Based on our knowledge of atherosclerosis, we developed anti-atherosclerotic drugs. Two-year treatment with Allicor (garlic powder) has a direct anti-atherosclerotic effect on carotid atherosclerosis in asymptomatic men.

The phytoestrogen-rich drug karinat (garlic powder, extract of grape seeds, green tea leaves, hop cones, ?-carotene, ?-tocopherol, and ascorbic acid) prevents the development of carotid atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women. Thus, our basic findings were successfully translated into clinical practice.... |
