GLP-1s for Seniors: Aged Garlic Extract

Is aged garlic actually effective — or just another supplement trend? In this video, I take a calm, evidence-based look at what clinical studies really show about aged garlic and cardiometabolic health.

In this episode of GLP-1s for Seniors, I take a careful, evidence-based look at aged garlic extract — a supplement that’s been quietly studied in randomized controlled trials for decades, particularly in adults with cardiovascular and metabolic risk.

And if you are wondering how I arrive at the science, here a link to a video that explains:    • Special Edition: The Evidence Ladder - GLP...  

This is not folklore garlic.
Not “eat a clove and hope for the best.”

We’re talking about a standardized preparation used in clinical research, with measurable compounds like S-allylcysteine that are well tolerated and reliably absorbed.

In this video, we explore what the science actually shows — including modest but meaningful effects on blood pressure, endothelial function, inflammation, oxidative stress, and even the progression of coronary artery calcification. We also talk about why aged garlic extract is fundamentally different from raw garlic, how it’s been dosed in trials, and what safety considerations matter most for seniors.

As always, this channel focuses on biology, physiology, and the long game — not hype, fear, or shortcuts. I also share my weekly GLP-1 journey check-in and discuss how supplements like this may complement broader metabolic strategies, including GLP-1 therapy, under medical supervision.

This is not medical advice.
It’s a scientific conversation — grounded in data, curiosity, and humility.

Stay curious, and be at peace.
