A good deal of evidence suggests beneficial effects of the regular dietary intake of garlic on mild hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Garlic seems to have anti-microbial and immunostimulating properties, enhance fibrinolytic activity, and exert favorable effects on platelet aggregation and adhesion. Standardised preparations guarantee exact dosing and minimize the problem of the strong odour of raw garlic. Thus, a traditional folk remedy has established its usefulness for many patients with less severe forms of cardiovascular disease as a medical drug with very few side effects. The available evidence gives rise to the hope that the list of indications may even be considerably extended in the future.
大量证据表明，日常饮食中经常摄入大蒜对轻度高血压和高脂血症有有益作用。大蒜似乎具有抗菌和免疫刺激特性，能增强纤维蛋白溶解活性，并对血小板聚集和黏附产生有利影响。标准化制剂可确保精确给药，并将生蒜强烈气味的问题降至最低。因此，一种传统民间疗法已成为一种副作用极少的药物，对许多病情较轻的心血管疾病患者有用。现有证据让人希望，未来适应证清单甚至可能大幅扩展。
