Licorice Root Tincture (1:4) What is Licorice? Licorice belongs to the legume family. Like all plants of this genus, licorice bears the characteristic blossoms, varying from white to bluish-violet. This herbaceous plant is found in its wild form across Europe, North Africa, Asia, Australia, and both North and South America. It prefers loose, humus-rich soil and thrives particularly well in sunny locations. Under optimal conditions, licorice can grow up to two meters tall and one meter wide. Its thick, fleshy roots penetrate the soil up to one meter deep, while rhizomes extend outward up to eight meters. Our products are made exclusively from licorice roots, as they contain the broadest spectrum of active compounds. We ensure absolute purity and sustainability in the sourcing of our raw materials. The long tradition of this healing plant As early as ancient Egypt, licorice was revered and used as a medicinal plant. Theophrastus of Eresos, in 350 BC, described its beneficial effects on the upper respiratory tract. According to him, licorice was helpful for conditions ranging from persistent cough to chronic bronchial hypersensitivity. Indigenous peoples of the Americas also valued the versatile effects of licorice. They used it not only as a sweetener but also appreciated its roots as a tonic. It was especially used for digestive issues, toothaches, sore throats, as well as stomach and intestinal discomfort. For around 3,000 years, licorice has also been a staple in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Known there as Gan Cao, the sweet roots are primarily used to strengthen Qi – the vital life energy that must flow in harmony throughout the body. According to TCM, toxins, inflammation, and infections disrupt this life energy, which is why licorice is prescribed for a variety of imbalances. In Ayurveda, the sweet-tasting root is also highly valued, especially for its cooling and revitalizing properties. Experienced practitioners use licorice to combat fatigue and to balance the body’s energy points, particularly benefiting the liver, bladder, and lungs. In the Western world, licorice is best known as the base for licorice candy. Today, its compounds are well-researched, providing detailed insight into its composition. The roots are rich in triterpenoid saponins and contain particularly high concentrations of glycyrrhizin, a natural compound believed to have anti-inflammatory and protective effects, especially for mucous membranes. Other important constituents include flavonoids and coumarin. Flavonoids are antioxidants that support the body’s defense system, while coumarin is regarded as calming, antispasmodic, and anti-inflammatory. Licorice is also referenced in the book “Herbal Antivirals” by Stephen Harrod Buhner.

Ginger Tablets, 450 mg Active Ingredient Tablet size → 16mm * 8mm Active ingredient per tablet → 450mg Ginger Tablets made from ground root What is Ginger (Zingiber officinale)? As a spicy and warming culinary ingredient, ginger is almost considered “old news” in our regions. But did you know that the root holds far greater potential? Not only Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), but even the personal physician of Emperor Nero was already aware of the beneficial effects of this healing plant. Hand on heart – would you recognize a ginger plant? Probably not, because with its thick stem and long foliage leaves, the plant, which can grow up to 150 cm tall, resembles reeds more than anything else. The chances of seeing a real ginger plant in Europe are also quite slim. On the one hand, the herbaceous plant prefers a warm, humid climate and is therefore mainly found in the tropics and subtropics. On the other hand, wild ginger has become rare on our planet. To preserve the scarce natural populations, we use only ginger from controlled organic cultivation. Our ginger roots are grown according to strict quality standards, carefully dried, finely ground, and gently formed into tablets. Ginger in TCM, Roman & Monastic Medicine Traditional Chinese Medicine has long relied on the unique effects of ginger. As you may know, in TCM all healing plants and foods are classified according to their properties. Ginger is considered warming, pungent, and aromatic. It is assigned to the functional circuits of the lungs, spleen, stomach, intestines, heart, and uterus. Based on this classification, ginger is used in TCM for circulatory disorders, nausea, vomiting, bloating, digestive weakness, diarrhea, constipation, coughs, colds, sore throats, and menstrual discomfort. In addition, Chinese practitioners are convinced that this healing plant can balance and move Qi (life energy). By the way, the effects of ginger are not only known in Chinese folk medicine. Alexander the Great also helped spread this knowledge in Europe. The Romans, too, were fascinated by its effects. After extensive studies, Emperor Nero’s personal physician recommended that all soldiers carry ginger with them at all times, as he was convinced they had a versatile all-rounder for their home pharmacy. Ginger contains valuable constituents such as: beta-bisabolene and ar-curcumene, D-camphor, geranial, neral, linalool, zingiberol, gingerols, shogaols, essential oil, magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium, and phosphorus. Ginger Tablets without harmful additives This dietary supplement contains no artificial colorings, no flavorings, no preservatives, no gelatin, no added sugars, no lactose, and no gluten. Ingredients IngredientContent per daily doseInfo Ginger – root (Zingiber officinale) about 1800 mg Organic raw material Additionally, 2 commonly used and safe cellulose excipients with the abbreviations MCC / HPMC for tablet stability, also of purely plant origin, and a very small amount (only a few thousandths by weight) of the likewise common and safe substance magnesium stearate. Recommended Use 4 tablets per day with sufficient liquid. It is better not to take all 4 tablets at once, but spread throughout the day (e.g., two tablets in the morning, one at midday, and one in the evening) with sufficient liquid. Taking them during or right after meals is generally not recommended, i.e., it is preferable to take them before meals. However, this recommendation is not strict. Notes Dietary supplements are generally not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. Store protected from heat, dry, and out of the reach of children.
