Oxoamidin is an odourless,
high strength garlic. Just one capsule of Oxoamidin is equivalent to eating
6000mg (6 grams) of fresh garlic, but without the odour normally
associated with garlic.
The use of garlic for an extremely wide variety of
traditional health purposes has been reported throughout recorded history. It was
consumed as a part of the diet by the ancient Greeks and Romans, and was
employed by the Egyptians to give strength and nourishment to the slaves
constructing pyramids and has been described by herbalists of the sixteenth
century onwards.
USES OF GARLIC
THE IMMUNE
SYSTEM:
Many scientific studies concentrated on the immune
supporting properties of garlic. In the first
world war, garlic was used topically on wounds.
Pasteur (1858) and Lehmann (1930) were the first to present modern scientific
evidence for the antibacterial effects of garlic. Since then many scientific
studies have focused on these particular properties of garlic.
Hughes and Lawson (1991) found antibacterial and
antifungal activities in garlic and garlic supplements. They linked this
activity to certain sulphur compounds present in garlic, in particular allicin,
a compound formed when garlic is crushed. CARDIOVASCULAR
SYSTEM; In this area, research has been conducted on the Cholesterol
balancing properties of garlic and its support for blood health
HEART DISEASE; In this area, research has been conducted on the
effect of garlic on cholesterol levels, fibrinolytic activity and the
aggregation of blood platelets.
BLOOD PRESSURE:
Over the last few years
several well-conducted medical investigations have been conducted on the effects
of garlic on supporting healthy blood pressure.
OTHER REASONS TO TAKE GARLIC:
Garlic is among
the few herbs with universal usage and recognition. It contains the minerals
selenium and germanium which enhance the beneficial effects of garlic.
The incorporation
of selenium as an antioxidant further enriches Garlic’s portent antioxidant
activity

aftertaste that maybe present in the garlic.
