3 Nutrients for Healthy Aging
Stay ahead of Father Time. Healthy aging means maintaining a “with-it” brain, a healthy heart and an active lifestyle—no matter your age. Healthy Aging Powder includes taurine to promote cardiovascular health. We’ve included lithium to promote mood health. Finally, we added a special, standardized wheat germ extract that’s been studied to help maintain memory and cognitive health.
What’s in Healthy Aging Powder?
Taurine
Clinical studies suggest that taurine can help support cardiovascular health and help maintain already-healthy blood pressure. Furthermore, studies suggest that higher intake of taurine is associated with healthy aging—but taurine levels decline with age.
Lithium
Lithium intake is associated with healthy mood. Higher levels of lithium in drinking water have also been associated with a healthy lifespan.
Spermidine
Studies suggest that spermidine, a nutrient derived from a standardized wheat germ extract, can help encourage memory performance, help maintain memory health, and support healthy aging.

Heart health, cholesterol & blood pressure support
Aged Black Garlic is the perfect complement to a heart-friendly lifestyle. Our once-daily formula delivers a clinically studied dose of 500 mg of aged black garlic extract to support overall cardiovascular health.
What is Aged Black Garlic?
Get to the heart of garlic’s cardiovascular benefits with this aged black garlic extract supplement. Aged black garlic has been clinically studied to help maintain already-healthy blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. This once-daily formula delivers 500 mg of aged black garlic extract, containing 2.5 mg of S-allyl-cysteine. Vegetarian, non-GMO, gluten free.
Feast on garlic’s clinically studied blood pressure and cholesterol health support benefits, in this once-daily supplement.
Aged Black Garlic Benefits
- Helps maintain already-healthy blood pressure
- Encourages already-healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels
- Supports overall cardiovascular health
Better with age: black garlic benefits
Garlic is good for your heart. One of the reasons for this is a compound called S-allyl-cysteine, or SAC. Aged garlic extract, which is a source of S-allyl-cysteine, has been clinically studied to support heart health, but it’s found in relatively small amounts in raw garlic (so you can’t count on your pesto to offer these benefits). Interestingly, aging the garlic increases the amount of SAC. Another excellent effect of the aging process: it reduces or eliminates the “garlic” odor found in some other garlic supplements.
Clinical Studies
In a randomized, placebo-controlled study, healthy adults took 500 mg of a garlic extract standardized to provide 2.5 mg of S-allyl cysteine. Blood lipids like cholesterol and triglycerides were measured, as well as blood pressure and fasting blood sugar levels. The group taking SAC-enriched garlic extract experienced support for maintaining normal triglyceride levels, LDL cholesterol, and total cholesterol, as well as support for maintaining normal blood pressure and fasting glucose levels after 12 weeks.
FAQ
What is in Aged Black Garlic?
This product contains 500 mg of a trademarked aged garlic extract that has been standardized to 2.5 mg of S-allyl-cysteine (SAC). SAC, an active compound naturally occurring in garlic, supports cardiovascular health. Raw garlic typically contains low amounts of this compound, but the process of aging raw garlic boosts its SAC concentration per serving.
How is the garlic in this supplement aged?
Raw garlic is aged for 15-90 days and undergoes heat and humidity treatment processes to increase the amount of SAC. This process provides almost twice the amount compared to standard garlic formulations.
How does this supplement support heart health?
The Aged Black Garlic in this formula, which is standardized to 0.5% SAC, has been clinically studied to maintain already-healthy blood pressure, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, HDL, and fasting blood glucose.
Does this product have a strong odor or taste?
No. The aging process used in this extract helps reduce garlic's natural odor and taste, especially compared to standard garlic formulations. Additionally, as odor may accumulate in the free space of the product, there might be a stronger smell when first opening the bottle, but it should diminish with continued use.
When can I expect an effect?
In a study of people who took the garlic extract we use in Aged Black Garlic, positive effects were experienced as early as 28 days (with the best effects seen after 84 days). We suggest following the study duration to determine individual efficacy.
Can I take Aged Black Garlic if I have a sensitive stomach?
