Product description
Echinacea purpurea ('red coneflower') is a plant native to North America. This plant is also well known in Europe and is widely used to support the body's defenses and healthy airways. The part of the plant most commonly used in herbal preparations is the root. It contains a broad spectrum of active ingredients such as polysaccharides, alkylamides and chicory acid. Alkylamides are fat-soluble components of the root. Polysaccharides and chicory acid, on the other hand, are water-soluble components. The active components of plants are mostly located intracellularly. However, plant cells are surrounded by strong cell walls (made of cellulose) that are not digestible for humans. This makes it necessary to extract the active ingredients from the plant through extraction so that they become more available to the human body. An herbal preparation that contains the whole herb (and no extract) will therefore be less effective. The active ingredients in echinacea are both lipophilic and hydrophilic. The extraction method used for this product ensures that both types of components are extracted from the root. Unique extraction method The PhytoPrevent extraction method is ideally suited to obtain a high-quality extract. Characteristic of this patented method is the use of a solvent consisting of water and alcohol in a constantly changing ratio. This ensures that both the water-soluble and the fat-soluble components are extracted, so that the properties of the original plant are preserved as much as possible in the end product. This is desirable because much is still unknown about which substances are responsible for the effect of the herb and because part of the effect may be based on synergy between the various plant components. Another advantage of PhytoPrevent is that only organically grown crops are used. Furthermore, the end product is free of alcohol and the herbal extracts are freeze-dried, so that they are not exposed to high temperatures during the production process. Organic The active ingredients of organic food supplements are guaranteed to be of natural origin and not synthetically manufactured. In addition, the environment, animals and people are taken into account as much as possible during production. What is meant by this is defined in various regulations. Among other things, no chemical pesticides, fertilizers or genetically modified organisms are used. The Skal Biocontrol institute checks whether the regulations are complied with and whether a product may be called organic. Organic products can be recognized by the NL-BIO-01 code and the European organic quality mark.
