Garlic has been used around the world for thousands of years.

Throughout history in the Middle East, East Asia, and Nepal, garlic has been used to treat bronchitis, hypertension (high blood pressure), tuberculosis, liver disorders, dysentery, flatulence, colic, intestinal worms, rheumatism, diabetes and fevers.

Benefits backed by science
Heart & Veins
Studies indicate that high doses of garlic appear to improve blood pressure for those with high blood pressure (hypertension). Garlic oil may also increase the elasticity of blood vessels and circulation, contributing to its abilty to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. In addition garlic supplements seem to reduce total (including LDL (bad)) cholesterol, particularly in those who have high cholesterol. HDL (good) cholesterol does not seem to be affected.
Brain
Garlic's inflammation reducing properties may be beneficial for your brain. Some research indicates that it may play a part in protecting brain health and cognitive function.
Immunity
Garlic supplements are known traditionally for boosting the function of the immune system, as it's sulphur-containing compounds may help the immune system fight germs. Research indicates these compounds boost the disease fighting response of some types of white blood cells when they encounter viruses, such as those that cause the common cold or flu.
Digestion
Garlic oil has been shown to demonstrate a range of antibacterial benefits against the bad bacteria in your gut. It may also inhibit bacteria that cause food poisoning. The allicin in garlic and some of its other compounds have been identified as the active ingredients that fight the gut pathogens said to cause several gastrointestinal disorders, including gastric cancer.
Why take our Garlic Oil
Pure formulation
Our Garlic may be one of the world’s most recognisable natural ingredients, but eating large amounts of raw garlic every day is not particularly convenient. Our Garlic Oil provides a concentrated 500 mg dose equivalent to approximately four garlic cloves in two convenient daily capsules.
Easy to swallow
Other garlic supplements on the market come in large and difficult to swallow tablets. Our team has created smaller, easy to swallow liquid capsules - with all of the goodness and none of the bad breath!
Interesting Facts
What is the active ingredient in garlic?
Garlic produces the organosulfur compound called allicin, which is responsible for many health benefits but also gives garlic its smell.
How much garlic should I take?
Each of our capsules contains 500mg of garlic mascerate. Research suggests that our recommended daily dosage is adequate to enjoy many of the benefits garlic may bring.
Are there any interactions or side effects?
Garlic interacts with some birth control pills, drugs processed by the liver and blood clotting medication. We recommend that you consult a healthcare professional before taking garlic with any of these medications. High doses of garlic may cause heartburn, gas, nausea, body odor and diarrhea. If you are pregnant or nursing talk to your doctor before taking supplemental garlic.
Why should I take a supplement instead of just eating garlic?
Supplementing garlic offers an easy alternative to eating raw garlic, with fewer side effects. To achieve the same effect as our capsules, you would need to eat four or more cloves of garlic a day, which is not only hard on your gastrointestinal system, but also on your breath! Its worth noting that cooking with garlic destroys its ability to produce its main ingredient responsible for the health benefits.
When is the best time to take Garlic Oil?
Research suggests you most benefits are derived from taking Garlic Oil in the morning and on empty stomach. Avoid taking with caffeine as this can prevent absorption and increase excretion.
