Study: Crush Garlic Before Cooking To Get Health Benefits
Mendoza, Argentina - A study conducted by Argentinean researchers suggests that crushing garlic before cooking is beneficial for health.
Lead researcher Claudio Galmarini from the Institute of Nutrition and Technology of Foods in Argentina says crushing garlic releases an enzyme, alliinase, that catalyzes the formation of allicin, which then breaks down to form a variety of healthful organosulfur compounds.
