Item description for healthy heart supplement - ODORLESS GARLIC & PARSLEY 600mg

It is closely related to onions, shallots and leeks. Each segment of a garlic bulb is called a clove. There are about 10-20 cloves in a single bulb, give or take. Garlic grows in many parts of the world and is a popular ingredient in cooking due to its strong smell and delicious taste.

However, throughout ancient history, the main use of garlic was for its health and medicinal properties. Its use was well documented by many major civilizations, including the Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans and Chinese.

Scientists now know that most of its health benefits are caused by sulfur compounds formed when a garlic clove is chopped, crushed or chewed. The sulfur compounds from garlic enter the body from the digestive tract and travel all over the body, where it exerts its potent biological effects.

One large, 12-week study found that a daily garlic supplement reduced the number of colds by 63% compared to a placebo. The average length of cold symptoms was also reduced by 70%, from 5 days in the placebo group to just 1.5 days in the garlic group.

Another study found that a high dose of aged garlic extract reduced the number of days sick with cold or flu by 61%.

Cardiovascular diseases like heart attacks and strokes are the world's biggest killers.

High blood pressure, or hypertension, is one of the most important drivers of these diseases. Studies have found garlic supplements to have a significant impact on reducing blood pressure in people with high blood pressure.

In one study, 600-1,500 mg of aged garlic extract was just as effective as the drug Atenolol at reducing blood pressure over a 24-week period.

Garlic can lower total and LDL cholesterol. For those with high cholesterol, garlic supplements appear to reduce total and LDL cholesterol by about 10-15%. Looking at LDL (the "bad") and HDL (the "good") cholesterol specifically, garlic appears to lower LDL but has no reliable effect on HDL.

High triglyceride levels are another known risk factor for heart disease, but garlic seems to have no significant effects on triglyceride levels.

Garlic contains antioxidants that support the body's protective mechanisms against oxidative damage. High doses of garlic supplements have been shown to increase antioxidant enzymes in humans, as well as significantly reduce oxidative stress in those with high blood pressure.

Some people take parsley by mouth for urinary tract infections (UTIs), kidney stones, gastrointestinal disorders, constipation, cough, asthma, and high blood pressure.

Parsley is a nutritional powerhouse with vitamins A, B, C and K and the minerals iron and potassium. This emerald green herb is popular among starlets who want to drop extra water weight before big events because it helps to reduce water retention and bloating. It's a natural diuretic, which helps to eliminate excess fluid without depleting the body of potassium.

Beyond water weight, parsley aids in balancing blood sugar, helping with long-term weight balance. It also plays a key role in preventing the degenerative effects of diabetes on the liver.

OTHER INGREDIENTS: Soybean oil, gelatin(bovine), vegetable glycerin, purified water, and sodium chlorophyllin complex.
