From the Manufacturer:
Garlic, High-Potency, SynerPro [Immune]. The only problem with getting garlic into the diet has always been the distinct odor it leaves on the breath. Now it is possible to manufacture odorless garlic. The question is, does it retain the potency of fresh garlic? Studies have shown that it doesn’t.
Nature’s Sunshine offers you the finest and most potent garlic on the market with a special coating that helps control the garlic’s odor. When broken open, these tablets have a strong garlic odor unlike “odorless” garlic products. Trade-secret processing and careful preparation of each tablet give NSP High-Potency Garlic a special locked-in freshness coating. It contains chlorophyll, which controls odor while assuring a long, effective shelf-life.
Because the tablet does not break down for absorption until it reaches the small intestine, you receive the full nutritional value of garlic without the undesirable taste. Moreover, comparing total allicin potential (TAP) with other leading brands shows that Nature’s Sunshine leads the pack. NSP High-Potency Garlic is valued above all others for its great potency and superb quality. One 400 mg tablet equals 1,200 mg of fresh garlic, roughly equal to one clove.
