Wakunaga of America Company - Kyolic Formula 106, 300 capsules

This is a good garlic supplement ...its Organic, and a odorless garlic with added supplements of vitamin E ,Cayenne,and Hawthorn which are all EXCELLENT for heart function and arteries ect.. ...

Though a little more expensive this is a QUALITY garlic supplement for your heart and body and imo only surpassed by eating fresh garlic but you still wouldn't get the other supplements which are all very good for your heart and circulation .....

But with that said based on all the garlic supplements i've tried and researched I haven't found any other supplement with this combination of ingredients, all together in 1 pill that is good for your heart like this one....

Its a good quality heart supplement overall, and tough to beat imo....

It's true there are other garlic on the market cheaper. Are they reliable? Are they good quality? Don't be cheap on your health. Besides this product, contains vitamin E, Cayenne and Hawthorne. All in one. I definetely recommend it. If all this products are bought by themselves, imagine how much you would pay.

This is an expensive garlic supplementation product. There are others on the market that are less expensive and just as (if not more) potent. However, this product combines other supplements to complement garlic.

People use garlic to prevent plaque buildup on the arteries, improve high blood pressure, reduce coughs, colds, bronchitis, and even pneumonia.

The antibiotic activity of one milligram of allicin (the active ingredient in garlic), equals 15 units of penicillin. It is an extremely effective, broad-spectrum antibiotic, killing gram negative and gram positive. Garlic's use has been proven to destroy many types of bacteria.

In studies, garlic has also been shown to be effective against parasites. Some studies show promise in using garlic to treat children's ear infections.

Studies are mixed, but several have found garlic to slightly lower blood pressure.

Garlic remedies have also been used to treat cancer, the common cold, diabetes, high cholesterol, atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), and more.

Garlic is best eaten raw (although most folks will not take the raw form due tot he smell) and the most potent garlic preparations are the ones made at home. Although raw garlic is the most potent, most folks who take garlic take it in supplemental form. The average dose for supplementation is 500 - 1,000 mg/day. Dosages for children under the age of 16 have not been determined.

Garlic is considered to have very low toxicity and is listed as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States.

Side effects from garlic include upset stomach, bloating, bad breath, body odor, and a stinging sensation on the skin from handling too much fresh or dried garlic. Handling garlic may also cause the appearance of skin lesions. Other side effects that have been reported by those taking garlic supplements include headache, fatigue, loss of appetite, muscle aches, dizziness described as vertigo (namely, the room spinning), and allergies such as an asthmatic reaction or contact dermatitis (skin rash).

Garlic has blood-thinning properties so people with bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia or platelet disorders, should not use garlic supplements or medicinal doses of garlic. This is also important to know if you are going to have surgery or deliver a baby. Too much garlic can increase your risk for bleeding during or after those procedures.

Garlic is best taken each day with a meal.
