The heart of the matter In addition to its normalising effects on blood pressure, Kyolic was also found to improve other cardiovascular health markers, such as arterial stiffness (i.e., how quickly blood flows through the arteries), inflammation and gut microbiota.
Our previous research suggests that Kyolic aged garlic extract is effective in reducing blood pressure in a large proportion (70–80%) of hypertensive patients similar to first-line standard antihypertensive medication (1–3), and has shown promise in reducing central blood pressure, arterial stiffness, and inflammation ...
Heart protection
Fresh raw garlic is known for its ability to help improve heart health. Black garlic may provide the same protective effects.
Breath and body odor, upset stomach, or heartburn may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: easy or unusual bruising/bleeding.
Our Aged Garlic Extract is safe to take and is generally well tolerated unless you are allergic or sensitive to garlic or any compounds in garlic.
Our second dose-response trial revealed that a dose of 2 capsules/day of Kyolic aged garlic extract was sufficient to achieve an average blood pressure-lowering effect of 10 mmHg systolic and 5 mmHg diastolic, within 2–3 months (6).
The active stable ingredient S-allylcysteine (SAC) is responsible for Kyolic's effect on blood pressure, with the optimal daily intake amount per person being 2 capsules of aged garlic extract of the Kyolic High Potency Formula a day (1.2mg).
People in the aged garlic group saw a reduction of a specific kind of plaque in the deposits in their arteries, compared with those who took a placebo during the same time period, who did not see a reduction.
Some people have allergic reactions to garlic. Taking garlic supplements may increase the risk of bleeding. If you take an anticoagulant (blood thinner), such as warfarin (Coumadin), or if you need surgery, tell your health care provider if you're taking or planning to take garlic supplements.
We start with organically grown garlic then apply our proprietary, natural aging process that concentrates the medicinal essence, enhances the nutrient compounds, and removed the odor. The result is a potent extract that is gentle on the stomach so that you can take it every day.
Kyolic garlic becomes odourless through the ageing process, and unlike raw garlic, it does not contain allicin, making it gentle on the stomach and suitable for most people.
A meta-analysis of 39 trials and 2,300 participants demonstrated an improvement in total cholesterol and low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) in adults with slightly elevated levels at baseline (44). Moreover, Kyolic aged garlic extract has demonstrated to be able to normalise blood thickness.
The administration of `Kyolic' to the cholesterol-fed animals significantly reduced tissue cholesterol levels by 20% from 2.14±0.1 to 1.7±0.09 mg cholesterol/g tissue (P<0.05).
Taking garlic by mouth daily for at least 8 weeks might reduce total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL, "bad" cholesterol) in people with high cholesterol levels. But any benefit is probably small.
Garlic is considered to be a safe supplement to take regularly, whether it's fresh or in a capsule. Of course, there are some conditions where you may wish to consider when taking regular of garlic, especially in larger doses.
An important study also found taking garlic every day can improve a senior's immune system to help prevent flu and cold while reducing the severity of the illnesses by up to 70 percent.
There is no easy way to unclog an artery once plaque has built up. But, dietary choices, exercise, and avoiding smoking can improve cardiovascular health and stop blockages from worsening. In some cases, medication or surgery may be necessary.
We recommend taking our Kyolic products with food, preferably during or right after a meal. With food, the pH of the stomach is less acidic which allows the AGE and its constituents to survive and go into the intestinal tract for absorption.
Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract begins on certified organic farms in California's Central Valley, where it is grown without the use of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides.
The heart of the matter
In addition to its normalising effects on blood pressure, Kyolic was also found to improve other cardiovascular health markers, such as arterial stiffness (i.e., how quickly blood flows through the arteries), inflammation and gut microbiota.
Over forty-seven years of clinical research have documented the numerous benefits of Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract including: Lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels* Slowing the progression of coronary artery calcification* Inhibiting the accumulation of “soft” unstable plaque*
