Product Details

One of the most popular herbal preparations and seasonings of all times, garlic with its intense odor, has a strong reputation that precedes it. Garlic has been used all over the world to flavor foods, ward off evil spirits, as an offering to ancient deities, as well as for its healthful properties.

A member of the Liliaceae family, Allium sativum is an herbaceous perennial with long, grayish-green, spear-shaped leaves. The flower stalks which support whimsical, globular clusters of small white flowers are very similar to other members of the Allium genus such as onion and chive. The genus name, Allium, is Latin for garlic and the species name, sativum, refers to the fact that garlic is highly cultivated. Garlic is thought to have been cultivated for at least 5,000 years, originating in the Middle East. It has been grown for so long that it is difficult for scientists to determine the plant’s exact origin.

A popular food spice, garlic clove is also employed in global healing traditions for its wellness supporting properties. Garlic has been used extensively in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ayurveda, and folk herbalism for thousands of years. Its virtues were praised in ancient Greece and Rome. In Ayurveda, garlic is referred to as 'rasoon' or 'lasunam' and is considered to be energetically hot, drying, and pungent, helping to bring balance to vata and kapha doshas. In TCM, garlic is called 'da-suan' and is used to support the digestive system. Garlic helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels that are within normal range.*

Made with fresh organic cloves, our garlic tincture is pungent and heating. This liquid extract is typically taken in water or juice, although it also has a place in many polyherbal formulations. Garlic extract blends well with ginkgo extract, prickly ash extract, and more.
