HEALTHY PREGNANCY and GARLIC

GARLIC’s antibacterial and antifungal characteristics make it an ideal nutrient to consume, particularly during pregnancy. GARLIC will enhance the mothers’ immune system which in turn will enhance her odds of having a healthy pregnancy and most importantly a healthy baby. In our research, in this matter, we found a study that was conducted with GARLIC tablets. This was very reassuring because when GARLIC is used in it’s natural state the benefits far exceed any tablets produced today.

New research shows that taking garlic during pregnancy can cut the risk of pre-eclampsia (raised blood pressure and protein retained in the urine). Studies reveal that garlic may help to boost the birth-weight of babies destined to be too small. The research was carried out by Dr D Sooranna, Ms J Hirani and Dr I Das in the Academic Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology at the Chelsea & Westminster Hospital in London UK. 

They concluded that although pre-eclampsia and growth retardation are complex multifactorial conditions, taking standardized garlic tablets (for further details please contact us) throughout pregnancy may decrease the chances of these types of complications at birth. They focussed on growth retarded babies and pre-eclampsia, a potentially dangerous condition for mother and baby which occurs in about one in ten pregnancies. 

Experiments by the research team showed that adding extracts of garlic to cells from the placenta of women likely to suffer from these conditions was able to quickly stimulate growth. Furthermore, the activity of key enzymes that are reduced in the abnormal pregnancies was significantly increased when garlic was added.
