What is the Recommended Daily Intake of Garlic?

0

There is no set Recommended Daily Allowance of garlic. As with any herb or supplement, too much may not be beneficial and garlic is no exception. Eating too much garlic can irritate the digestive tract. An amount that is both beneficial and safe for those who enjoy fresh garlic is eating 1 to 2 cloves daily. To avoid dreaded garlic breath, you may want to choose your garlic in capsule form. If you prefer garlic capsules, the commonly suggested amount is 600 to 900 mg (providing about 5,000-6,000 mcg of allicin) divided into 2 or 3 equal amounts. When using aged garlic extracts, a suggested supplement is 3 to 7 grams daily.
