When you crush or chop garlic (or any allium vegetable), you release allicin—a powerful plant compound packed with health benefits. Here’s why you’ll want more of it in your plant-based life:
1️⃣ Crush or chop garlic 2️⃣ Let it rest for 10 mins before cooking 3️⃣ Allicin is fat soluble, so consume with fatty foods such as nuts, seeds and avocado
👉 Garlic isn’t just flavor—it’s functional nutrition.
