Lamberts Garlic 8250mg are high potency tablets which are carefully formulated to ensure the active ingredients are preserved, whilst the special coating reduces the garlic odour. Each tablet contains a level of garlic, equivalent to 8250mg of fresh garlic, with an allicin potential of 5500µg. The garlic used in these tablets is significantly closer to the nutritional profile of natural, raw garlic than many low priced 'high street' brands of garlic. The active ingredients in garlic are believed to be the many sulphur containing compounds, one of which is alliin. This is converted to allicin when the garlic is chewed or crushed. Garlic can be taken indefinitely but if you are using it for cholesterol problems then don't forget to have your levels checked regularly in case you need to take other measures. Daily intake: 1 tablet
