Health benefits at a glance:
With Life Extension’s Aged Black Garlic, you can discover garlic’s great cardiovascular benefits. Aged black garlic is shown to help maintain healthy blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels.
Each dose provides 500 mg of this clinically studied ingredient, containing 2.5 mg of S-allyl-cysteine.
Moreover, the formula provides an odorless extract in a once-daily, vegetarian, gluten-free product.
Why it works:
Garlic not only enhances the flavor of meals, but it’s also very beneficial for your heart. This is due to a compound and powerful antioxidant called S-allyl-cysteine (SAC) – and it gets better with age!
Extract of aged garlic extract, which is rich in SAC, has been clinically studied for its cardiovascular health benefits. However, it’s not found in significant amounts in raw garlic.
The unique aging process can not only boost the SAC levels but also reduce or eliminate the strong “garlic” odor found in some other garlic supplements.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE PRODUCT:
Results of clinical research In a placebo-controlled, randomized study, healthy adults were given 500 mg of garlic extract standardized to contain 2.5 mg of S-allyl cysteine (SAC).
The participants’ blood lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides were measured, as well as blood pressure and fasting blood sugar levels.
After 12 weeks, the group taking the SAC-enriched garlic extract experienced help in maintaining normal levels of triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, and total cholesterol. The ratio of total cholesterol to HDL was reduced by 20.8%, compared to 0.4% for placebo. (Open Acc J Comp & Alt Med. 2023;5(1):585-593.)
FAQ
What is in Aged Black Garlic?
This supplement contains 500 mg of a trademarked aged garlic extract standardized to 2.5 mg of S-allyl-cysteine (SAC). SAC can support cardiovascular health and is an active compound naturally occurring in aged black garlic. While raw garlic typically has low levels of SAC, the aging process significantly boosts its concentration per serving.
How is the garlic in this product aged?
Raw garlic undergoes a 15-to-90-day aging process with heat and humidity treatments to increase SAC content. This method provides almost twice the SAC amount compared to standard garlic formulations.
How does this formula promote heart health?
The aged black garlic in this supplement, standardized to 0.5% SAC, has been clinically studied to support healthy blood pressure, cholesterol, triglyceride levels and HDL.
Does this garlic supplement have a strong odor or taste?
No. The aging process used for this extract reduces garlic's natural odor and taste, compared to standard garlic formulations. There might be a stronger smell when first opening the bottle due to odor accumulation in the free space, but it should diminish with continued use.
