Garlic has long been used in cooking and in medicine. When a garlic bulb is cut or crushed, an amino acid by-product called allicin is released. Allicin is responsible for garlic’s strong odor and medicinal properties.
Because the active ingredients are destroyed when the garlic is crushed, the amount of active ingredient in the various forms of garlic varies greatly. Aged garlic extract (AGE), made from garlic allowed to age for at least 20 months, has more stable active compounds than most forms. Consuming garlic supplements in this form appears to provide the greatest health benefits and with fewer adverse effects.
