 Buy their aged garlic supplements. I do, and I recommend them to my family and friends. In fact, garlic has many other health benefits beyond cholesterol: the herb also fights cancer and greatly enhances immune system function.
Medicine from nature: blueberries
One of my favorite solutions for fighting cholesterol levels is eating lots of blueberries. Blueberries have now been proven to be more effective than statin drugs in reducing cholesterol levels, and yet they have absolutely no negative side effects whatsoever. You can get blueberries throughout the year if you go to the right stores. |

 Manufacturers of aged garlic nutritional supplements, which actually lower cholesterol more powerfully than prescription drugs, cannot claim any health benefits whatsoever without being raided by the FDA and having their inventory confiscated. But a sugary breakfast cereal, somehow, can make health claims that seem to ignore the fact that the product is made with at least three different forms of sugar. As listed on the ingredients label: sugar, honey and brown sugar syrup. It's four if you count the modified corn starch. |

 Grapeseed extract: 100-200 mg daily
• Hawthorn: 1,500 mg daily
• Magnesium: 500-600 mg daily
Note: While antioxidant supplements, like most nutrients, almost never interact with drugs, some herbs with drug-like effects can have risky interactions with prescription medications.
You can often lower your cholesterol and blood pressure with diet, lifestyle, and natural supplements. Then, when medications are necessary, use them with caution, take the lowest dose possible, and make sure to take your supplements to stave off depletion and enjoy the best possible heart health. |

 Wonderful advice, and there are products out there, aged garlic as well, and I think Kyolic has a product.
Wolfe: Kyolic has a great product out there.
Mike: So garlic is number one. What is your second?
Wolfe: The second would be echinacea, and echinacea is a flower. It's a traditional kind of Native American herb, very well renowned for its immune system supporting properties. There are great echinacea products out there. You can have echinacea, just dried echinacea flowers in glass tucked away, and you can make tea out of that. |

Free Radicals
A free radical is an atom or group of atoms that contains at least one unpaired electron. Electrons are negatively charged particles that usually occur in pairs, forming a chemically stable arrangement. If an electron is unpaired, another atom or molecule can easily bond with it, causing a chemical reaction. Because they join so readily with other compounds, free radicals can effect dramatic changes in the body, and they can cause a lot of oxidative damage. |
| Aged garlic extract (such as Kyolic) is good.

 Aflatoxin B1 and benzo-a-pyrene (BaP) were inhibited from mutatingto salmonellatyphimurium by Ajoene and Diallyl-sulfide in aged garlic extract, which also inhibited aflatoxin B1 from binding to DNA, and increased nontoxic water-soluble metabolite glucuronides and glutathione conjugates. Take antidotes Vitamins C and Choline. Aflatoxin will grow twice as fast in irradiated wheat that has been reinfected with the aflatoxin mold because natural check-balance organisms have been eliminated. |

 Because garlic can effectively remove mercury from the nervous system, I recommend taking aged garlic extract daily. The dose is 300-600 mg three times a day. This method is the safest way to chelate brain mercury over a long period of time—without the danger of toxicity. If you eat mercury-containing fish, season it with garlic or take garlic extract with the meal to prevent absorption of the mercury.
The product also contains MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), dl-methionine and other components that reduce heavy metal loads, primarily in the bowel, and prevent their absorption. |

 Researchers found that people taking aged garlic extract had significantly less coronary plaque formation than did those in the placebo group. Also, the group supplementing the garlic tended to have lower blood homocysteine and cholesterol levels.
Study
A review published in the American Heart journal found that Policosanol lowered total cholesterol by 1 7 to 21 percent, as well as raised the good HDL cholesterol by 8 to 15 percent. It also reported that Policosanol was found to be equally as effective in lowering total or LDL cholesterol as the statin drugs Simvastatin or Pravastatin. |

| A recent study of the affects of garlic on platelet function in men with high blood-cholesterol levels found that those taking aged garlic supplements over a ten-month period showed a significant reduction in platelet clumping (adhesion) and activation by various stimulants commonly seen in clinical conditions, such as epinephrine release and exposure to collagen.385 Subjects taking the garlic also showed less oxidation of their LDL cholesterol. In addition, the garlic reduced the adhesion of the platelets to fibrinogen, an early event in heart attacks and strokes. |

 After fourteen days on aged garlic supplementation, the nonsmokers experienced a 29 percent drop in the plasma concentration of the oxidative stress marker, while smokers experienced a 35 percent drop. Urinary concentrations fell by 37 percent in the nonsmoking group and 48 percent in smokers. Researchers noted the confirmation of the increased oxidative stress in smokers as compared with nonsmokers, and concluded that dietary supplementation with aged garlic may help to prevent diseases associated with oxidative stress like atherosclerosis. |

 In a preliminary trial, 20 patients with sickle cell anemia were given either 1 mg of folic acid (page 520) per day or folic acid plus 6 grams of aged garlic (page 679) extract, 6 grams of vitamin C, and 1,200 mg of vitamin E per day for six months.8 Patients taking the combination had a significant improvement in their hematocrit (an index of anemia) and less painful crises than those taking just folic acid.
Preliminary research has found that patients with sickle cell anemia are more likely to have elevated blood levels of homocysteine (page 234) compared to healthy people. |

 This fact accounts for the fact that cooked garlic as well as "aged garlic preparations" and garlic oil products produce neither as strong an odor as raw garlic nor nearly as powerful medicinal effects.
Since allicin is the component in garlic that is responsible for its easily identifiable odor, some manufacturers have developed highly sophisticated methods in an effort to provide the full benefits of garlic—they provide "odorless" garlic products concentrated for alliin because alliin is relatively "odorless" until it is converted to allicin in the body. |
