Topic: Newly Published Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract Study on Global Cognitive Health.

Joining us today is Jane Jansen, a Natural & Holistic Practitioner at The Tree of Life Wellness Center in Massachusetts. Jane has the unique perspective as a medical professional who, prior to becoming a natural & holistic practitioner, spent years in Radiology and Ultrasound doing research and performing tests on patients with varying types of health problems including cardiovascular. Jane joins us to discuss a very exciting, NEWLY published study that shows that Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract enhances cognition by increasing Nitric Oxide.

According to The Alzheimer’s Association, an estimated 7.2 million Americans, age 65 and older, are currently living with Alzheimer's disease.

While science continues to search for a medical breakthrough to effectively address this devastating brain condition, a growing number of studies point to the role non-pharmaceuticals can play in improving cognition and possibly even helping to keep Alzheimer’s at bay. One of those garnering interests is nitric oxide, a colorless gas primarily produced within the endothelial cells lining the body’s blood vessels.

Promising research shows that nitric oxide (NO) can help improve cognition and protect against dementia by enhancing neuronal communication, reducing inflammation, and supporting healthy blood flow in the brain. It also supports the brain’s ability to adapt and form new connections—a process vital for learning new things and storing memories. The problem is, the body’s production of NO declines with age, with a loss of up to 75 percent by age 70. What’s more, epidemiological investigations have found a link between this deficiency and Alzheimer’s disease in the elderly.

A new study in the World Academy of Sciences Journal reports that AGE can effectively enhance cognition by increasing NO’s bioavailability.

Kyolic AGE is the best-selling, odorless, aged garlic extract. Proven safe and effective, AGE and its constituents have been the subject of over 1000 published scientific articles that document its health benefits.
