Allistatin (or Allistatine) is an antibiotic found naturally in plants of the Allium group, which includes garlic and onions.It is recognized as being a strong broad-spectrum fungicide and antibiotic against numerous serious microorganisms (bacteria, etc). The name "allistatin" refers to two very similar recognized compounds, allistatin I and II.
Studies have established that the most active factors in garlic, including allistatin I and allistatin II, are sulphur-containing compounds which are powerful agents against staphylococcus and Escherichia coli (E. coli), very common bacteria which can cause serious infections and, under certain conditions, can end up serious or even fatal. For this reason, Russia and other countries, use garlic routinely and extensively to treat numerous infections and diseases such as whooping cough, grippe (Flu) and a whole host of infectious diseases of viral and bacterial origin.[citation needed]
Apart from allistatin, garlic has dozens of other substances (including vitamins, minerals, etc), but allistatin I, II, alliin, allicin, garlicin and ajoine are the strongest antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, immune-enhancing and anti-platelet compounds found in large quantities in garlic.
