Rally is built on one compound that's been studied for over 80 years. Here's the evidence behind it, in full, including the parts that are still being worked out.
The numbers
From the trial
63% fewer
Colds caught
Over 12 weeks, the allicin group recorded 24 colds against 65 in the placebo group, roughly 63% fewer episodes across the study.
Josling, Adv. Ther. 2001
2.5× faster
Faster recovery
People taking allicin who still caught a cold recovered markedly quicker than those on placebo, up to around 2.5× faster in the supplemented group.

80+ years
Of evidence
Since allicin was first isolated and shown to kill bacteria in 1944, it has demonstrated antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activity across dozens of organisms in lab studies.

The mechanism
End to end
How a stable precursor becomes an active antimicrobial
Precursor
Stable alliin, stored inert until it's activated.
alliin · C₆H₁₁NO₃S

Activation
The enzyme alliinase switches it on instantly.

Allicin
A short-lived, reactive antimicrobial compound.

Action
It jams the enzymes microbes rely on to survive.

Most of this comes from laboratory work and early clinical trials, and individual results vary. Enlyven is a food supplement, not a medicine. It supports your body's own recovery; it isn't a treatment or a cure.