The aging process makes the garlic easier on the stomach, which is helpful for sensitive individuals. However, since all our biochemistries are unique, tolerance will depend from person to person. Choosing to take this product with a meal may also lessen any potential interactions in those with sensitive stomachs.
Who should take Aged Black Garlic?
Anyone looking for a once-daily garlic product to support overall cardiovascular health should try Aged Black Garlic.
How does Aged Black Garlic compare to your Optimized Garlic product? Should I take both?
Each of our garlic products are standardized and intended for different health needs. Aged Black Garlic is standardized to S-allyl-cysteine and is designed to promote heart health. Optimized Garlic is standardized to allicin potential and is intended to support healthy immune function. Those who want to maximize either of these health benefits can choose to take one or both of these products.
When is the best time to take Aged Black Garlic? Should it be taken before or after a meal?
This product can be taken any time of the day, with or without food, based on your preference.
Will this supplement interact with my medication?
There is no indication that the aged black garlic extract in this formula would negatively interact with prescription medications. However, if you take any prescription medications and want to know more about potential interactions when taking this supplement, you should discuss your concerns with your physician.
Has this product been tested for heavy metals, contaminants, and potency?
All our raw materials and finished products go through stringent testing to meet our high-quality standards. Testing is performed for heavy metals, microbes, disintegration, potency, and quantity of active ingredients in the finished product. Only when finished products meet Life Extension’s specifications are they released for production. A finished product Certificate of Analysis (COA) can be provided upon request for all our products.
Are there any major allergens in this product?
Aged Black Garlic does not contain any of the 9 major allergens required on the label under the Food Allergy Safety, Treatment, Education and Research (FASTER) Act. This means it is free of milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, sesame and soybeans.
Where is this product manufactured?

Zahler's 120/80 is a unique and powerful formula including well-researched and clinically studied ingredients known to support healthy blood pressure levels.
Zahler's 120/80 is an innovative formula which includes well-researched and clinically studied ingredients known to support healthy blood pressure levels, which are critical for cardiovascular health. High blood pressure can potentially lead to serious cardiovascular disease if left unchecked. An improvement in diet, lifestyle, and natural supplements can go a long way to managing high blood pressure. The powerful combination in the 120/80 formula together with a healthy diet and improved life habits promote healthy blood pressure levels and a healthy cardiovascular system.
Get the Numbers Right
If you’ve been to the doctor’s office recently, chances are you had your blood pressure measured and recorded. Checking your blood pressure is a routine part of every medical examination, and the reading is used to evaluate many aspects of your health, both general and specific. But what is blood pressure?
About Blood Pressure
In simple terms, blood pressure is the measurement of the force expended by your heart to keep blood flowing around your body. The upper number, or systolic pressure, is the pressure your heart uses to push the blood out. The lower number, or diastolic pressure, is the measurement of pressure between each heartbeat.
Ideally, your blood pressure reading should be below 120/80. But it’s a little more nuanced than that. Blood pressure can be too low, but that doesn’t happen often. Many adults, especially seniors, have blood pressure that is too high, called hypertension. Today, doctors will alert patients at the pre-hypertensive state to keep an eye on their blood pressure and work on lowering it through dietary and lifestyle changes. Prehypertension is defined as systolic pressure between 120- 139 and diastolic pressure between 80-89. Anything above that is considered high blood pressure and your doctor may prescribe medication.
You want to avoid that. Fortunately, it is possible to promote healthy blood pressure through dietary supplements and an emphasis on healthy living.
Keep it at 120/80
While it is possible to lower your blood pressure by changing your diet, diet changes alone do not always bring about fast enough results. That’s why a dietary supplement like 120/80 from Advanced Nutrition by Zahler can be helpful in supporting and maintaining optimal blood pressure levels.
How Does 120/80 Work?
120/80 is a unique vitamin, mineral and herbal blend which can help support cardiovascular health and maintain normal blood pressure levels.
