Scientists have found that sprouted garlic is more nutrient-rich than fresh garlic, offering higher levels of fiber and vitamin C. It also contains phytochemicals that block cancer cell growth and reduce carcinogens in the body, making it a natural cancer-fighting food.
Dr. Mercola’s studies show sprouted garlic offers several health benefits, including stabilizing blood pressure and cholesterol, reducing heart disease risk, preventing osteoarthritis, and fighting 14 types of cancer. It also combats harmful bacteria due to its natural defense mechanisms, with extracts from five-day-old sprouted garlic showing the strongest antioxidant properties.
