    Product Description

    Diallyl disulfide (DADS) is an organosulfur compound derived from allicin, a natural compound found in garlic and related plants. DADS has diverse physiological effects, many that are cardio- and neuro-protective.1,2,3 These effects are due, at least in part because DADS is converted, in the presence of thiols, to the gaseous mediator hydrogen sulfide (H2S).1 Thus, DADS serves as a thiol-dependent H2S donor in biological systems.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
