Concentrated black garlic

Natur Tanya® Fermented Black Garlic provides a concentrated plant extract in capsule form. The ingredient is obtained from processed Allium sativum L. bulbs. The extract is standardised for S-allyl cysteine, declaring the quantity of a characteristic constituent alongside the total extract weight.

How white garlic becomes black

Black garlic production involves ageing under controlled temperature and humidity. During this process, garlic changes in colour, texture and chemical composition. Food technology research shows that processing temperature influences both browning intensity and sensory characteristics.

Ageing changes the composition

Studies involving garlic have observed a reduction in allicin during thermal processing, alongside changes in sugars, acids and phenolic components. This explains why black garlic differs from the fresh ingredient in several respects. The resulting composition depends on temperature and moisture conditions together, rather than ageing time alone.

The significance of S-allyl cysteine

S-allyl cysteine, abbreviated SAC, is a sulphur-containing constituent studied in black garlic. Research demonstrates that its concentration varies with processing conditions longer or more intensive heat treatment does not automatically produce a higher SAC content. Standardisation therefore adds useful compositional information beyond extract weight alone.

Colour and composition are different characteristics

A darker colour does not, by itself, establish the SAC content of a black garlic ingredient. Experiments have shown that browning and the quantities of different constituents can change in different ways. Measured composition therefore matters alongside appearance when characterising the ingredient.

Plant-based capsule shell

The extract is enclosed in an HPMC, or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, capsule shell. Lower-moisture HPMC capsules are also used in capsule technology for moisture-sensitive and hygroscopic ingredients. The choice of capsule material is therefore a technological consideration when developing a formula.

DIRECTION (1 serving = 1 capsule)

Swallow 1–2 capsules daily with plenty of water, preferably with a meal. The manufacturer recommends use for 60–120 days. Suitable from age 3.

STORAGE

Store in a cool, dry place. Keep out of children's reach.
