Common Lady's Mantle ... from the past to the present ...
originates from the Latin word " Alchemilla " related to alchemy.

Kelp can absorb large amounts of iodine directly from the ocean. The body needs iodine to produce thyroid hormones, without which much more would not work ... our metabolism would not function properly, we would have little energy, and our minds would be dull.
Vitamín A - a vidím...
Vitamín A - Retinol, bol objavený v roku 1916. Ale až o 15 rokov neskôr bola určená jeho chemická štruktúra. A ďalších 15 rokov trvalo, kým sme sa ho naučili vyrábať synteticky (vo forme acetátu).
