Black garlic: Learn about its properties and benefits

What is black garlic?

The first thing you need to know about black garlic is where it comes from and the process to get it. The fresh garlic undergoes a maturation process. The garlic is subjected to a specific temperature and humidity in a fermentation oven for a period of 60 days. It should be noted that no additives are added during this process, so the product obtained is totally organic and natural.

Thus, through this transformation of garlic, its properties are multiplied tenfold, in addition to acquiring the texture, flavour and, above all, the colour that identifies it. The flavour of black garlic is mild, with tones between liquorice and prune, so it does not leave bad breath or repeat itself.
Black garlic is an all-natural superfood that strengthens our defences and boosts our immune system.

But what are the properties of black garlic?

The benefits of black garlic are many. There are 20 amino acids in nature and this food contains 18 of them, of which 8 are essential for our daily diet. It is also a good fighter against anxiety, cholesterol and lipids and helps to cleanse the blood due to its high zinc and s-allyl-l-cysteine content.

In addition to its anti-bacterial and antiseptic properties, it contains 5 times more allicin than regular garlic, so it has anti-diabetic, anti-trambolic and artery-cleansing benefits.
