INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Garlic supplementation lowers total cholesterol in adults with high cholesterol?

Unclear. A garlic meta-analysis on total cholesterol and LDL exists but its authors call for more high-quality verification, and a small 30-day ginger-garlic tablet trial in hyperlipidemic patients and a meta-analysis in NAFLD patients report lower total cholesterol. These cover only specific populations and are hedged, so they partially support the claim without settling it for adults with high cholesterol generally.
