Ground garlic, Sattva Foods, 100g

The high nutritional and medicinal properties of garlic are due to its extremely rich chemical composition. It contains much less water (60-64%) than other vegetables, more carbohydrates (more than 20%) and more nitrogen (about 7%) than onions. The fiber content is 0.7%. Garlic bulbs contain 35-42% dry matter, which is associated with a large amount of inulin (20-27%), which, when exposed to stomach acids, is converted into a valuable sugar for the human body - fructose. Bulbs also contain 6-8% crude protein, 0.5% reducing sugars and about 5% fat. They contain amino acids that are especially valuable to humans: lysine. Garlic contains flavonoids - substances that release vasospasm, lower blood pressure and help remove cholesterol from the body. Polysaccharides - fructosans that accumulate in bulbs - have a high nutritional value. In addition, garlic contains pentosans, glycosides, pectin substances, organic acids, phytosterols.

The ash contains 17 chemical elements, including potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, manganese, copper, sulfur, nickel, chlorine, titanium, selenium, sodium, lead, boron.
