Powerful garlic stronger than medicines
For hundreds of years, garlic has been known for its unique values in the treatment of various diseases, from the common cold and ending with complex inflammation.
Recent studies have shown, however, that garlic has such strong medicinal values that it is more and more often recommended in serious heart conditions or cancer.
Its key values are determined by two key compounds that translate into its strong healing properties – a sulfur-rich amino acid called allicin and an enzyme called protein-based allyase.
Allicin is a very delicate compound that is able to survive only a few hours. Its properties are similar to a strong natural antibiotic, which also has antifungal and antiviral properties.

Po latach na skutek różnych doświadczeń biznesowych i obserwacji innych ludzi stwierdziłem że ja mam pomysł na to, jak to zrobić po swojemu. To był moment w którym podjąłem decyzje o zawodowym podejściu do tego tematu.
A po drodze były oczywiście sytuacje , że gdzieś tam mnie znajomi polecali na zasadzie „mam takiego kumpla” i jak ktoś chciał wejść na jakąś górę to dzwonili do mnie i pytali się czy nie mógłbym gdzieś z nimi w góry pojechać.
Góry w moim życiu zmieniły wszystko …
