IS GARLIC TOXIC TO DOGS?
Is Garlic???? dangerous for dogs????? Smashing myths with science!! with Dr. Karen Becker & Rodney HabibFree downloadable Toxic Food Myths
In 2000, Dr Oasmu Yamato tested a garlic oil extract on Beagles and determined that there were microscopic changes in red blood cells with the dose they used. Turs out that their formulation was the equivalent of 274 WHOLE CLOVES in one week give to each of their test subjects. Due to the uproar from the pet food industry, and the subsequent fallout, Dr Yamato re-conducted the experiment with a more reasonable dose as guided by veterinarians and nutritionists worldwide, and found that there was NO BIOLOGICAL EFFECT on dogs. His corrected study is found here:
Safety and efficacy of aged garlic extract in dogs
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30497454/
Conclusion: The long-term oral administration of AGE at a dose of 90 mg/kg/day for 12 weeks did not show any adverse effects in dogs. Furthermore, the administration of AGE upregulated the gene expressions of canine Nrf2 and Nrf2-regulated phase II antioxidant enzymes. These results suggest that AGE might safely contribute to the health of dogs provided that the appropriate dosage is used.
