Black garlic –  a SUPERFOOD that is full of health benefits.
Black garlic is a mysterious ingredient in the cuisine, originating from the Asian tradition, which is becoming more and more popular due to its health properties and extraordinary taste. Unlike fresh, normal garlic, black garlic does not have this characteristic, spicy taste and aroma, which is due to its lower allicin content. The production process gives it a unique, dark color, a delicate, sweet taste and changes its consistency to a more gelatinous one.

The garlic fermentation process, or an extraordinary transformation
The secret to obtaining black garlic is to ferment common garlic. Under the influence of appropriate conditions - humidity (80-90%) and temperature (60-90 degrees C), the proteins and sugars contained in garlic cloves are transformed. After a few weeks, the cloves take on an intense black color and develop extraordinary taste and health benefits.

Source of anti-oxidants
Black garlic is an extremely rich source of antioxidants. During the fermentation process, the content of antioxidant compounds increases significantly. Antioxidants are crucial for fighting free radicals, which contribute to the aging process of the body and the development of diseases. Scientific research confirms that fermented garlic protects us against liver, colon and breast cancer, and black garlic extract inhibits the development of cancer cells.

Support for the immune system
Another advantage of black garlic is its ability to support the immune system. It contains natural compounds that help regulating the body's immune response. Therefore, a regular consumption of black garlic may help to increase resistance to infections and seasonal diseases, as well as reduce susceptibility to allergies.

Benefits for the heart and circulatory system
Scientific research suggests that eating black garlic may help lower bad cholesterol (LDL) levels in the blood, which, as a consequence, reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. Moreover, its anti-inflammatory effect has a beneficial effect on the condition of blood vessels.

Fighting obesity
People who are struggling with obesity can also find some aid in black garlic. Studies have shown that it reduces the level of triglycerides and the diameter of fat cells, contributing to weight loss.

Use of black garlic in the cuisine
Not only because of its health-promoting properties, black garlic is gaining popularity as a tasty addition to various dishes. Its delicate, sweetish flavor is an interesting contrast to traditional garlic. It goes perfectly with meat, giving it a deep aroma and unique taste.

Black garlic is one of the latest discoveries in the field of superfoods and healthy meals. It is not only a tasty addition to dishes, but also a rich source of valuable health-promoting properties, which make it worth introducing it into your daily diet. It is also an attractive alternative for people who would like to use the health properties of fresh, ordinary garlic, but cannot tolerate its taste and smell.
