Odourless garlic provides a more practical way of obtaining the many health benefits of garlic. Garlic health benefits and medicinal properties have long been utilised - garlic has been considered a herbal "wonder drug", with a reputation for preventing everything from the common cold and flu to the Plague! Garlic is said to support cardiovascular health and immune function, and is used by some to treat the symptoms of acne, and to assist in managing high cholesterol levels. Modern science has shown that garlic is a powerful antibiotic, albeit broad-spectrum rather than targeted. The body does not appear to build up resistance to the garlic, so its positive effects continue long-term. Studies have shown that garlic - especially aged garlic - can have a powerful antioxidant effect. Antioxidants help to protect the body against damaging free radicals. An extraction process is used for odourless garlic, which allows for the preservation of the active constituents and nutritional value, whilst also reducing odours.

The chia plant is an annual that belongs to the mint family. Chia seeds are considered ‘superfoods’ for their high content of omega-3 fatty acids, and α-linolenic acid. They are also rich in protein, fat, dietary fibre, and essential minerals. Chia seeds slow down the speed the body converts carbohydrates into simple sugars, and swell to create a feeling of fullness, and are therefore ideal for assisting in weight management.

Chitosan is derived from chitin, which is found in the exoskeletons of shellfish such as crabs and prawns. It is similar to plant fibre in that it cannot be digested by the human body. Chitosan is a fat blocker, absorbing four to six times its weight in fat as it passes through the digestive tract. It thereby flushes fat out of the body before it becomes metabolised and stored as excess body weight.
