How does it work?
Garlic extract can clear the arteries of plaque, usually the precursor of a heart attack. It slows the accumulation of ‘soft plaque’ by up to 80 per cent, and reduces the amount of fatty deposits in the arteries, a new study has found.
Researchers are confident that it can help slow the progression of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries from fatty deposits).
Recommendation
A 2,400 milligram dose of the supplement every day seems to reverse many of the symptoms of early-stage heart disease, say researchers.
