Garlic Oil

What is Garlic Oil? 
Garlic Oil softgels contain Garlicillin™, a blend of garlic and parsley oils, with specified levels of garlic sulfides and ajoene, the most biologically effective compound formed from garlic. These softgels have a special coating designed to reduce the strong garlic odor that may occur from supplementing with garlic, while the parsley oil acts as a natural breath freshener.*

What are the benefits of Garlic Oil?
Garlic Oil contains garlic sulfides which may support a healthy inflammatory response and protect against oxidative stress, plus ajoene which helps to promote a healthy inflammatory response, the maintenance of normal platelet function, and is responsible for many of garlic’s other historically recognized effects, such as inhibiting the normal overgrowth of unfriendly organisms, including bacteria, parasites, and fungi (yeast).

What is the recommended dose? 
The recommended dose is one capsule, twice per day.

When should I take it? 
This supplement should be taken with meals, at breakfast and dinner.

Can it be taken with thyroid medications?

How long can I take Garlic Oil for? 
Garlic Oil can be taken for one to three months.
