Q: Lower Cholesterol Naturally With Garlic

You can lower cholesterol naturally using garlic. In a double-blind placebo-controlled study that followed 152 individuals for 4 years, standardized garlic powder at a dosage of 900 mg daily significantly slowed the development of atherosclerosis. In another study, 432 individuals who had suffered a heart attack were given either garlic extract or no treatment over a period of 3 years.

The results showed a significant reduction of second heart attacks and about a 50% reduction in death rate among those taking garlic.
