Garlic Plus C
The perfect combination for cold and flu
season. Each capsule combines Allirich odorless garlic with 200
mg. of Calcium Ascorbate.
For Cold and Flu
Season
Garlic
plus C is the
ideal supplement for
the cold and flu
season
and for
reinforcement of your
immune system.
Allicin-rich
garlic is a
strong antimicrobial
herb which can
prevent the
growth of bacteria and fungi. The
allicin in garlic interferes
with the respiration
and reproduction of microorganisms and
can
prevent their further growth. Because garlic
has this
bacteriostatic effect, it is best used on
a preventative level
and should be taken daily.
Vitamin C has long been known for
its ability
to lessen the severity of the common cold, and
has
been championed by two-time Nobel
Laureate, Dr. Linus Pauling.
He advocated
large doses of Vitamin C for cold
prevention
because it decreases the levels of histamine in
the
bloodstream. It is histamine that causes
the runny-nose and
watery-eyes that usually
accompany a cold. There are also
indications
that Vitamin C may have some antiviral
activity,
and it is a well noted anti-oxidant.
Together, Garlic and
Vitamin C can keep the
immune system stronger and help prevent
the
onset of infection. To assure they are easy on
the system,
the garlic has been “buffered” and
odor-controlled and the
Vitamin C is in the
form of Calcium Ascorbate to prevent
upset
stomach. This potent combination is
formulated in a base
of alfalfa powder, vanilla,
spearmint and chlorophyll. *
