TL;DR

The results suggest that this garlic powder preparation may be of some clinical use in subjects with mild hypertension, but there is still insufficient evidence to recommend it as a routine clinical therapy for the treatment of hypertensive subjects.

Abstract

The results suggest that this garlic powder preparation may be of some clinical use in subjects with mild hypertension. However, there is still insufficient evidence to recommend it as a routine clinical therapy for the treatment of hypertensive subjects. More-rigorously designed and analysed trials are needed.
