Garlic (Allium sativum) and human health: A comprehensive review of pharmacological and therapeutic properties
Authors
Dr. Manish Sharma
Abstract
Garlic (Allium
sativum) shows broad pharmacological activity—antimicrobial, cardioprotective,
anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, metabolic and immunomodulatory
mediated mainly by organosulfur compounds (allicin, DADS, DATS, ajoene,
S-allylcysteine). This updated review emphasizes mechanistic understanding and
integrates recent clinical and preclinical literature from 2020–2025. While
evidence supports clinical benefits especially for cardiovascular risk factors
and immunomodulation heterogeneity in preparations and dosing remains a barrier
to routine therapeutic recommendations. Key recent meta-analyses and
mechanistic studies are highlighted.
