Indian researchers discussed the beneficial effects of raw crushed garlic (Allium sativum) on metabolic syndrome. When administered to patients with the health disorder, garlic homogenate was reported to decrease risk factors such as hypertension and harmful cholesterol levels.
The researchers received support from the R. N. T. Medical College. They published their scientific paper in the Journal of Dietary Supplements.
Based on the results of their experiment, the researchers believed that raw crushed garlic has great potential as a natural means of preventing metabolic syndrome and a complementary treatment for existing treatments.
