Set realistic expectations
Allicin breaks down in vitro to form a variety of fat-soluble organosulfur compounds ( Figure 2 ), including diallyl trisulfide (DATS), diallyl disulfide (DADS), and diallyl sulfide (DAS), or in the presence of oil or organic solvents, ajoene and vinyldithiins (6)
These include receptor signaling studies, neuroendocrine assays, and sleep architecture experiments using EEG monitoring
It also signals underlying triggers hormonal imbalance, chronic inflammation, or sun damage that are worth addressing holistically, not just topically
This leads to a slowdown in cell renewal and compromises our skin's natural defence mechanisms
