Top Medical Research Studies

We explored the effectiveness of garlic extracts against pneumonia-causing bacteria in a recent study. Researchers collected pus samples from patients at a referral hospital in Karnataka. Using sterile methods, we isolated the bacteria involved in pneumonia and other infections.

Garlic has a long history of use in traditional medicine, celebrated for its potential health benefits, including antimicrobial properties. In our experiments, we prepared garlic extracts and tested them against the isolated clinical bacteria.

The results were promising, revealing that garlic formed larger clear zones around the bacterial colonies compared to conventional antibiotics. This suggests that garlic might have notable antibacterial properties worth considering. It opens up exciting possibilities for further research into garlic as a natural treatment option against pneumonia.

I was searching for a garlic supplement rich in alicin, which is crucial for me when selecting garlic. You can't go wrong with the NOW brand! I also provide this supplement for my dog (apply with caution, as all dogs are different). My dog had pneumonia a few years back, and now at 12 years old, she occasionally has a phlegmy cough. I administer this supplement, and her cough disappears within 24 hours! I highly recommend it.
