Aged Black Garlic
Brand: Peak Performance
Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
The efficacy of Garlic (Allium sativum) in this supplement relies on its aging process, which converts unstable allicin into stable, bioavailable compounds like S-Allyl-Cysteine. At a cellular level, S-Allyl-Cysteine acts as a potent antioxidant, scavenging free radicals to reduce oxidative stress. It supports cardiovascular health by promoting healthy blood flow and maintaining cholesterol levels already within the normal range. Unlike raw garlic, the aged form ensures higher absorption of these sulfur-containing compounds, which are crucial for cellular detoxification pathways and immune system modulation.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports cardiovascular health and healthy blood circulation
- Provides potent antioxidant protection against cellular damage
- Promotes immune system function without the strong garlic odor
- Aids in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels
Usage & Safety
The recommended dosage is 1 capsule daily, taken with a meal to enhance absorption. Consistency is key for cumulative benefits. While generally safe, Garlic can interact with blood-thinning medications (anticoagulants) and certain HIV drugs. Consult a physician if you are pregnant, nursing, or taking medication. This product is free from common allergens like gluten, dairy, and soy.
