EPA is a member of the Omega-3 fatty acid family. It is required for the production of a special group of substances in the body called prostaglandins, which control blood clotting and other arterial functions. Of almost equal importance is DHA, a major component of the human brain tissues and the retinal tissues of the eyes. DHA also serves the other important function of the transmission of nerve impulses in the nervous system.

Garlic and its key constituents have been the subject of hundreds of scientific studies. As far back as the first century A.D., a Roman physician wrote of garlic's ability to "clear the arteries." In Europe, garlic has come to be seen as an all-around intervention for preventing atherosclerosis, the cause of heart disease and strokes. Garlic can lower total cholesterol levels. Garlic also appears to improve high blood pressure. Garlic preparations have been found to slow hardening of the arteries in animals, reducing the size of plaque deposits. Raw garlic can kill a wide variety of microorganisms by direct contact, including fungi, bacteria, and viruses. A study in 1999 found that a cream made from garlic was just as effective for fungal skin infections as the most commonly used drug.

Suggested Use: Take two or four softgels with meals per day as a dietary supplement or as directed by your physician.
