HEALTH FOCUS

The eyes, ears and mouth are vital sensory organs that are closely connected to each other.

A radiant and vital appearance is often a reflection of a good nutrient supply. Healthy, soft skin, shiny hair, strong nails, firm connective tissue and collagen formation are not only dependent on the use of cosmetics, but in particular on a balanced supply of nutrients. Important factors such as biotin and vitamin C contribute to the maintenance of healthy skin, hair and nails as well as collagen formation. Due to its moisture-binding function, hyaluronic acid is an important component of connective tissue, the skin and the eyes.

The demands of modern life require high levels of energy and optimal performance. While periods of rest are crucial for restoring healthy energy levels, an optimised nutrient supply also naturally promotes mental and physical performance. Nutrients such as B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, vitamin C and iodine can all support energy production during periods of fatigue.

We offer a range of essential vitamins, minerals and plant extracts to support the three primary phases of women's health, including hormonal balance for the menstrual cycle, family planning and menopause.

Nutrients can play an important role in maintaining cognitive function and brain performance. Certain B vitamins are involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and steroid hormones and also support normal cell division. The same is true for the nervous system as a whole, where nutrients play important roles in maintaining normal nerve function by helping to form important neurotransmitters and maintain optimal signal transmission.

A strong, effective immune system depends on an adequate supply of important nutrients that play a central role in the production of immune cells, messengers and defence substances. Nutrients such as vitamins C, D, A, zinc and selenium, among others, can make a meaningful contribution to supporting normal immune function.

The excretory organs, which consist of renal lymphatics, the kidneys, liver and bladder, are responsible for metabolising, transporting and eliminating metabolic waste products as well as toxins through the intestines and bladder. Our body relies on their optimal functioning at all times.

Living a long life requires a healthy lifestyle - which includes a balanced, varied diet rich in nutrients - and many phytochemicals and vegetable oils. Micronutrients such as zinc, selenium, copper and manganese as well as vitamins B2, C and E help to protect the cells from oxidative stress.

Men undergo different hormonal cycles throughout their lives, which rely on maintaining a harmonious balance of various hormones. These cycles concern various issues during different phases of life, especially when trying to conceive children, such as sperm production, libido and prostate health.

When pregnant or breastfeeding, the body requires many additional nutrients to support foetal development. An adequate supply of micronutrients is particularly important during this time, both for the health of the mother and for the normal development of the child.

Nutritional requirements can vary depending on life situations and dietary habits. Individuals following vegetarian or vegan diets may sometimes lack essential nutrients like vitamin B12, iron, and specific amino acids. During pregnancy and childhood, the body's demand for various nutrients increases. Conversely, as we age, our ability to absorb nutrients decreases. At the same time, the body's natural production of important substances, such as coenzyme Q10, declines. Therefore, in these situations, it's often wise to consider taking nutritional supplements.

The metabolism refers to the entirety of processes that contribute to energy production and the biochemical processes involved in the synthesis, transformation and breakdown of bodily components.

Constant stress is a heavy physical burden that can lead to an imbalance in the nutrient balance. This can manifest itself in persistent tiredness, exhaustion and listlessness on both a physical and mental level. Nutrients such as B vitamins, zinc and manganese can help the body to compensate for stress and reduce fatigue.
