You are not a vampire. You should not be afraid of garlic. In fact, it's good if you, the adam, consume lots of garlic. You see, garlic is called able to make men more attractive.
The conclusion was obtained from a study conducted by a group of psychologists in Scotland and the Czech Republic. By eating garlic, men will be more attractive because the body odor is considered more attractive for women.
Indeed, basically, garlic is known as a plant that produces odor. The reason is, garlic contains sulfate compounds in it.
However, research conducted by scientists at Charles University, Prague, Czech break the above assumption. The study proves that male body odor produced by garlic feels more interesting.
Launched Psuchology Today on Wednesday (24/1/2018), Jitka Fiatlova divided a number of men in two groups. The first group was asked to eat a cheese sandwich with a content of 6 grams (equivalent of two cloves) of crushed garlic. While the second group was asked to eat a plain cheese sandwich. They were also asked to avoid heavy exercise and smoking.
After the next 12 hours, the men were asked to stick the cotton in their armpits to collect the sweat produced by the consumption of garlic.
Furthermore, Fialova asked a number of women to take a cotton-sniffing test that has been plastered with men's sweat. Unfortunately, in the first experiment, no significant results were obtained.
Then, Fialova doubled the dose of garlic. Men in the first group were asked to consume 1,000 milligram garlic capsules (equivalent to 12 grams), while the rest took a placebo capsule.
The result, the smell of men who eat high-dose garlic just more fun and liked by women by taking a sniff test.
"Consumption of garlic can affect odor when indirectly through antioxidant properties," said Fialova.
Fialova suspect if the ability of garlic to increase the enjoyment of body odor due to antibacterial properties of these plants. As we know, the sweat in the armpit is caused by bacteria on the skin surface. Garlic is able to destroy the bacteria, and thus reduce the intensity of the smell of sweat.
