Product Description
Garlic is one of the few common super ingredients with both “evidence-based cardiovascular benefits” and “evidence-based immune support.” Nutralighting Garlic Extract uses authentic raw materials from Jinxiang, Shandong, standardized to dual indicators of allicin 1%-2% (HPLC) and alliin 0.6%-1.2%, combined with a low-garlic-odor process, helping your end products turn “blood pressure and lipid reduction” and “immune support” into a credible story.
Garlic Extract is refined from plant materials through a standardized process, with allicin 1%-2% (HPLC) and alliin 0.6%-1.2% to ensure stable levels of allicin and alliin, supporting immune, circulatory, and heart-protective functions, suitable for health supplements, functional foods, and personal care development. Sourced from authentic Jinxiang, Shandong raw materials, the extract uses low-temperature extraction to preserve allicin activity, providing stable standardized content and lower garlic odor, suitable for various dosage forms such as soft capsules and tablets.
Garlic Extract is one of the most widely used plant extracts globally, with an annual trade volume exceeding 1 billion USD. It is widely applied in cardiovascular health supplements, immune enhancers, and natural antimicrobial products.

Introduction to Plant Ingredients
The raw material of this product is the dried bulbs of garlic from the Liliaceae family, Allium sativum L. Mainly produced in Jinxiang, Shandong; Zhongmou, Henan; and Pizhou, Jiangsu. Among them, Jinxiang garlic in Shandong is known as the “Hometown of Chinese Garlic.” Included in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Garlic is both a seasoning and a traditional medicinal plant, with effects of detoxification, insecticidal, swelling, and diarrhea. Its main active ingredient, allicin, is catalyzed by alliinase when garlic is chopped or crushed.
Core Benefits
The following efficacy overview is based on published scientific research and traditional applications; specific efficacy should be evaluated comprehensively in combination with product dosage form and dosage.
Garlic extract has research support in cardiovascular health, can lower blood pressure, improve lipid profile, and inhibit platelet aggregation. Allicin has broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and inhibits various bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Multiple meta-analyses suggest that garlic supplements have research interest in immune and respiratory health. In terms of antioxidant properties, organosulfur compounds in garlic have the effect of scavenging free radicals.
