Allicin is a bioactive sulfur-containing compound formed when fresh garlic (Allium sativum) is crushed or chopped. It contributes to garlic’s characteristic odor and many of its proposed health effects.

What are the potential benefits of allicin?

Allicin is linked to cardiovascular support, antimicrobial activity, and anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Evidence varies by outcome and product, and clinical relevance is still being studied.

What is a typical allicin dosage?

Supplement doses are often standardized to provide a specific amount of allicin, commonly in the range of about 2–12 mg per day. Product formulations differ, so follow label directions and consider medical advice for personal dosing.

Why do allicin supplements vary in effectiveness?

Allicin is relatively unstable and can break down during processing, storage, or digestion. Different formulations may affect how much active allicin is actually delivered.

Is allicin safe and are there interactions?

Allicin from garlic or supplements is generally well tolerated but may cause gastrointestinal upset in some people. It can interact with medicines that affect bleeding risk, so check with a clinician if you use anticoagulants or have surgery planned.
