellness tips to strengthen your body naturally.
