Immunity and Vitality
Imagine that your body has its own personal bodyguard, who is constantly on the lookout, protecting your cells from damage, ageing and disease. This is precisely the role played by vitamin E. This powerful antioxidant, which is often overlooked in the shadow of the more popular vitamin C, is in fact absolutely key to overall vitality.
Immunity and Vitality
When we hear the term ‘vitamin D’, most of us think of healthy bones, a stronger immune system or getting a tan in the summer. For the female body, however, this unassuming nutrient means much more. Doctors are now confirming a surprising fact: vitamin D behaves more like a hormone than a conventional vitamin within the body.

When we hear the words ‘liquorice’, many of us immediately think of the distinctive taste of black liquorice from our childhood. However, this unassuming plant, scientifically known as Glycyrrhiza glabra, holds much more than just nostalgic memories of sweets. For thousands of years, it has been a cornerstone of traditional Chinese, Indian and Greek medicine. Today, it is making a major comeback – in the form of highly effective dietary supplements.

Digestion and Detox
Do you suffer from an upset stomach, bloating or irregular digestion? At the chemist’s, you’ll probably be recommended one of the two most popular supplements: probiotics or digestive enzymes.

Acerola, also known as the Barbados (West Indian) cherry, is an exotic fruit shrub that occasionally grows to the size of a tree (2–5 metres). This evergreen species, native to the tropical regions of South and Central America, is known not only for its attractive appearance but, above all, for its unique properties and high vitamin content. The acerola fruit is a small drupe weighing up to 15 g, which resembles a cherry in shape but has a much more sour taste. It ripens extremely quickly – in just 23 days – and is gaining attention thanks to its tart flavour, which gradually becomes sweeter. Interestingly, the rule ‘the riper, the better’ does not apply to acerola, as it is the less ripe fruits that contain the highest levels of nutrients. Acerola can be found under the Latin names Malpighia glabra, emarginata and punicifolia. It contains an extremely high amount of vitamin C, which even exceeds that found in rose hips.
Harmony
Everyone really got on your nerves; the journey home was like something out of the apocalypse, and at home, instead of peace and quiet, there was more tension and stress. This is what some of our days are like. There are many solutions, but only a few are the right ones in the long run. Because alcohol really does help to calm your nerves and see things from a completely different perspective – though sometimes from a diabolical one, not a positive one. Soft drugs and medication can help you switch off, but they don’t address the root of your problem.

Harmony
You know how it is – we don’t always manage to simply ‘switch off’ and fall asleep. A gentle sip of herbal tea, which soothes both mind and body, offers relief, transforming restlessness into balance and tension into calm. When our thoughts quieten in the evening and we settle into the comfort of our own home, it’s the perfect time for a moment to ourselves – a time that promotes deep, undisturbed sleep.
Immunity and Vitality
We probably all have a good supply of medicines at home in case we catch a cold, or even the flu. It’s the same every single year. The temperature drops, the weather turns damp and chilly, and the viral infections start to spread. But we’re prepared! Celaskon, various cough syrups, paracetamol… A box (or even a large box) of all sorts of medicines will sort it out, won’t it? And if not, then whilst we’re coughing, grumbling and lying in bed, we solemnly promise ourselves that we’ll finally start hardening ourselves to the cold. As soon as the illness has passed...
Beauty and Skin
You know how it is – the alarm goes off, you open your eyes, but you stay in bed. Even after seven hours’ sleep, you don’t feel energised. In the mirror, you see dark circles under your eyes; your skin is dry and tired, and you’re developing bruises and tiny broken capillaries. Is your immune system not working as it should, and does every virus seem to find you? If you’re thinking, ‘It’s just stress; it’s normal to feel like this’, well… no, you don’t have to feel like this… You’re missing something, and it might not be magnesium or another coffee. It’s a vitamin that isn’t listed on yoghurt pots, nor has it taken social media by storm just yet. And yet your body craves it every day: it’s vitamin P, better known as bioflavonoids – natural plant compounds that:
Beauty and Skin
It is no coincidence that the name ‘biotin’ (vitamin B7) derives from the Greek ‘bios’ (βίος), which means ‘life’. Because it is precisely life, vitality and a healthy glow that this vitamin can breathe into your skin, hair and nails. If you give it a chance, they will truly come to life… quite literally. Dull will become radiant, brittle will become strong, and tired will be full of vitality (every woman’s dream). And this is by no means a placebo effect, but a reality backed by science. Studies confirm that biotin is important for keratin metabolism and enzyme activity, and that it influences blood glucose levels. It is a vitamin that provides the body with exactly what it needs from within to make a visible difference on the outside.

Calcium and magnesium are a dynamic duo that orchestrate the harmony of your health, from your bones through your muscles to your nervous system. They work synergistically to support various physiological functions, including cardiovascular health. CalMag is the ‘key’ not only to health, but also to vitality.

Another vitamin in the B-complex group is vitamin B5 – pantothenic acid. It is both an acid and a vitamin. It plays an important role in metabolism (the conversion of substances) during the formation of coenzyme A. It is essential for the production of haemoglobin – the blood pigment that transports oxygen and CO₂ from the lungs to the organs and back.

Do you wake up feeling weighed down even before you’ve opened your laptop? Morning anxiety, irritability at routine emails and a loss of motivation for projects you used to enjoy... Does this sound familiar? Many successful people, managers and entrepreneurs automatically attribute these feelings to impending burnout. However, they often fail to realise that their nervous system has simply been running ‘on credit’ for a long time, and that the problem may have a clear biochemical basis. It isn’t always just a psychological issue. Often, it’s simply a lack of fuel for your brain.

When we talk about plants that have shaped modern medicine, few have left such a significant mark as the wild yam (Dioscorea villosa). This climbing plant with a woody root did not become famous for its taste, but for its unique chemical profile. Its true value lies in the molecules that literally ushered in the era of modern endocrinology and synthetic hormones.
Energy
B vitamins are among the most important nutrients for our bodies – literally an ‘energy drink’ – and their complex effects influence energy levels, immunity and the nervous system, as well as the quality of our skin, hair and nails. The B-complex is the term used for the group of B vitamins, which are water-soluble and cannot be stored in the body (with the exception of B12), so it is essential to replenish them regularly, as a deficiency leads to a wide range of problems, whilst any excess is simply excreted from the body. Dr Lucullus’s Vitamin B-complex is unique in that it consists of eleven vitamins, working tirelessly for your health and ready to win even the toughest battle.
