BIOACTIVES | MUSHROOMS

Adaptogens are biologically active phytochemicals which enhance plants' abilities to adapt; indeed, the term is actually derived from the Latin word "adaptare" meaning "to adapt." Countless phytochemicals have been known to traditional herbalists around the world for decades.

Freshwater and seawater algae are considered to be among the most powerful superfoods. Their intense green colour results from chlorophyll, a natural pigment common to all plant cells. Chlorophyll allows plant cells to carry out photosynthesis.

Antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc and selenium are important compounds which support the body in protecting cells against oxidative stress. Fresh foods, including algae, fruits and berries, contain a whole range of valuable supporting phytochemicals, such as carotenoids, polyphenols and flavonoids.

Our essential oils in capsule form deliver the valuable phytochemicals of key herbs and spices. The essential oils are embedded in a fibre-rich inulin matrix from chicory, which enables the ingredients to gently pass through the stomach. Our purely plant-based ingredients maintain the highest purity and quality. Also available as 100% natural essential oils in drop form from the world's top cultivation areas, exclusively obtained from aromatic plants, fruits and resins.

Chemical messengers are important substances in the body, primarily becaue they fulfil the task of exchanging information between cells and thus transmitting signals. Hormones and neurotransmitters are two well-known messengers produced by the body. 5-HTP, GABA and melatonin fall into this essential category.

DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) is an organic solvent that can be derived from tree resin. DMSO is converted into dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2), which corresponds to the supplement methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). A rich source of organic sulphur.

High-quality phytochemical formulations, triple fermented over a period of three months. Particularly rich in beneficial compounds and highly bioavailable due to the carefully controlled fermentation process.

Skin and joints often work in tandem to support the body – so do the substances that contribute to their maintenance by supporting cartilage and bones.

Plants have been an integral part of our diet for thousands of years. As well as providing us with nourishing macronutrients, they also contain essential micronutrients and valuable secondary phytochemicals. We enhance the concentrated power of plants with the help of our high-quality extraction processes using water and/or food-grade alcohol.

Propolis is the resin produced by bees which protects the hive against bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms. Propolis is responsible for staving off illness within the densely populated hive, defending it against intruders and for preventing spoilage – even in hot and humid environments. Since the combinations of polyphenols in propolis, as well as the concentrations thereof, are completely dependent on the local botanical diversity, propolis from different regions and continents is distinctly different.

Sugar isn't always merely a sweetener; certain types, such as those offered here, serve crucial functions in the body. Due to their lower glycaemic index, functional sugars are also suitable as an alternative to normal household sugar and have unique profiles and benefits. Our functional sugars come from completely plant-based sources; non-GMO and no additives.

Pure tinctures of select plants and herbs from a family business in the heart of Tuscany. Raw plant materials are wildcrafted or sourced from renowned cultivation areas around the world. Gentle extractions using alcohol from beetroot molasses; no glycerine.

Functional mushrooms are special edible mushrooms that have been valued for thousands of years for their special ingredients. In addition to their widespread use in Asia, they have also been known in Europe for centuries, for example from the famous discovery of the ice mummy Oetzi in South Tyrol (3200 BC), alongside whom functional mushrooms were found.
