Garlic supplements may have an important role to play in the treatment of hypercholesterolaemia. To determine the effect of garlic on serum lipids and lipoproteins relative to placebo and other lipid lowering agents, a systematic review, including meta-analysis, was undertaken of published and unpublished randomised controlled trials of garlic preparations of at least four weeks' duration. Stud...

The competency of garlic and pennywort to improve broiler chicken growth and influence intestinal microbial communities and fatty acid composition of breast meat were studied. Two hundred forty, "day-old" chicks were randomly allocated to 4 treatment groups consisting of 6 replications of 10 chicks in each pen. The groups were assigned to receive treatment diets as follows: i) basal diet (contr...

Several properties of garlic (Allium sutivum L . ) can be attributed to its ability to physiologically increase nitric oxide (NO)[ 11. NO is produced from arginine by NO synthase (NOS; EC 1.14.13.39) which can exist in both constitutive (calciumdependent) and inducible (calcium-independent) isoforms [ 21. Tetrahydrobiopterin, an essential co-factor for NOS 131, is synthesized from GTP by GTP cy...

Extremely high accumulation of allxiin, a phytoalexin derived from garlic, was observed in necrotic tissue areas after long-term storage. The allixin produced recrystallized on the surface of the garlic clove. The amount of allixin produced in raw garlic with necrotic tissue areas was 1400 ng/mg wet garlic, which exceeds the minimum exhibitory concentration of allixin. After approximately 2 yea...
