garlic oil → is least active → against yeast strains

“The log CFUs of both Bacteroides (GF A 6.96, GF B 7.15) and Bifidobacteria (GF A 7.74, GF B 7.74) grown in the GF cultures at 24 h were significantly higher than those at 0 h (Bacteroides 4.93, Bifidobacteria 4.78) (P < 0.05).”

garlic fructan A (DP 16) → stimulates growth of → Bacteroides
