In a fascinating study, we explored how garlic can influence anxiety and depressive behaviors in rats suffering from diabetes. Specifically, the research involved fifty-six male Wistar rats that were divided into several groups. Some received a garlic treatment, while others were given saline or standard anxiety medications known as imipramine and diazepam.
Over a span of 10 days, the rats were treated with varying doses of garlic homogenate. At the end of the trial, we examined the rats' anxiety through established tests—the elevated plus maze (EPM) and the forced swimming test (FST). The findings were promising; the group that received the highest garlic dosage showed significantly lower signs of anxiety compared to the untreated diabetic rats.
Additionally, garlic reduced oxidative stress in the brain, marked by decreased malondialdehyde levels and increased important antioxidants. This suggests that garlic may help mitigate anxiety by addressing oxidative stress, offering an interesting perspective on its potential as a complementary treatment for such conditions.

I’m not incentivised to praise NOW products, but they genuinely work. In my 20s, I’ve dealt with health issues mainly due to stress and anxiety. Alongside exercise and these supplements, my health has greatly improved. I’ve seen a reduction in my health problem by 10+ points and feel stronger overall. My wife and I rarely fall ill, and these have been a game-changer for us. I previously used these at the gym and noticed a significant difference.
