Garlic Supplements

Garlic supplements are available as tablets, capsules, softgels, oils and aged garlic extracts. Products vary in the type of garlic preparation, strength, odour level, serving size and additional ingredients. Compare the amount and form of garlic rather than assuming all products provide the same composition. Garlic supplements may cause breath or body odour, digestive discomfort or allergic reactions. They may also increase bleeding risk, particularly when combined with anticoagulants, aspirin or before surgery, so users taking medicines should consult a healthcare professional.