The principal ingredient, a Metabolaid® Blend of Hibiscus Flower Extract and Lemon Verbena Leaf Extract has been effective in lowering blood pressure and total cholesterol in randomized clinical trials. The two herbs can also support healthy body weight and blood lipids. It is believed that the phytochemicals, polyphenols and hibiscus acid are responsible for this. (NIH)
The Grape Seed Extract in 120/80 may reduce oxidative stress on blood vessels and encourage relaxed veins and arteries. Grape seed extract may help dilate blood vessels, which can lower blood pressure.
Pomegranate Fruit Extract is also an antioxidant which can lower blood pressure and supports a healthy inflammatory response; the pomegranate is considered a heart-healthy fruit. (PubMed)
Vitamin B6 and ocean water-derived Magnesium are crucial components of 120/80 as well. Most people do not ingest enough magnesium, a critical mineral which helps regulate many body systems. Magnesium can help blood vessels relax and supports adequate heart function. Vitamin B6 helps with proper absorption of magnesium so the body can experience these benefits more readily.
Blood pressure needs to be well regulated for every other bodily system to function well. 120/80 is a dietary supplement designed to support healthy blood pressure levels and cardiovascular function.
Product FAQs
If my blood pressure is only slightly elevated but I have a family history of high blood pressure, can I take the 120/80?
Yes, the 120/80 supports healthy blood pressure levels. This supplement can be taken to help maintain a healthy blood pressure.
If I am on medication for high blood pressure, can I use the 120/80?
Since the blood pressure medications lower blood pressure and 120/80 supports healthy blood pressure levels, we are concerned that when taking both the supplement and the medication at the same time, the blood pressure may go too low. Hence, it is crucial to be extremely careful in such a situation and to discuss taking this or any other supplement with your primary care physician. If your PCP recommends that you work with the 120/80, it's important to continuously monitor the blood pressure to ensure that it does not go too low. We also recommend discussing with your primary care physician if lowering the dose of medication is an option for you at all if the blood pressure drops. Please also note, supplements and medications should never be taken within the same two hours.

How It Works
glyNOcalyx™ is designed to support several important areas of cardiovascular wellness at the same time: blood pressure support, endothelial function, glycocalyx structural health, circulation, and nitric oxide production.
The endothelium is the thin inner lining of blood vessels. A healthy endothelium helps regulate vascular tone, circulation, and nitric oxide signaling. The endothelial glycocalyx is a delicate protective layer on the surface of the endothelium that plays an important role in vascular health and normal blood flow.
Black garlic extract supports cardiovascular health and nitric oxide-related pathways, while grape seed extract provides polyphenols that support antioxidant and vascular function. Fucoidan-polyphenol complex from brown seaweed is included for endothelial glycocalyx support, and melon juice concentrate contributes naturally occurring superoxide dismutase for antioxidant defense.
Together, these ingredients make glyNOcalyx™ a focused option for adults looking for endothelial glycocalyx support, healthy blood pressure support, blood flow support, nitric oxide support, and next-generation cardiovascular wellness.
Suggested Use
Take 1 tablet daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional.

Science
What is Berberine?
Berberine is an alkaloid found in plants like Goldenseal, Barberry, Oregon Grape and Goldthread. Alkaloids help plants protect themselves against predators and regulate their growth. They also offer benefits for the overall health of humans.*
Berberine has a rich history of use in traditional herbalism for a number of common purposes, especially to support blood sugar metabolism and promote healthy weight loss.* Modern research now bolsters what common wisdom told us about berberine.
There are numerous research studies that support Berberine's use as a dietary supplement. In a series of two double-blind studies, Berberine was found to be influential for healthy weight management.*1,2
What makes Enzymedica's Berberine better?
Berberine can be sourced from many plants, including Barberry and Goldenseal. Unfortunately, Goldenseal is an “at risk” plant due to overharvesting in the wild and its use is strongly discouraged by plant conservationists.
The form we use comes from Berberis aristata, commonly called Indian barberry, which grows abundantly, is naturally sustainable and rich in valuable phytochemicals.
Our Berberine is also standardized at 95%. This provides a consistent amount of Berberine with each and every serving. In addition, our capsules are enteric-coated for targeted release. In the GI tract, berberine binds with other berberine molecules to form insoluble compounds that can’t be absorbed. Our formula uses targeted-delivery capsules to eliminate that issue.
