Top Medical Research Studies

We embarked on a study to investigate how garlic, alongside other natural substances, affects the growth of Blastocystis hominis in patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Our research included stool specimens from both IBS patients and healthy controls to compare their responses to metronidazole (MTZ) and dietary spices like garlic.

As we explored our findings, we discovered that garlic had a significant impact, especially at lower concentrations. Specifically, over half of the B. hominis samples from IBS patients didn’t grow when exposed to garlic at a concentration of 0.01 mg/ml. As we increased the concentration to 0.1 mg/ml, the results were similarly promising, with a notable decrease in cell counts indicating that garlic can effectively inhibit the growth of this parasite in IBS patients.

Although garlic showed effectiveness, it's worth mentioning that some patients showed different responses compared to the healthy controls. For instance, while garlic reduced the B. hominis cell count in IBS patients, the control group experienced no growth of the parasite at the same concentrations. This suggests that the IBS condition may affect how well the garlic works.

Overall, while garlic indicates potential benefits for those battling IBS and Blastocystis hominis, we should also consider further research to fully understand its effectiveness and the nuances of its action in different individuals.

We evaluated the effects of garlic in treating Blastocystis hominis, a common parasite found in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In our study, we examined fecal samples from patients, cultivating them to observe the growth of the parasite.

We applied different herbal extracts, including garlic, to see how they influenced the number of parasites present. After a period of 48 hours, we found that garlic significantly reduced the parasite count, with results showing a reduction rate of approximately 92.44% compared to the control group. This is promising news for those looking for alternative treatments alongside traditional methods.

However, it's worth noting that while garlic was effective, other herbs like onion and turmeric did not show significant benefits in reducing the parasite count. Overall, our findings suggest that garlic may be a beneficial addition to treatment options for IBS patients affected by Blastocystis hominis.

Improves digestion

Natural antibiotic and antiviral drug, I use it to enhance digestion and normalise bile flow due to my irritable bowel syndrome. It also aids intestinal function and revitalises blood vessels. This garlic oil in capsule form has numerous benefits. The convenient formula ensures the oil is absorbed in the intestinal tract, preventing any unpleasant odour in the mouth. It boosts immunity, and I highly recommend it.
