Health knowledge

Vitamine sind organische Substanzen, die im Körper eine katalytische Funktion bei den biochemischen Reaktionen des Stoffwechsels haben. Sie müssen von außen zugeführt werden und sind keine Baustoffe des Körpers (sonst müsste man z. B. auch die Aminosäuren zu den Vitaminen zählen).

Every child knows it and it has long been considered the booster for our immune system par excellence: vitamin C. A small sour fruit from the Amazon region has been causing a stir for some time now, and not just in research, because its vitamin C content far exceeds anything known to date: Camu Camu.

Inflammation shows us once again what a sophisticated system our body is. Contrary to popular belief, inflammation is not a bad thing. Rather, it is a super-intelligent mechanism of our body to repair damaged tissue. However, if this important and sensible repair mechanism gets out of balance, it can have far-reaching consequences for our health.

Glutathion ist zurzeit eines der am meisten diskutierten Nahrungsergänzungsmittel und wird inzwischen als eine Art Superfood gehandelt. Nicht ohne Grund, denn Glutathion in seiner reduzierten Form ist eines der wichtigsten körpereigenen intrazellulären Antioxidantien.

Glutathione is currently one of the most discussed dietary supplements and is now traded as a kind of superfood. Not without reason, because glutathione in its reduced form is one of the body’s most important intracellular antioxidants.

Vitamin D is considered THE vitamin par excellence for the health of our bones. What many people don’t know: Vitamin D is one of the most important nutrients when it comes to strengthening our defences and effectively preventing infections!

When it comes to proteins, most people immediately think of bodybuilding and muscle mass. What is misunderstood: Proteins, also called protein in the vernacular, are not only important for muscle building. None of us could live without proteins. Because: The proteins consisting of amino acids are the primary building material of our cells and thus involved in almost all vital processes in the body.

If the body lacks vital nutrients over a longer period of time, this initially becomes noticeable through reduced performance, and in the long term possibly also through permanent damage. A targeted addition of nutritional supplements is therefore sensible. But how can a nutrient deficiency occur at all despite a “good” diet? And what kind of nutritional supplementation is recommended?

Who doesn’t know it? The belly grumbles, the stomach hurts and the intestines send out clear signals! Complaints that each of us experiences from time to time, unfortunately for many of us gastrointestinal problems have become commonplace.

The knowledge about antioxidants promises that this does not have to remain just a dream. Of course, they cannot perform miracles and transform us into young, beautiful and healthy people in seconds like a fairy with a magic wand, but…
