Garlic: A Promising Antidote To Heavy Metal Toxicity

26 posts in this topic

Garlic, for centuries, has been well known for its medicinal attributes in addition to its other virtues. Garlic in different forms has antioxidant properties.

These properties are shown to be due to the existence of compounds such as water-soluble organosulfur compounds, S-allyl cysteine, and lipid-soluble compounds like diallyl sulfide.

It shows phenomenal ameliorating properties against heavy metal poisoning due to its possession of chemicals containing organo-sulfur groups, volatile oils, enzymes, carbohydrates, and amino acids. With the threat of heavy metal poisoning increasing every day — and lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, and copper poisoning gradually attaining alarming proportions — garlic was extensively exploited to treat the metal-induced toxicities.

Recent supportive evidence indicates that garlic contains compounds capable of detoxifying lead, cadmium, methylmercury, phenylmercury, and arsenic. The restorative property of garlic was attributed to its antioxidant activity and/or chelating efficacy.

The clastogenic effects of the heavy metals were also pronouncedly reduced by the dietary administration of garlic. Fatal effects with respect to body metal burden, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial injury were effectively reduced by garlic.

The curative effect of garlic was superior to those of 2,3-di mercapto-1-propanol (BAL) and D-penicillamine(PEN), 2,3- dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA), and N-acetyl-DL-penicillamine (APEN), and the current remedies.

In his commentary, the research advances on the chemistry and pharmacology of garlic and the potential and molecular mechanism of garlic-mediated attenuation of heavy metal toxicity are discussed.

All the garlic studies we have are on allicin powders not on garlic cloves so we are talking hypotheticals here 

Would you recommend adding it to your food or taking some kind of garlic supplement then?

Interesting.

You can take a garlic supplement or allicin. It's also an immune system booster.

I ate a bar of dark chocolate (80 grams) every day for the past six months and oceanic Tuna fish regularly (4-5 times a week). Lately, I felt like something wasn't right with me — ADHD, heart weakness (stings/pricks around the heart), and confusion. So I did some research on garlic and found out that it is the most efficient, natural detoxifier on the planet. I crushed the raw garlic and allowed its substances to activate for about fifteen minutes. I also fasted. And now I'm at 100% — I feel amazing.

Don't underestimate the power of garlic.

Yeah, I have been taking like 3 - 10 cloves of garlic with honey once every few months or so when I feel like something is going wrong or when I am sick and it makes a big difference.

It also seems to reset tolerance to substances. Not completely, but noticeably.

Fun fact: 

"Koreans' love for garlic is proved by statistics. According to the Korean Rural Economic Institute(KREI), the average consumption of garlic per Korean was estimated as 7.4kg in 2019, which is a staggering amount considering the fact that Americans and Italians consume about 1kg on average per person a year."

I had to fight my gf to stop eating garlic because her breath smelled so bad. ???

How is this post just me acting out my ego in the usual ways? Is this post just me venting and justifying my selfishness? Are the things you are posting in alignment with principles of higher consciousness and higher stages of ego development? Are you acting in a mature or immature way? Are you being selfish or selfless in your communication? Are you acting like a monkey or like a God-like being?

There's also a powerful heavy metal detoxifier called IP6 Inositol Hexaphospate. The moment you take it, you start to have harsh but bearable side effects, which means that it works.

Read the studies about IP6 Inositol Hexaphospate.

This is the brand I recommend (not to advertise; I only want to help people).

Again: just read the studies about IP6 and you will be shocked.

The benefits of IP6 go beyond its capacity to detox heavy metals. It can fix your insulin resistance issue if you consume too much sugar and refined carbs. It is a miraculous supplement, and it's a natural one; your body produces it.

Just read the studies — all of them if possible.

And don't forget about your raw garlic daily intake; it is a mystical, almost supernatural natural product.

Take a look here, m8

Garlic (Allium sativum L., Liliaceae) was investigated for its potential to prevent the accumulation of lead or cadmium, major environmental pollutants, and to reduce their toxic effects in rats.

The oral feeding of minced fresh garlic during intraperitoneal injection of lead acetate or cadmium chloride, daily for 6 weeks significantly decreased the accumulation of these toxic metals and prevented the metal-sensitive biochemical alterations in blood, liver, and kidney.

The ability of garlic to provide glutathione, biosynthesize metallothionein or similar protein, and its antioxidant properties appear to protect against potential oxidative damage to tissues by lead or cadmium.

The regular intake of garlic may be beneficial in reducing the toxic effects of these heavy metals in the exposed population.

We certainly have to appreciate the limitations of the rodent research. While it is definitely interesting, it would be a long stretch saying, garlic detoxifies heavy metals in humans. I'd still eat it tho because its awesome 

Indeed. But I talk from experience; only after a few days of garlic intake, I felt better. A lot better.

@eTorro Yeaa so no miracle but triggers anti oxidant glutathione production by the body like 10000 other things

 

Im yet to find a plant compound that does something else than trigger Glutathione.

You can trigger glutathione in a gazillion ways,

 

Still garlic rocks

 

but

 

then

 

korean monks dont use it as it disturbs the chi

I meditate on a daily basis and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that garlic doesn't disturb your attention/focus/concentration. It is a matter of you getting used to the raw compounds of garlic.

I don't follow Buddhism anymore. Life is not only about meditation and clarity of mind, although these things are fundamental to lasting growth.

It is fair to say that life is also about skills like articulating understanding, comprehension, understanding people, and so forth. Basically, life is about everything we can master as human beings.

Just because a Buddhist monk behaves a certain way, that doesn't mean that we should embrace his worldview or his lifestyle.

@eTorro Sure Im just sharing knowledge. I eat garlic. 
They also dont eat onions
I eat onions

Maybe thats why my energy is so multidirectional pew pew 


Monks are respectable however, worth more because they actually practice. Typing in a forum or watching youtube videos and sitting at home on a cushion is a mere poor replica of a ancient lifestyle.

SHooting 5meo up your anus canal in a bath tub in las vegas is not what I would assume modern spirituality is. 

Even if it "gets you there" quickest.

Well maybe its about enjoying the journey not skipping to the end?


So eat your garlic guys and girls and eat pussy too. 


Amen.

I eat three cloves of garlic in the morning and three cloves of garlic before bed. That makes six cloves of garlic in total, a day.

I also take two pills of IP6 Inositol Hexaphosphate — one in the morning and one before bed.

Let's not forget that IP6 is the most potent detoxifier of heavy metals after garlic.
