NSI Aged Garlic Extract with Red Yeast Rice -- 1200 mg per serving - 180 Capsules

NSI Aged Garlic Extract with Red Yeast Rice -- 1200 mg per serving - 180 Capsules

Safe, natural combination helps promote healthy cholesterol levels. May also provide antioxidant protection. How Does NSI® Aged Garlic Extract with Red Yeast Rice work? Aged garlic extract is an extract of garlic bulbs fermented in a diluted alcohol solution for up to two years. This long-aging fermentation process breaks down garlic's sulfur-containing properties, creating an odorless substance rich in active bioavailable compounds. One of these compounds, S-allyl-cysteine (SAC), is believed to promote healthy cholesterol levels. A derivative of the amino acid cysteine, SAC also demonstrates high antioxidant activity, giving it the potential to help protect healthy cells from the damaging effects of free radicals. Red yeast rice is the fermentation by-product of a strain of yeast (Monascus purpureus) on cooked, non-glutinous rice. It contains fiber, rice starch and fatty acids, as well as compounds known as monacolins, which provide natural benefits for cholesterol health. The majority of the body's cholesterol is produced in the liver, and elements in red yeast rice—specifically, a substance known as mevinolin—may effectively restrict its production. Red yeast rice also contains monounsaturated fatty acids that may help promote healthy serum lipid levels. NSI® Aged Garlic Extract with Red Yeast Rice delivers an optimal 600 mg of aged garlic extract and 600 mg of red yeast rice per two-capsule serving. Please note: Because red yeast rice functions similarly to statin cholesterol-lowering drugs, it may deplete the body's natural stores of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a nutrient essential to cellular energy production. CoQ10 supplements are recommended for those taking red yeast rice for cholesterol-health maintenance. NSI® Aged Garlic Extract with Red Yeast Rice is better because it:. Combines two cholesterol-health-promoting nutrients in one convenient supplement. Contains high-quality ingredient, yet is available at an incredible value compared to other similar products on the market.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

Great stuff, October 19, 2009
By Singing

"I've been using this for years following Dr. recommendation to lower my cholesterol. It did and if I go off it, it comes back up. I consider garlic a panacea anyway so overall, I am devoted to this product and will take it indefinitely."

Great night sleep, November 21, 2008
By Miltenberger from Frostburg, Maryland

"The aged garlic extract with red yeast rice at 1200 mg. per capsule is one of the best products that I have used for ease of breathing, immunity, and detoxifing my body. I sincerely recommend this product to any one with heavy metal exposure, immunity issues and high blood pressure to consider using this product. My breathing at night is very relaxed and my blood pressure is now 103 over 68. Use this product with a walking excerise program and people should see improvements within weeks. This is really one of the best synergistic combinations of supplements that I have found on the market today."

"I have battled with high cholesterol most of my adult life and have refused to get on any statins. My last count before this product was 313. It is now down to 232. The HDL is up to 67 and the LDL has fallen 55 points in the last six weeks. Thanks to the person at Vitacost for telling me about it!
Hope that it will help you too.

"I think the product is an excellent value for the money but the garlic is NOT deodorized well. Two capsules in the morning and you'll be burping up garlic smell for most of the day. Just open the bottle and the smell of garlic will knock you over.

If you don't like the smell or taste of garlic, this is not the product for you.
