The influence of polysulphide-enhanced garlic intake on gasotransmitters profiles and selected physiological responses to high-intensity constant load exercise / Muhammad Alif Nazrin Jumat
A new study has shown that moderately boiled garlic can enhance polysulphides, a known potent donor of essential gasotransmitters (hydrogen sulphide, H2S and nitric oxide, NO) in humans. However, the dose response relationship of polysulphide-enhanced garlic (PEG) on exhaled gasotransmitter profiles...

A new study has shown that moderately boiled garlic can enhance polysulphides, a known potent donor of essential gasotransmitters (hydrogen sulphide, H2S and nitric oxide, NO) in humans. However, the dose response relationship of polysulphide-enhanced garlic (PEG) on exhaled gasotransmitter profiles as well as the physiological responses to high-intensity constant load exercise tolerance have yet to be investigated. In a randomised, double-blinded, placebo–controlled crossover design trial, 12 healthy men ingested 2 g, 4 g and 6 g of PEG or placebo (PLA) to establish the effects of PEG on eH2S, FeNO and MAP over a 24-hour period.

Compared to PLA, eH2S was significantly elevated during two of the highest dosages of PEG, with no additional increase after 6 g PEG ingestion compared to 4 g (both p < 0.001), however no changes in FeNO (p > 0.05).
