00:00:03.001 --> 00:00:06.831 
A cooking ingredient that helps control
blood sugar, organic sulfur compounds in 

00:00:06.831 --> 00:00:10.341 
garlic such as allicin have the effect
of improving insulin sensitivity. 

00:00:11.141 --> 00:00:14.381 
This compound is released when garlic
is crushed or chopped. 

00:00:15.081 --> 00:00:18.441 
Therefore, garlic has the ability to
stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin. 

00:00:19.201 --> 00:00:23.813 
The alanine propyl disulfide in garlic
has an insulin-like effect, reducing the 

00:00:23.813 --> 00:00:28.041 
breakdown of insulin and prolonging its
effects in controlling blood sugar. 

00:00:28.041 --> 00:00:31.744 
Garlic has the ability to stimulate
insulin production and inhibit liver 

00:00:31.744 --> 00:00:34.101 
enzymes involved in converting glycogen into glucose. 

00:00:34.781 --> 00:00:39.166 
In type 2 diabetics, garlic increases
the sensitivity of muscle and 

00:00:39.166 --> 00:00:40.761 
tissue cells to insulin. 

00:00:41.561 --> 00:00:45.103 
This helps the body absorb glucose from
the blood more easily, reducing the risk 

00:00:45.103 --> 00:00:46.621 
of increased blood sugar after eating. 

00:00:47.001 --> 00:00:50.943 
Antioxidant compounds in garlic such as
S-alpha cysteine ​​selenium help protect 

00:00:50.943 --> 00:00:55.961 
beta cells in the pancreas from damage,
helping to control blood sugar more effectively. 

00:00:55.961 --> 00:00:59.741 
You can use 1 to 2 cloves of garlic a
day to get the best results.
