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.

In today’s fast-paced world, our memory and concentration are really put to the test. We often think that the occasional lapse in memory is simply a natural part of ageing, stress or overwork. The truth, however, is that our brain is an organ that consumes a huge amount of energy and is extremely sensitive to the nutrients we provide it with. It functions as an extremely complex system, and if it lacks essential building blocks and high-quality nutrients, its performance begins to decline and we find ourselves unable to remember where we’ve put our keys.

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.

You may know it as an undemanding annual with bright yellow, orange and red flowers, which sprawls profusely along fences and in gardens. However, the greater nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) is much more than just a feast for the eyes. In herbalism and natural medicine, this plant, native to South America, is regarded as one of the most effective natural remedies.

Does this sound familiar? You put in a tough workout, give it your all at the gym or on the running track, and look forward to seeing progress. Instead, though, the next day brings extreme tiredness, muscle soreness so bad you can’t even walk down the stairs, and the feeling that your body simply can’t keep up with the recovery.

When we hear the word ‘zinc’, most of us immediately think of a strong immune system, fighting acne, or healthy hair and nails. But did you know that this trace element is absolutely vital for your digestive system? Without zinc, your body wouldn’t be able to break down food properly and absorb the essential nutrients from it.
Immunity and Vitality
When we hear the term ‘dietary supplement’, most of us immediately think of vitamin C, magnesium or protein. However, there is one substance that often goes unnoticed, even though it is literally essential for the functioning of every single cell in the human body. We’re talking about lecithin.

Vitamins are like tiny superhero molecules that we give our bodies as a dietary supplement. Whether it’s for our immune system, firm skin or energy for the day, we couldn’t do without them. But when you swallow a vitamin tablet, have you ever wondered what it’s actually made of?

The liver in the human body works tirelessly 24 hours a day, cleansing the blood of toxins, metabolising medicines and processing fats from food. However, for this complex mechanism to function flawlessly, it needs the right building blocks. One of the absolutely most important of these is choline. Although the body can produce small amounts of it itself, without sufficient intake from the diet we run the risk of fatty liver and inflammation. Let’s take a look at exactly how choline protects the liver and why it should be a part of your daily routine.

It sounds like an ingredient in a magic potion from a fantasy film, or something you might find in a wicked witch’s cauldron. However, ‘devil’s claw’ (scientifically known as Harpagophytum procumbens) is no magic at all, but a real plant with a fascinating history and even more intriguing effects on the human body.

If you haven’t heard of the European white elm, you’re not alone. This tree isn’t one of the typical species found in our forests, but in the field of natural medicine and dietary supplements, it’s a real treasure with a long history. Whilst the elm looks like a fairly ordinary tree, its true power lies beneath the surface – more precisely, in its inner bark.

Aromatic, spicy and unmistakable. When a cold is coming on, most of us automatically reach for a cup of hot tea with fresh ginger, honey and lemon. But did you know that this knobbly underground stem gem harbours properties that go far beyond treating a cold?

If you ask any athlete (especially endurance athletes) what nutritional supplement they always have with them for competitions, the most common answer will be "magnesium". Magnesium is definitely one of the most important minerals for our body. It is a so-called "deficiency" mineral because we excrete it from the body during excessive exertion, but also when we are not exercising! Just living in a noisy, stressful, demanding environment is enough...

Apple cider vinegar is one of the most popular natural products with a wide range of health benefits. Apple cider vinegar has been sought after for centuries for its health effects, including promoting digestion, regulating weight, maintaining stable blood sugar levels, and improving cardiovascular health.

Reishi, a mushroom used as far back as 4,000 years ago. The divine mushroom of immortality – in the past, it was believed to be able to revive even the dead. It has a particularly important place in Chinese medicine (under the name lingzhi), where it was first mentioned in writing 200 years before Christ. An entire army was assigned to search for it, because the Chinese imperial court believed that it could be used to mix an elixir of immortality. The Slovak name probably does not mean much to you - Leskokôrovka hnedočervená, it is actually a wood-destroying parasitic fungus that lives mainly on injured trees. It has a huge spectrum of biological substances. Its effects are also described in the professional encyclopaedia Huby ako .

Imagine that your body is a factory working at full capacity (to provide energy, growth, cell repair) and iron is the fuel that keeps it running. If iron reserves are depleted, you may experience weakness, heart palpitations or paler skin. Symptoms of iron deficiency include brittle nails, dry hair, shortness of breath, sleep problems, reduced concentration, cold extremities, increased frequency of infections, and anaemia (a lack of red blood cells caused by too little iron in the body), which manifests itself as extreme fatigue. With anaemia, the body is not supplied with enough oxygen and quickly becomes exhausted. Bruising can also be a sign of iron deficiency, as this mineral is important in the formation of haemoglobin, which supports the proper functioning of blood platelets.
