According to sources from Shan garlic market, medicinal single-clove garlic from Taunggyi, Shan state, is being supplied to all over Myanmar.

With popularity and large consumption, the price of medicinal garlic has been good since August.

“This garlic is medicinal, it’s popular, and the price is a little bit high. It’s a single-clove garlic. Some intentionally search and buy it. We deliver it to many towns including Pyay, Yangon and Nay Pyi Taw. People from Tachilek also buy it,” said a garlic wholesaler and retailer in Taunggyi township.

The price of this medicinal single-clove garlic was low at the harvest time and the more it gets dried, the better the price, he added.

“The price has improved a little since last month. Not very high. The price of one clove garlic is the same as the price of the big twins,” he said.

Allicin contained in garlic can reduce bad cholesterol in blood and it is good for heart. Chances of blood clotting can be decreased by regular consumption of garlic. In addition, garlic is good for patients with hypertension as it can lower blood pressure.
