Early on, Wakunaga recognized the benefits of probiotics for improved digestive and immune health with its Kyo-Dophilus probiotics. Its innovative plant-based supplement Kyo-Green line was developed as a way to increase intake of green nutrients. Kyo-Dophilus and Kyo-Green are legacy brands with over 30 years of distribution.
Wakunaga’s garlic is organically grown using sustainable farming techniques, including crop rotation to minimize soil degradation and foster healthier soil. Packaging relies on recyclable plastic or glass bottles, while labels and boxes are printed with soy-based inks.
Aged Garlic Extract is different from the pungent garlic cloves used for cooking. The proprietary process of creating AGE increases garlic’s antioxidant potential. The process converts harsh and unstable organosulfur compounds into the odorless, non-irritating, and bioavailable compounds that are responsible for AGE’s numerous health benefits.

A study conducted by the University of Florida found that high-potency AGE can be very beneficial during the cold and flu season. (1)
Clinical trials show that AGE can minimize the progression of plaque buildup that contributes to coronary artery calcification, supporting arterial health. (2, 3)
Findings in the journal
show that AGE effectively supports healthy systolic and diastolic blood pressure in people with uncontrolled blood pressure challenges.

A commitment to science, clinical studies and ongoing research is a commitment to the health of your customers by providing products that are proven to be scientifically safe and efficacious.
• Aged Garlic Extract (AGE) provides cardiovascular benefits that include supporting normal blood pressure and cholesterol and maintaining arterial health. It also may play a role in immunity, blood sugar control and liver support, either alone or when combined with other targeted nutrients.
• Three probiotic strains in Wakunaga’s probiotic line are shown to favorably impact the microbial balance in the intestines, promote good digestion, enhance immune function, and may promote digestive comfort for certain conditions.
