Medicinal Qualities of Garlic
- E. Sapáková
Garlic (Allium sativum L.) has been used for its medical properties for thousands of years. However, investigations of its medical substances are relatively new. It has a broad spectrum of actions such as antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antiprotozoal. It also has positive effects on the cardiovascular and immune systems. This review aims to address the historical use of garlic and its sulfur chemistry, and to provide a brief summary of its botanical properties.
