Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract Formula 200

We set out to investigate the potential of garlic derivatives as an alternative treatment for ear infections. With antibiotic resistance on the rise, finding new ways to combat these infections has become increasingly crucial.

Our study focused on the antimicrobial properties of four garlic compounds: allicin, s-allyl cysteine (SAC), diallyl disulfide (DADS), and s-allyl mercaptocysteine (SAMC). By using the broth microdilution method, we tested how effectively these compounds could inhibit the growth of bacteria and yeasts that commonly cause ear infections.

We were excited to find that both allicin and SAC demonstrated impressive antimicrobial activity, even at low concentrations. This opens up the possibility that these garlic derivatives could be used in the future to treat infections in the ear. However, DADS and SAMC showed considerably less effectiveness, particularly SAMC, which did not showcase any significant impact against the tested microorganisms.

Overall, our findings suggest that garlic derivatives, particularly allicin and SAC, could represent a promising direction in the search for new treatments for ear infections.

Amazing sinus infection relief! I had been taking Kyolic garlic products on and off but got a horrible sinus infection from a mould allergy on vacation. After trying various natural remedies to no avail, I turned to Kyolic Reserve. After one tablet, my head started to clear, and I even felt my ear pop while sleeping. I continued to improve after taking a few more doses. I'm elated to find such a powerful natural antibiotic; my sinus infection has cleared!

We examined the effectiveness of garlic as a treatment to prevent cold symptoms based on a comprehensive review of systematic reviews. This analysis included various studies that compared garlic and other preventative interventions against a control group receiving no treatment or a placebo.

Our findings indicated that garlic demonstrated notable advantages in reducing instances of influenza, a key player in the spectrum of cold-like illnesses. However, we also learned that the evidence surrounding garlic specifically for cold prevention isn't robust enough to make definitive claims.

It's essential to note that while garlic showed potential, vitamin C did not present any significant benefits in this context. Ultimately, the effectiveness of other interventions remains to be convincingly validated with strong scientific evidence.

Best garlic supplement. After trying several, I return to this one due to its lack of taste or smell, and I can tell it works best for my body and immunity. I use it as a preventative for cold/flu and haven't been sick in three years. Combined with Vitamin C and B Complex, plus powdered Colostrum during cold seasons, I recently felt a flu coming and took 2 pills three times a day, and it was gone within 3 days. I never progressed beyond the initial "I'm getting sick" feeling.

Garlic shows potential against influenza

Ming L, Li Z, Li X, Tang L, He G. Antiviral activity of diallyl trisulfide against H9N2 avian influenza virus infection in vitro and in vivo. Virol J. 2021;18:171. doi:10.1186/s12985-021-01641-w

We explored the potential benefits of a garlic-derived compound called diallyl trisulfide (DATS) in combating the H9N2 avian influenza virus. This study specifically looked at its antiviral properties both in human cells and in mice to see if it could provide relief from this infection.

In our research, we treated human lung A549 cells and also utilized BABL/c mice to assess DATS’s effectiveness. We applied DATS before and after the infection and measured its impact on viral loads, inflammatory responses, and overall lung health.

The results were promising. Whether given before or after exposure to the virus, DATS treatment reduced viral loads and led to an improved immune response by increasing antiviral gene expression while also decreasing inflammatory cytokines. Similar benefits were observed in infected mice, highlighting less lung inflammation and edema.

Overall, the findings suggest that DATS may offer a novel alternative for treating influenza, specifically the H9N2 strain, showcasing garlic's potential role in managing viral infections.

G. integrifolia shows antifungal promise

de Souza ANV, Faria MGI, da Rocha CE, Philippsen GS, Silva GCC, et al. Bioactive compounds with antifungal activity against pathogens isolated from pregnant woman: Gallesia integrifolia (garlic wood) is a promising treatment for vulvovaginal candidiasis. J Ethnopharmacol. 2022;295:115403. doi:10.1016/j.jep.2022.115403

We investigated the antifungal properties of Gallesia integrifolia, particularly in treating vulvovaginal candidiasis, which affects many pregnant women. This study focused on the plant's leaves and flowers, known for their medicinal uses in folk medicine. By testing different isolates of Candida, the fungi responsible for this infection, we measured the effectiveness of G. integrifolia using a method called broth microdilution.

One of the key findings was that G. integrifolia acted against various Candida species, showing promising results that suggest it could potentially be a natural alternative to traditional antifungal treatments, which sometimes come with negative side effects. We also employed advanced techniques such as gas chromatography to understand the chemical composition of the essential oils in the plant.

Overall, our results indicate that G. integrifolia, particularly its leaves and flowers, could offer a new therapeutic approach for treating vulvovaginal candidiasis, and it brings hope for safer treatments in pregnant women facing this common issue.

In 2002, doctors at Dayton Heart Hospital indicated my mother had 99% blockage in her heart's arteries and placed her in hospice care. I began her on Kyolic Aged Garlic, CoQ-10, Hawthorn, Taurine, Nattokinase, Olive Leaf Extract, and Pomegranate products. Since, I've added immune boosters. Remarkably, she is still alive and much improved compared to 2002. I truly believe Kyolic Aged Garlic has effectively slowed or halted the progress of her atherosclerosis, and I will continue administering it.

Garlic's allicin aids heart recovery

Gao Y, Qin G, Liang S, Yin J, Wang B, et al. Metagenomic Sequencing Combined with Metabolomics to Explore Gut Microbiota and Metabolic Changes in Mice with Acute Myocardial Infarction and the Potential Mechanism of Allicin. Drug Des Devel Ther. 2025;19:771. doi:10.2147/DDDT.S504884

We induced acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in mice to investigate the impact of allicin, a key component of garlic, on heart health. Over 28 days, we administered allicin orally while monitoring various factors such as heart function and inflammation through echocardiography and other tests.

Our findings revealed that allicin significantly eased myocardial injury, reducing markers of inflammation and improving heart function. It did this by inhibiting certain pathways associated with inflammation and remodeling gut microbiota, which plays a role in overall health.

Essentially, we found that allicin not only supports heart recovery but also enhances intestinal barrier health and improves metabolic balance. This discovery opens up exciting avenues for allicin to be considered as a supplementary treatment alongside conventional therapies for heart attacks.

Dr Matthew Budoff’s study showed that Kyolic garlic extract can prevent heart attack by reducing arterial plaque accumulation. Patients taking the extract showed a decrease in plaque, while the placebo group saw an increase. He recommends 1200 mg daily for heart health, highlighting its effectiveness in lowering homocysteine levels, a heart disease marker.
