Garlic is good
for you... Very good!
Numerous studies have demonstrated that regular consumption of garlic lowers blood pressure, and decreases platelet aggregation, serum triglycerides and LDL-cholesterol (the potentially dangerous form) levels while increasing serum HDL-cholesterol (the protective form) and fibrinolysis (the process through which the body breaks up blood clots), and stimulating the production of nitric oxide in the lining of blood vessel walls, which helps them to relax. As a result of these beneficial actions, garlic helps prevent atherosclerosis and diabetic heart disease, and reduces the risk of heart attack or stroke.
A study published in the November 2004 issue of Preventive Medicine shows that garlic also inhibits coronary artery calcification, a process that serves as a marker for plaque formation since the body lays down calcium in areas that have been damaged. In this year-long study, patients given aged garlic extract daily showed an average increase in their calcium score of 7.5%, while those in the placebo group had an average increase in calcium score of 22.2%.
One reason for garlic's beneficial effects may be its ability to lessen the amount of free radicals present in the bloodstream.

According to a study published in the September 2004 issue of Life Sciences, a daily dose of 1 ml/kg body weight of garlic extract for six months resulted in a significant reduction in oxidant (free radical) stress in the blood of patients with atherosclerosis.
Since atherosclerotic plaques develop when
cholesterol circulating in the bloodstream is damaged or oxidized, garlic's ability to prevent these oxidation reactions may explain some of its beneficial effects in atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. A German study published in November 2004 indicates that garlic also greatly reduces plaque deposition and size by preventing the formation of the initial complex that develops into an atherosclerotic plaque. Called "nanoplaque," it is formed when calcium binds to proteoheparan sulfate and then to LDL cholesterol. Garlic prevents the binding of calcium to proteoheparan sulfate, thus decisively inhibiting plaque generation.

Over the years
garlic has become the
mainstay of any good chef's cupboard but now
it is also taking its rightful place next to
the medicine cupboard. It is one of the most
commonly-used health supplements in the
world and it's health-giving properties
include: Reducing the risk of both heart
disease and strokes by lowering the level of
harmful cholesterol in the blood. Improving
the efficiency of the immune system to
provide greater resistance to infections -

benefits of garlic but without the bad
breath! Each soft gel capsule provides 50mcg Allicin from the equivalent of 1000mg fresh
