Garlic is a powerful natural remedy known for immune support, heart health, and anti-inflammatory properties, but most people don’t get the full benefits because of a common mistake.

The Common Mistake: Cooking Garlic Immediately After Crushing or Chopping

Many people chop or crush garlic and throw it straight into a hot pan.

Why it’s a problem: The beneficial compound allicin (responsible for garlic’s health benefits) forms only when garlic is chopped or crushed and left to rest for a few minutes before cooking.

High heat destroys most of the allicin, reducing its medicinal power.
