Iron - the secret to your health and energy
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.
Vitamin C + rose hips + bioflavonoids
Designed specifically for stronger antioxidant effects, better absorption and utilisation, with rosehip as the main source of natural vitamin C. Vitamin C, known as ascorbic acid, is a nutrient essential for the functioning of our body. Our body synthesises this essential vitamin, so it is necessary to obtain it from fruits and vegetables such as citrus fruits, peppers, horseradish, and tomatoes.
Premium Fat Burner Dr. Lucullus

Cordyceps - zombies in reality
Cordyceps sinensis – this is our zombie predator. In China, they call it "winter insect, summer herb". Imagine a fungus that shoots out its spores (seeds) during reproduction in summer, which then attach themselves to the body of an insect. It gradually overgrows the insect's body and parasitises it, literally eating it from the inside, while the insect continues to live, changing its external appearance but continuing to hunt for food until it burrows underground, where it dies and mummifies. The fungus can survive in it for a long time. The fungus literally takes over the host's body, growing out of it in the summer and forming slender "sticks" 5-20 cm high. This inspired the Last of Us video game series, where the Cordyceps fungus turns humans into zombies. In real life, this video game takes place in the real life of insects. The victims are butterfly larvae, large ants, spiders...
Magnesium - the most important mineral?
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...
Choline and Inositol
Choline and Inositol - two words you probably haven't heard before. In terms of supplements, however, these are important B-group nutritional supplements, which are actually vitamins. These substances are very similar to vitamins and support liver function and lipid metabolism, i.e. fat metabolism. Choline is a water-soluble vitamin. It is found in lecithin, which is common in many plant and animal tissues. Choline is a precursor to the neurotransmitter (i.e. transmitter) acetylcholine, which is involved in many memory and muscle functions.
