The Vitamin Shoppe Deodorized Garlic 500MG, Wholesome Garlic with No Aftertaste & All Cardiovascular Benefits, Equal to 1 Fresh Clove of Garlic (100 Capsules)

Used to help bring Cholesterol down
I took this as a dietary supplement after reading suggestions that it would help me lower my cholesterol. I should mention that I made drastic dietary changes (pretty much cut out red meats – avoided foods with high amounts of cholesterol) as well and began a regular workout routine. I found this was a useful supplement for me as I took my cholesterol from 260 in November of 2008 to 157 in August of 2009. The biggest drop for me occurred between April 2009 when I had 230 for total cholesterol to August. Of course – no guarantees for your performance on this supplement, but I found it to be a useful part of my strategy to get a bit healthier.

Effective but not deodorized!
I’ve been taking this to combat fatigue and chronic yeast infections and it has helped tremendously – more than any other product just about! However, the only down side is that some of the pills have a very strong garlic odor/flavor as they go down the hatch. I wouldn’t mind that so much if they didn’t advertise that it was ‘deodorized’. But since I didn’t expect that unpleasant taste, it was quite a shocker.
