Benefits of Black Garlic

Contains more antioxidants than raw garlic

The aging process causes black garlic to contain substantially more antioxidants than raw garlic.
Antioxidants are compounds that help protect your cells from oxidative damage, which may otherwise lead to various diseases. People mostly consume antioxidants via plant foods, including garlic

May help regulate blood sugar

Uncontrolled high blood sugar in people with diabetes can increase the risk of complications, including kidney damage, infections, and heart disease.

In a 2019 study in rats fed a diet high in fat and sugar, treatment with an extract of black garlic resulted in metabolic improvements such as lowered cholesterol, decreased inflammation and appetite regulation

May reduce the risk of heart disease

A different study gave 60 people with elevated cholesterol 6 grams of either aged black garlic extract or a placebo daily for 12 weeks. Black garlic increased HDL (good) cholesterol and reduced potential heart disease markers.
One study gave participants with coronary heart disease 20 grams of black garlic extract daily for 6 months. Those who consumed it experienced increased antioxidant levels and improved indicators of heart health compared with those who took a placebo

Compounds in black garlic may protect brain health

Black garlic may help prevent inflammation that can impair memory and worsen brain function over time.

Scientists have suggested that inflammation of the nervous system may play a role in the development of Alzheimer’s disease (1Trusted Source6Trusted Source).

One rat study found that black garlic could reduce brain inflammation caused by beta amyloid and even improve short term memory

May have anticancer properties

Several studies indicate a positive effect of black garlic in fighting cancer cells.

In a test tube study in the blood of 21 volunteers, black garlic extract showed stronger immune-stimulating, antioxidant, and anticancer activities than raw garlic extract (19Trusted Source).

In fact, the researchers found that the black garlic extract solution was toxic to lung, breast, stomach, and liver cancer cells within 72 hours.

Black garlic may help protect your liver

Black garlic may help protect the liver from damage that can come from its constant exposure to chemicals, medications, alcohol, and germs.

Rat studies have found that black garlic exerts protective effects in the event of a liver injury, preventing further liver damage (24Trusted Source).
