Allimax Garlic

Allimax Garlic

Garlic happens to be one of the oldest known cultivated plants and has been used around the world for culinary and medicinal purposes for centuries. Today, China produces a whopping 76% of the world's garlic supply. Chemically speaking, garlic is 65% water, 28% carbohydrates, 2.3% organosulfur compounds (which give it its aroma and taste), 2% proteins, 1.2% amino acids, and 1.5% fibre. Garlic is also very nutrient-dense and contains numerous vitamins such as A, C, E, K, and B-complex vitamins, alongside minerals like phosphorus, zinc, potassium, and magnesium. No wonder supplements like Allimax are so beneficial for health.

In addition, garlic contains unique bioactive compounds that studies have shown exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, immunomodulatory, cardiovascular protective, anticancer, hepatoprotective, digestive system protective, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, neuroprotective, and renal protective properties. So, what bioactive compounds does garlic actually contain? Let's explore...

Active Compounds In Garlic

Nutritional research has shown that garlic comprises over 200 chemical compounds, most notably allicin, alliin, diallyl sulfide, diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide, ajoene, and S-allyl-cysteine. Of these, allicin is believed to be responsible for the lion's share of garlic's health benefits. 

But garlic itself does not contain allicin; rather, garlic produces allicin only once its structure is ruptured and two other compounds, alliin and alliinase, come into contact to form allicin which attacks the cell walls of soil-borne micro-organisms. 

Unfortunately, allicin is an "unstable" compound because it's only present in fresh, unheated garlic that has been cut or crushed but not cooked. In fact, allicin quickly degrades once it has been extracted from garlic, which makes it challenging to preserve in supplement form. To address this issue, a company called Allimax Garlic developed a patented process called "Allisure," which stabilizes and preserves allicin in a highly concentrated form. The Allisure process involves extracting and purifying allicin from fresh garlic and then transforming it into a stable and highly bioavailable supplement that retains all of the therapeutic power of fresh allicin.

Allimax Garlic offers a range of garlic supplements that contain bioactive, stabilized allicin. These come in a range of potencies, in capsule or gel format, according to your preference.

What makes Allimax Garlic different is that when it enters the stomach, it quickly dissolves for easy absorption into the bloodstream, where it breaks down to form allicin derivatives. Allimax Garlic supplements are ideally suited for:

• Supporting Digestion
• Promoting Cardiovascular Health
• Treating Bacterial, Fungal & Viral Infections
• Lowering Blood Pressure and Cholesterol
• Protecting Against the Cold and Flu
• Reducing Oxidative Stress

Final Thoughts

Garlic is generally considered safe for consumption and is used as a traditional remedy in many cultures; however, allergic reactions can occur in some individuals. The most common allergic reaction to garlic is contact dermatitis, which typically manifests as a skin rash or irritation as a result of the skin coming into direct contact with garlic or garlic-containing products, such as topical ointments or oils.

It's worth noting that some people may confuse an intolerance or sensitivity to garlic with a true allergy. Intolerance or sensitivity to garlic can cause symptoms such as digestive issues, heartburn, or bloating, but these reactions are not caused by the immune system and are different from an allergic reaction.

If you suspect you may be allergic to garlic, it is recommended to consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner for proper diagnosis and guidance.
