SUPER FOOd: BLACK GARLIC
Although not as famous as white garlic, black
garlic is slowly taking over the market, especially
as an alternative natural herbal medicine.

Introduced into the market from Korea, this
type of garlic is mainly prepared through a
“fermentation” process lasting at least one month.

The process is done under controlled humidity
and heat, with the end product being black-
colored garlic. Herbalists and natural medicine
practitioners praise this superfood (invented less
than five years ago) as one of the new additions to
herbal medicine.
