For our blend of white ginseng, Ginkgo biloba and gotu kola, we use only select plant parts of the highest quality, from native terroir.
Our white ginseng comes from Korea, where our renowned premium ginseng producer grows and processes it under conditions as close to wild growth as possible. After 3 to 5 years of growth, the root is sun-dried and gently milled into a fine powder. This preserves a standardised content of 2% ginsenosides, of which 22.9% are Rb1 and 18.6% are Rg1.
Our Ginkgo biloba extract (45:1) also comes from an original growing region in a nature reserve in southern China. After harvest, the collected leaves are gently extracted using food-grade alcohol and clear water at a ratio of 45:1. The result is an especially concentrated extract with 26.86% flavone glycosides, against a reference range of 22 to 27%, and 6.77% ginkgolides, with an exceptionally low ginkgolic acid content.
Our gotu kola plants come from indigenous terroir in India. After harvest between January and April, they are gently extracted with clear water and food-grade ethanol to protect their active compounds. This yields a pure 6:1 extract with a standardised content of 10% asiaticosides.
For the capsule shells we use custom-made HPMC capsules that, unlike most other HPMC and pullulan capsules on the market, are 100% free from controversial additives such as carrageenans and PEG. For packaging, we use glass instead of plastic.
As the only other ingredient, we use premium acacia fibre (gum arabic) as a natural bulking agent, from cultivation without chemical plant protection products. Unlike microcrystalline cellulose, the synthetic bulking agent commonly used and often containing nanoparticles, this gives us another natural food ingredient as filler. The soluble fibre in acacia fibre is pleasant to take and also serves as a food source for bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the gut.
