Garlic “Black”

Description

Black Garlic Discussion:

Black garlic is an herb that tends to spark curiosity. It seems to call out to us when we hear about it, as most people have never even heard of it. Black garlic is actually the common, medicinal garlic that we use for detoxing and cooking. Common garlic is put through a fermentation process, which involves increasing the heat and humidity overtime. As it ages, its color turns to black and the cloves become gummy.

The benefit picture would be similar to white garlic. To read more about the medicinal benefits of white garlic, Click Here!

As it ferments, it actually loses its pungent, offensive odor. Physicochemical processes take place that alter the allicin content. Therefore, those that want to saturate their body in garlic compounds may want to try this variation instead. No one wants to go around smelling like a clove of garlic.

We use the entire, intact bulb, meaning the papery outer husk, the cloves, and the basal plate. Consuming garlic may require caution, especially if you are taking platelet or anticoagulant medications. The warning is because garlic may potentiate them, making them stronger. If you are taking this type of medication, consult with your practitioner beforehand to consult with medication adjustments.

As far as the medicinal benefits of black garlic, a book could be written. We would suggest black garlic over the regular variation, due to the fermentation attributes. The constituents, enzymatic activity, and bioavailability would be enhanced during this aging process. The conversion of the allicin compounds is something to consider. Just because it is in lower amounts doesn’t mean it is less potent! The allicin becomes powerful antioxidants, flavonoids, and alkaloids, all products of black garlic ferments.

It is said that when test subjects were given only a few grams daily of black garlic, there was an increase in healthy cholesterol levels. Garlic has always been known as a potent herb but in its fermented state, it may surpass the rest!

Product Variations:

We offer every herb in multiple variations. For example, you can get it as a standard tincture, oxygenated tincture, glycerite, herbal tea, encapsulated, or as a loose powder. We highly recommend getting at least two variations of the preferred blend, to achieve saturation.

Standard Tincture – Herbal compounds extracted in an alcohol base. Alcohol offers a superior absorption rate. We recommend allowing your dose to sit under the tongue for 3+ minutes, then swallowing it down with a drink of water. Otherwise, you may add it to 4 oz. of water, juice, or a smoothie. Microscopic compounds are readily available to be absorbed through tissues, into the bloodstream, and then circulated to organs.

Herbosomal/Lipospheric Tincture – This is the standard tincture, put through an energetic process. We collide the herbal compounds with oxygen and essential oil molecules, entrapping them within an oxygenated bubble. The process can be seen because the tincture lightens in color. The lipospheres’ may have the capability to surpass the bioavailability of a standard tincture, although it exhibits all of the same benefits.

Glycerite – Herbal compounds extracted in vegetable glycerin. This contains NO alcohol and NO sugar. The taste of glycerin resembles syrup, which makes it ideal for children. This version may be best for those highly sensitive or are seeking a nonalcoholic extraction. Doses may need to be up to three times higher than a tincture to receive similar benefits. They can be taken in the same way as tinctures, which is in 4 oz. of water, juice, or a smoothie.

Herbal Tea – Tea bags are handmade to order and can be brewed up to three times each. The constituents will be continually extracted with each brew. Be sure to squeeze the bag gently upon finishing your cup of lovely tea. The label specifies the brewing instructions, which highly depends on the parts of the plant that are used in the tea. Keep in mind, this is medicinal tea and there are no additives. It may be best to drink as is, without adding a sugar substitute. Don’t forget the slurry, medicinal residue that settles to the bottom of the cup!

Cut & Sifted Herb – With the gummy cloves inside of the garlic bulbs, we do not dry nor powder black garlic down. Therefore, we have whole, intact black garlic bulbs, including the outer husk and the inner basal plate. They are broken down into small pieces for you. I believe every part of the plant has something to offer, including the husks. The husk will also help to preserve and keep your garlic fresh. You can open them as needed.

Topical Ointment – An oil-based salve infused with Black Garlic, and it is scented with our Galbanum essential oil.

Infused Oil – We delicately infuse sunflower oil with every part of the intact bulb! It is an amazing, infused oil to use! It is scented with our Galbanum essential oil.

Organic Soap – We offer infused, organic soap in 8 oz. portions. This is two 4 oz. bars. It is scented with our Galbanum essential oil.
