Garlic (60caps/530mg)

Heart and blood vessels

Garlic can significantly lower total cholesterol levels. Harvard Medical School classifies as data B, ie very good scientific quality, the data that support the hypolipidemic action of garlic. Other data show that garlic contributes significantly to lowering systolic blood pressure. This action is well known to the general public. The German Committee for Herbs (Commission E) adds to the official indications of garlic and hypertension. The situation is similar in terms of atherosclerosis and its consequences. Garlic can therefore prevent blood clots in the blood vessels and prevent the development of atherosclerotic plaque. Many and remarkable studies support this. Garlic has recently been found to reduce two other possible cardiovascular risk markers in smokers and obese people, C-reactive protein (so it has anti-inflammatory action) and homocysteine. In 1999, one of the most important international scientific journals in Cardiology, Atherosclerosis, published an incredible work on garlic. Carotid and femoral artery atherosclerotic plaque tumors were studied in 280 patients over a period of 4 years. Half were taking pharmacy 900 mg daily garlic tablets and the other placebo. In those who took garlic, the atherosclerotic plaque showed a reversal, ie a decrease of 2.6% in the four years. In the placebo group, however, it increased by 15.6%. Therefore, the benefit of garlic was so significant that it has not been recorded by any drug to date.

Prevents cancer cells

Garlic contains sulfides and other substances that slow down or prevent the growth of cancer cells.
Garlic sulfides appear to cause damage to cancer cells as they grow rapidly. The relevant research was done in the form of comparison in populations that consume or do not consume garlic, but also in the laboratory, in experimental animals or in cell cultures. The beneficial anti-cancer effects of garlic are observed in various organs and tissues. They affect various carcinogens and are manifested in organisms other than humans. The data gathered to date prove that there is a close correlation between garlic consumption and the prevention of stomach and prostate cancer.

Infections

Over the centuries, garlic has been used around the world in the fight against bacterial infections. Louis Pasteur was the first modern scientist to describe the antibacterial action of onion and garlic juices. Garlic can kill many types of bacteria, some viruses and fungi in the laboratory, and even intestinal parasites. From many important study reviews, it is concluded that garlic is effective in inhibiting the growth of many types of germs that cause many common diseases, such as food poisoning. Another important germ is the mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is often resistant to common antibiotics and has recently been on the rise. There is significant evidence for the use of garlic in the common cold, according to which those who consumed garlic between November and February had a significantly lower average of colds. Finally, garlic may be effective in eradicating Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that has been shown to be responsible for many cases of peptic ulcer.
