It is best to leave it for 10 minutes to get the most allicin after chopping or crushing with a garlic press. Mix in the highest allicin content raw or after cooking when the stove has been turned off
Remember to support organic growers! The extra cost for the produce could perhaps be seen as health insurance.. both for your body and the Earths. ‘Get big or get out’ is devastating our soils and environments. As a small producer I grow seasonal fruit and veg on just a few acres and can confirm nobody does this for money! Yet small scale local diversity is essential. With money making the decisions over health we racing towards a dark future💚🙏🏽
Since we're approaching Autumn I thought I'd mention garlic is incredibly easy to grow. Plant cloves pointy end up in October and ignore them. Harvest next summer. Hardneck gives you delicious scapes to eat before the bulbs mature. Cut scapes while they're still curly and tender and about three weeks later harvest the cloves. Save some to plant that Fall. You can plant it anywhere, even in a flower bed as it doesn't take up much room at all. If you plant enough you'll never have to buy it again.
I eat 4-8 grams of raw garlic every day with my hi carb wfpb diet. 60 years old, never had cancer, never even get a hint of cold. Never get flu, covid, coughs, sore throats, nothing. Super fit, super healthy, all blood work exceptional.
@@curtisgrife I make all my sauces raw in the blender. So curries are made with raw whole spices, garlic, ginger, tomatos, flax, chia, etc and blended to a puree. It's saves a ton of time, gas electric, tastes way better and is way healthier as well. Only cook things that need cooking, let it cool and add the rest raw. The odd thing out is onion, as i add loads of onion into a curry it would be overpowering if i did it all raw. So i cook about 3/4 of it and the rest goes into the blender. Yes, the food is only body temp warm, but i hate hot food anyway. Food tastes better at body temp as your taste buds work better.
@@curtisgrife Parsley's a great idea. It's VERY nutritious, too. I put garlic in salad dressing (no oil), using the flat of the knife blade & a bit of salt to make a paste. It's also great on veg, sandwiches, all kinds of stuff.
What do you put in your curries? Raw or steamed veggies and maybe legumes? Would love to try making curries that way instead of overcooking all the nutrients out of it
The whole is almost always greater than the sum of its parts; which shows in the research Dr. Greger mentioned, as the garlic based pills and oils never perform as well as even a very small amount of garlic.
@@botzer8817 for some health effect like blood thinning or slight immune system booster, the powder works, but not enough to "kill" an upper respiratory illness, as the Allicin released when the garlic is freshly crushed loses its potential beyond 1 hour of crushing it. (Dr. Weil had something on that decades ago, which is why I started using fresh crushed cloves when feeling a cold/bronchitis coming on, and it has consistently nipped those in the bud. Doesn't crush covid though, but helps keep it lighter/short.)
I can’t eat significant amount of raw garlic without suffering digestive disorder. But roasted is almost fine, and black is like a charm. You mention allicin one of the reported active ingredient, but what about the others? After 1 month of homemade black garlic my long ascaris and pinworm disorder have completely vanished! Before I failed with my raw / raosted garlic cures… because of the inconvenience. Do we have sudy on black garlic? On other active component content it different garlic forms?
I heard of a study that when garlic is stir-fried in oil, the allicin disappears, but a more potent compound, ajoene, is produced instead. Is there any significance to that?
🇨🇦 nothing new in the statement but if you already have a cold eating, a good chunk of garlic will instantly drive the mucus out of your head and nose. I follow that with nose flushing. No expensive equipment I just run a water over my sink get enough in my cup palm and snort it up one open nostril trying to press it out the other nostril. They continue this for a period of time until I’m completely disgusted, and then scrub everything down.. yuck🇨🇦
Eat cooked garlic instead, if you're OK eating it cooked. It's one of those ingredients that nicely supplements so many recipes from a flavour point of view. As Dr Greger says, don't worry too much about eating stuff in the most nutritious form. Focus on eating it in ways you find most palatable.
@@lint8391 thank you. I definitely eat it cooked, I just am always obsessed with trying to get everything in its most potent and nutritious form and I don't like to lose out on any of its medicinal properties because I have altered it by cooking it
I've never eaten large amounts of raw garlic (at most a few cloves per day, sliced thinly on bread) so the only thing I can suggest is the same as for any other food: Ease your body into it, ie. start with very small amounts. If that doesn't work, try it in another form (eg. cooked), or just don't worry about it at all. No one plant is necessary for a long and healthy life, even if some do have unique health benefits.
What about ajoene from garlic that is macerated in oil? Many universities and drug companies are testing it as a cure for cancer. I tried to buy ajoene online but the many sources would only sell to researchers.

I love Dr. Greger.
There's a lot to love about him when he puts out videos like this and produces his How Not To books.
Me too! If you don't already, make sure that you support him financially every year to help him continue to do his work as he is a non-profit

I'll add extra garlic to my homemade oil-free hummus and baba ganoush.

Do you eat it with parsley or something?

Amazing!
Gotta eat more raw garlic forsure!!!
i watched the original just yesterday and now it got re-uploaded xD
Thank you!
Thank you for this! I was just about to order expensive fermented garlic
Fascinating! Thank you so much
Thank you.
Thank you❤
I wonder garlic powder has how much of the good stuff compared to the fresh garlic
Did you ever see his video about eating a quarter teaspoon of garlic powder per day
The whole is almost always greater than the sum of its parts; which shows in the research Dr. Greger mentioned, as the garlic based pills and oils never perform as well as even a very small amount of garlic.
@@MylinfideleBecause pills cannot reproduce it in quantity. But what about the same quantity in dried garlic.

(Dr. Weil had something on that decades ago, which is why I started using fresh crushed cloves when feeling a cold/bronchitis coming on, and it has consistently nipped those in the bud. Doesn't crush covid though, but helps keep it lighter/short.)
I routinely go through 4-5 tbsp of garlic powder per day or 4-5 bulbs (8-10 cloves per bulb) per week.
I'd like to see an analysis of OSC's after stirring raw garlic into hot food such as beans. It lowers the bite and chance of acid reflux.
Doctor please do some research on sea buckthorn berries. Ive heard it got more antioxidants than amla(indian gooseberry)
thanks for the info
I am the garlic king ...in Trinidad..... organic garlic is the best .... thank you Dr G..... Trinidad loves you Dr

What could happen if I eat daily 90 g of garlic? I crave garlic and onion daily.
It would make you healthier! Eat up and enjoy! Just lay off 7 days before surgery
Just in-time for Halloween...... obviously also keeps the Vampires Away 🦇🦇🦇
Garlic lowers my blood pressure and makes me dizzy 😢 what can I do?
Had to give up garlic due to crazy acid reflux
I would suggest using "stomach" instead of "tummy". Its more professional.
