Daily Dose Of Garlic Can Save Your Life

Garlic supplements and hypertension

A recent article from the Daily Express, written by Health Editor Victoria Fletcher has reported that a daily dose of garlic can save your life.

According to new research garlic supplements can be as effective as drugs in helping to lower blood pressure, which means that "over-the-counter" supplements could be used to help save lives.

Research has shown that patients suffering from high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, who took garlic supplements everyday for upto 5 months, saw their blood pressure levels drop significantly. In some cases the drop was as much as that seen in patients taking drugs such as beta blockers and ACE inhibitors, said Dr Karin Reid of Adelaide University in South Australia.
