Allicin, a garlic component, is changed by heating. S-allylcysteine is a sulfur-containing compound that is very good for the body, and this component has an NK cell activating effect. It has the effect of improving the immunity of NK cells and eliminating the virus and cancer cells that have entered the body. S-allylcysteine has a strong antioxidant effect and inactivates active oxygen that causes aging and causes diseases. Anyway, the increase of excess active oxygen accelerates aging and prevents you from becoming susceptible to arteriosclerosis, diabetes, cancer, and other diseases.
