Will Garlic tabs help?

Answered by Dr. Benard Shehu (26 minutes later)

Brief Answer: Monitor blood pressure... Detailed Answer: Hi, Once again, your cholesterol levels are not high enough to start taking supplements. That's why I did not advise to take them. Anyway, garlic tabs can help, but, I advise to monitor blood pressure as it might cause low blood pressure. All the best! Dr.Benard
