About this supplement

Enteric-coated garlic is a specialized form of garlic that has been coated to withstand the acidic environment of the stomach, allowing it to be released in the intestines. This coating helps to preserve the active compounds in garlic, such as allicin, which are believed to contribute to its health benefits.
