Quest Kyolic Garlic - 1000mg - 50% Extra FREE - 30+15 Tablets

Aged garlic has been shown in many research papers to be more potent than non-aged garlic. Aged garlic is a therapeutic agent for the health of the heart, the liver and immune system.

Quest Kyolic garlic is organically grown and cold-aged for 20 months. This process increases the hydrophilic sulphur containing compounds; S-allylmercaptocysteine (SAMC), S-allylcysteine (SAC) and S-mythyl cysteine. Kyolic garlic also contains hydrophobic compounds such as diallyl sulphide (DAS), diallyl disulphide (DADS), diallyl trisulphide, allyl methyl trisulphide, dithiins, and ajoene. 

These substances decreases low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, improves blood circulation, supports healthy blood pressure levels and reduces platelet aggregation and adhesion to blood vessel walls. 

Aged garlic contains a high level of antioxidants that enhances immune function and reduces the risk of infections at the same time as protecting cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. 

S-allymercaptocysteine enhances the activity of the liver enzymes and assists in detoxification pathways. 

Unlike raw garlic, Kyolic garlic does not contain allicin, making it gentle on the stomach and suitable for most people.

• Produced using organically grown cold-aged garlic.
• Aged garlic is a source of antioxidants including S-allylmercaptocysteine and S-allylcysteine.
• Supports the health of the heart, liver and immune system.
• No garlic taste.

Why take Quest Kyolic Garlic:

Atherosclerosis: Due to the potent antioxidants in aged garlic, it has the ability to inhibit oxidative changes of cholesterol, and therefore protect the endothelial cells of the blood vessels from becoming damaged and oxidized, a major factor in the development of atherosclerosis1.

Cholesterol: Aged garlic reduces serum cholesterol significantly. High density lipoprotein (HDL) is increased, and LDL decreases. It is the combination of compounds in aged garlic, including both hydrophilic and hydrophobic agents that inhibit the synthesis of LDL cholesterol. 

High blood pressure and circulation: Saged garlic can reduce systolic and diastolic blood
pressure, reducing the strain on the heart. 

Blood health: Aged garlic provides antithrombic activity. It decreases the adhesion of platelets to the blood vessel walls and reduces platelet aggregation, both important factors in reducing the risk of developing blood clots.

Oxidation: Aged garlic has the ability to protect the liver against oxidation induced diseases, damage from ageing, radiation and chemical exposure and long term toxic damage1. 

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: Aged garlic may also be bene cial in the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). 

Detoxification: The sulphur compounds increase the body’s production of glutathione, a potent stimulator of detoxification and aids in the removal of heavy metals, environmental and indigenous toxins. The sulphur compounds in aged garlic also help to protect blood cells from damage induced by heavy metals. 

Inflammation: Aged garlic decreases the expression of (NF)-kB, an inflammatory signal protein within the body.

Immune modulation: The potent antioxidants in aged garlic stimulate appropriate immunological action, by enhancing the number of Natural Killer cells. Aged garlic is also an immune modulator, an important factor in immune system health. 

Antimicrobial: Aged garlic extract has been shown to heal mucosal tissue in the gut, and provide anti-microbial protection and regulation of the microbiome. Good gut health and a healthy microbiome is the first step in ensuring effective immune functioning.
