Dr. Mercola Fermented Black Garlic Capsules
Garlic shows up in kitchens and traditional wellness practices going back centuries, but raw garlic comes with a catch: the breath. Dr. Mercola Fermented Black Garlic gives you aged black garlic in a capsule, so you get the antioxidant appeal without the odor or aftertaste. Each serving provides 800 mg of fermented black garlic bulb and extract powder.
What fermentation does to garlic
When fresh garlic is aged in a warm, humid environment, it slowly turns into a soft, chewy black clove with a sweet, almost balsamic flavor. This is the Maillard reaction at work. During aging, the allicin in raw garlic converts into S-allyl-cysteine, or SAC, an antioxidant compound. Dr. Mercola lists the SAC amount (1.2 mg per serving) right on the label, which many garlic supplements skip.
Why people choose black garlic over raw
Raw garlic (Allium sativum) has a long history in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean food traditions, where aged garlic was prized and sometimes added to sweets and drinks. Fermenting concentrates more antioxidant compounds than the raw bulb. If you would rather not chop garlic into every meal, or you simply do not want garlic breath all day, capsules are a straightforward way to keep it in your routine.

- Supports heart and cardiovascular health as part of a healthy lifestyle*
- Supports healthy immune function*
- Helps support cellular health and healthy aging*
How it fits your routine
Two capsules a day before a meal is the suggested serving. One honest note: black garlic is a food-based supplement, not a quick fix, so it makes the most sense as a small, steady habit rather than something you reach for only now and then. It pairs naturally with the rest of an antioxidant supplement routine and a diet that already leans on whole foods. If you are not sure how it fits your goals, our team is glad to talk it through before you order.

FAQs About Dr. Mercola Fermented Black Garlic Capsules
Q: Will Dr. Mercola Fermented Black Garlic give me garlic breath? A: No. The garlic is fermented and aged before it goes into the capsule, so you get the antioxidant appeal of garlic without the lingering odor or aftertaste that comes with raw cloves.
Q: What is S-allyl-cysteine (SAC) and how much is in each serving? A: SAC is an antioxidant compound that forms as garlic ferments and ages. Each two-capsule serving lists 1.2 mg of SAC right on the label, which many garlic supplements do not publish.
Q: How much black garlic is in a serving, and how do I take it? A: Each serving of two capsules provides 800 mg of fermented black garlic bulb and extract powder. The suggested use for adults is two capsules daily before a meal. One bottle holds 60 capsules, or 30 servings.
Q: Is fermented black garlic better than eating raw garlic? A: Fermenting and aging concentrates more antioxidant compounds than the raw bulb, and it converts allicin into SAC. Capsules are also an easy way to keep garlic in your routine without chopping it into every meal or dealing with the smell.
Q: Is this product non-GMO, gluten free, and soy free? A: Yes. Dr. Mercola Fermented Black Garlic is non-GMO, gluten free, and soy free, with a capsule made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and organic rice hull as the only other ingredients.
