Our yam extract (Dioscorea villosa) is obtained exclusively from the above-ground parts of the plant. The valuable ingredients are then extracted using only water and ethanol and never come into contact with other solvents or extracting agents such as acetone or methanol. The standardised process produces a high-quality extract with a guaranteed content of 20% diosgenins.
The only other ingredient we use is pure natural premium gum arabic grown without pesticides. In contrast to the usual synthetic filler microcrystalline cellulose, which is mixed with nanoparticles, we use a natural, high-fibre food. The soluble fibre serves as a food source for bifido- and lactobacteria in the intestine. Our gum arabic comes from climate-neutral, sustainable, resource-conserving and fair cultivation.
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. We then package this product in environmentally friendly amber glass.
