The short answer
Add prebiotic fructans, vitamin K, folate, and allium flavor.
- Evidence and scope
- Food context; study findings do not grade the whole food.
- Important limitation
- The strongest evidence applies to varied vegetable intake; direct trials of this vegetable usually measure nutrients or intermediate markers.
- Before deciding
- Benefits depend on the edible form and preparation. Added sugar, sodium, refined flour, or deep-frying can change the nutritional profile.
01 / NUTRIENTS & FORM
Nutrient snapshot
The exact food form matters. Raw, cooked, drained, dried, fortified, and branded versions can have meaningfully different values.
Add prebiotic fructans, vitamin K, folate, and allium flavor.
We have not assigned a specific composition record to this food yet. Values will appear only after the food description, preparation state, edible portion, and serving weight are verified.
How nutrient values will be verified
- Planned display basis
- Practical serving and per 100 g
- Planned nutrient fields
- Energy, protein, carbohydrate, fiber, fat, sodium, and the most relevant micronutrients
- Publication rule
- Show the database, record ID, food form, serving weight, and verification date

Evidence map: baseline and emerging signals
The current baseline stays visually separate from credible findings that are mechanistic, responder-dependent, small, or not yet replicated.
The general interpretation that does not depend on one unreplicated positive result. An established limitation is as important as an established benefit.
A prospective cohort study on the relationship between onion and leek consumption, garlic supplement use and the risk of colorectal carcinoma in The Netherlands.
The main tested claim was not supported, or the review judged the evidence insufficient. Secondary or subgroup signals should not replace that result.
- Study design
- Human observational or context study
- Tested form / scope
- Whole food
- Editorial interpretation
- The strongest evidence applies to varied vegetable intake; direct trials of this vegetable usually measure nutrients or intermediate markers.
- Screening record
- One relevant human PubMed source was verified and classified. This is a source card, not a complete evidence synthesis or a count of favorable studies.
