Believe it or not, garlic is the perfect weight loss product. It is well known that this product contributes to the prevention of diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. It significantly reduces the risk of heart attack and is even suitable for eliminating cancer cells, but is most often described as a miracle weight loss product. What makes it so special?
The mystery of its positive effect on the body lies in an active compound called allicin, a substance that is formed when the cells of garlic are destroyed and causes a strong odor. In the same way, this substance affects the fact that garlic has a powerful antibacterial effect.
Consuming it helps dissolve blood clots that can cause heart attacks and strokes. Even when cooked, this product helps maintain good blood cholesterol levels by freeing it from oxidation and avoids damage to blood vessels by preventing plaque build-up.
But it not only removes cholesterol, but increases the level of healthy fats in the body, which, combined with the removal of bad components for the body, makes you lose those extra pounds. Experts recommend using its beneficial properties every day. You can eat one clove a day - the equivalent of 3 g.
