A nickel will get you on the subway, but garlic will get you a seat. (Old New York proverb) Aggressive multi-resistant infections constitute an increasing health problem all over the world. Bacteria are developing resistance at an alarming pace, so new pharmaceuticals that can combat this threat are in great demand. Garlic, which is known for its role in counteracting virulent bacteria, contains a substance that is particularly effective in encounters with even the hardiest bacterial strains. New research on the positive properties of the malodorous plant looks at its potent chemical compound ajoene, which neutralizes resistant bacteria by paralyzing their communication system.
