Histamine Control
Histamine is often perceived negatively, especially for its role in allergic reactions and intolerance. As with many things in life, black-and-white thinking is not suitable for this biogenic amine. As a neurotransmitter, it participates in many critical processes. In defending the body, for example, it supports the enlargement of blood vessels, making it easier for immune cells to access the site of inflammation. At the same time, it stimulates the production of gastric juices (essential for food processing), regulates the sleep cycle, controls appetite, and plays a role in learning, memory, and emotions. Histamine naturally occurs in the human body, and its balance is crucial for health. In the digestive system, it's broken down by the enzyme diamine oxidase. However, if histamine intake is greater than the body can break down, histamine intolerance develops. This imbalance can be caused by stress, poor lifestyle, medicines, or other factors. Excess histamine can lead to unpleasant symptoms, often resembling food allergies or digestive issues. It's essential to understand histamine as an important helper in our body.
Innovative LIPO C (Liposomal Vitamin C)
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has long been recognized for its ability to enhance immune function and reduce the severity and duration of colds and flu. That vitamin C is essential for optimal immune system functioning and overall health is well known. This is evidenced by the fact that vitamin C is one of the most popular and widely used dietary supplements worldwide. The low content of this vitamin in processed foods requires its regular replenishment. In addition to boosting immunity and shortening the duration of colds, it plays an important role in wound healing, brain function improvement, and bone strength support.
Cordyceps - Zombie in Reality
Cordyceps sinensis - this is our zombie predator. In China, it is called "in winter insects, in summer herbs." Imagine a fungus that during reproduction in summer shoots its spores (seeds), which attach to the insect's body. It gradually grows throughout and parasitizes it, devours it from the inside out, with the insect still alive, even altering its outer appearance but still foraging until it retreats underground where it dies and mummifies. The fungus can survive in it for a longer period. The fungus literally controls the host's body, growing out of its body in summer, forming slender "sticks" 5-20 cm high. This inspired the video game series Last of Us where the Cordyceps fungus turns humankind into zombies. In real life, this video game unfolds in the actual life of insects. The victims are larvae of butterflies, large ants, spiders...
B-complex
From childhood, I remember the word "békomplex" very well and I basically never knew what it was. For younger generations, the word might recall drum&bass, as B-Complex is the stage name of Slovak DJ and producer Matúš Lenický (hit Beautiful Lies). If we are strictly scientific, then B complex is a group of vitamins B1 to B12.
