Garlic has been utilized since ancient times for both culinary and medicinal purposes. Recent research has identified selenium compounds in garlic, including γ-Glutamyl-Se-methylselenocysteine (GGMSC), leading to the hypothesis that GGMSC acts as a carrier for Se-methylselenocysteine (MSC). Experiments conducted on animals by researchers indicate that the effects of GGMSC in garlic and MSC on cancer cells in experimental models are equivalent. This finding suggests that garlic is a potential chemotherapeutic agent to enhance cancer treatment.
