Garlic and DOMS
Recent research has looked at the action of allicin, the sulphur based compound in garlic on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) and muscle recovery. More specifically the study looked at blood lactate, muscle breakdown markers, perceived muscle soreness and antioxidant levels after a downhill treadmill run. The group that took the allicin supplement had significantly lower levels of the muscle damage markers, significantly lower perceived muscle soreness and much higher antioxidant levels than the placebo group.
