Guest guest Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 >>What happens, or doesn’t happen to allicin, when garlic is heated: Garlic heated to 121C was found to strongly inhibit the growth of yeasts, but not that of bacteria. The potency and stability of the antiyeast activity of heated garlic were compared with those of fresh garlic, garlic oil, and allyl isothiocyanate. The inhibitory activity of heated garlic was stable, and the minimum inhibitory concentration did not change for up to 30 d at 37C. The antiyeast activity of heated garlic was not influenced by pH. Alliin heated in distilled water showed an antiyeast activity pattern similar to that of heated garlic, suggesting that the compound(s) thermally generated from alliin are the principal antiyeast compound (s) of heated garlic. The antiyeast activity was increased as time of heating increased up to 45 min at 121C, and the activity did not change when garlic was further heated for up to 120 min.” ... emphasis added... bottom of page, http://www.ericsons.net/167/stinking-rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 11, 2005 Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 Interesting! Thanks, Mati. Unfortunately, I don't actually know what I'm fighting off. I'm assuming candida is involved, but there's probably more than one thing going on and not necessarily even in the same kingdom.
