Vitamin B12 and iron contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. The same applies to riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), vitamin B6 and folic acid. A supplement can be a practical addition to a varied diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn our range you will find vitamin B12 from Vit4ever, NOW Foods, Osavi and Jarrow Formulas, iron from NOW Foods, Swanson, Osavi, Vit4ever and LUTO Supplements, and vitamin B-complex from Vit4ever. This collection also contains coenzyme Q10 and ubiquinol, maca, ginseng, cordyceps, shilajit, D-ribose, PQQ and acetyl-L-carnitine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin B12\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to the normal formation of red blood cells and to the normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B12 is naturally found almost exclusively in animal products such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy. People who eat few or no animal products therefore often choose a B12 supplement. In this collection you will find methylcobalamin as a raspberry or lemon-flavoured tablet, liposomal B12 capsules, liquid B12 and a chewable tablet with methylfolate, as well as acetyl-L-carnitine with vitamin B12 from LUTO Supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIron\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIron contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin and to normal oxygen transport in the body. In this collection you will find iron bisglycinate, iron fumarate, liposomal iron and iron bound to amino acids. Iron bisglycinate is a form that is generally gentle on the stomach. Vitamin C increases iron absorption; therefore Vit4ever combines iron bisglycinate with vitamin C from acerola. Do not use iron in high doses for extended periods without consulting your GP, and keep iron supplements out of reach of children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin B-complex and folic acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA B-complex combines several B vitamins in one tablet. Riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), vitamin B6, folic acid and vitamin B12 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Thiamine (B1) and biotin contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism. A B-complex is practical for those who want to take several B vitamins in a single dose. Jarrow Formulas Methyl B12 chewable tablet combines vitamin B12 with methylfolate, an active form of folic acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCoenzyme Q10 and ubiquinol\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoenzyme Q10 is a fat-soluble substance that the body produces itself and which can be found in almost all cells, particularly in the mitochondria. It is found in small amounts in meat, oily fish and nuts. In supplements, Q10 is available as ubiquinone, the classic form, and as ubiquinol, the reduced form. In this collection you will find Q10 from Vit4ever and NOW Foods and ubiquinol from NOW Foods and Life Extension. Because Q10 is fat-soluble, it is best taken with a meal. There are no approved health claims for Q10 in the EU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaca, ginseng, cordyceps and shilajit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaca is a tuber from the Andes in Peru, ginseng (Panax ginseng) is a root from East Asia and cordyceps is a mushroom that is usually offered in supplements as the cultivated CS-4 variety. Shilajit, also known as mumijo, is a resinous substance from mountain ranges such as the Himalayas. You will find them as extracts in capsules and tablets, in ratios such as 5:1, 10:1 or 20:1, and shilajit also as resin. There are (yet) no approved health claims for these plant-based substances in the EU, so we only describe what they are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eD-ribose, PQQ and NAD+\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eD-ribose is a simple sugar with five carbon atoms that is naturally found in the body; you can find it as a powder from Vit4ever and in capsules from Swanson. PQQ (pyrroloquinoline quinone) is a substance that can be found in small amounts in kiwi, parsley and green tea, among others. NAD+ is a coenzyme that the body produces itself; Vit4ever combines it with trans-resveratrol, niacin and betaine. Acetyl-L-carnitine also falls into this group. There are no approved health claims for these substances; choose them based on their composition and dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to see your GP?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFatigue can have many different causes, such as sleep, stress, diet or an underlying medical condition. If you have been tired for a long time without an obvious reason, have your GP check this, especially before you start using iron for an extended period. Always follow the recommended daily dosage on the packaging when taking supplements. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, consult your doctor or pharmacist first. A supplement is not a substitute for a varied diet, sufficient sleep and a healthy lifestyle.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"ginkgo-ginseng-365-tabletten-vit4ever","title":"Ginkgo + Ginseng 50:1 Extract | 365 Tablets | Vit4ever","description":"\u003ch2\u003eGinkgo and Ginseng in a Tablet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGinkgo and ginseng\u003c\/strong\u003e are not combined by chance. Both are plant extracts that have been used for centuries. This Vit4ever product combines both in a 50:1 extract per tablet. You get ginkgo biloba and Korean ginseng in fixed, standardized amounts, divided among 365 tablets per bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy These Two Substances Together\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGinkgo and ginseng are often sold separately. In this product, they are combined in a single tablet. Regarding the combination of Ginkgo biloba and Panax ginseng: the combination supports cognitive function*. Nevertheless, each plant remains relevant on its own, and therefore we explain them separately below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Ginkgo Adds to the Combination\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ginkgo extract in this product is standardized at 50:1, meaning that fifty parts of leaf material have been concentrated into one part extract. That is a significant concentration, and it explains why you still get a substantial amount of leaf material in a relatively small tablet. Per daily dose of two tablets, you get 120 mg of this extract, containing 28.8 mg of flavone glycosides and 7.2 mg of ginkgolide terpene lactones. Ginkgo biloba helps maintain normal cognitive function*. In addition, ginkgo biloba supports peripheral blood circulation*.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Ginseng Adds to the Combination\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second extract comes from Korean (Panax) ginseng root, also in a 50:1 ratio, meaning that fifty parts of root material have also been reduced to a concentrated extract. Per daily dose, there is 40 mg of this extract, providing 8 mg of ginsenosides. Ginsenosides are compounds formed in the root during growth. Ginseng helps awaken and improve vitality* and contributes to alertness and a clear mind*. Ginseng helps maintain concentration* and contributes to natural defenses and proper immune system function*. Ginseng has long had a permanent place in traditional Asian cuisine and herbal medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo Extracts, a Fixed Ratio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this product apart from ginkgo or ginseng alone is not only the combination itself, but also the way both extracts are standardized. Ginkgo is standardized for flavone glycosides and terpene lactones, ginseng for ginsenosides. This means you know exactly how much of these substances you get per tablet, instead of relying on a raw powder form in which the concentration can fluctuate. The rice extract anti-caking agent and microcrystalline cellulose are purely functional; they ensure that the tablet maintains its shape and does not clump during production. Ginkgo plus ginseng in the same tablet also means you do not have to combine two bottles or plan two times of intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo plant extracts, each with its own story, brought together in a standardized ratio.

You can simply let it melt in your mouth, with a raspberry flavour that is a little friendlier than the plain, slightly metallic taste of some other B12 products. Each effervescent tablet provides 500 micrograms of vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin. One bottle contains 365 tablets, so you can last a year without having to reorder in between. Interesting for those who eat plant-based, and for anyone who prefers not to leave their B12 intake to chance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMethylcobalamin as a form of B12\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFar from every B12 supplement using the same raw material.

Vitamin B12 is mainly found in animal products such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy; for vegans, a B12 supplement is recommended. The B12 in this raspberry tablet is produced through fermentation, which makes it suitable for a 100% vegan lifestyle. Vitamin B12 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to the normal formation of red blood cells. It also contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism, normal psychological function and the normal functioning of the immune system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reference intake for B12 is 2.5 micrograms per day, while this tablet contains 500 (20,000% of the reference intake).

Dextrose serves as a carrier, and a small amount of vitamin C (8.8 mg) also acts as an acidity regulator. Magnesium stearate, artificial colours, gelatin or preservatives have not been added. The tablets are vegan, free from lactose and gluten, and are manufactured in Germany under strict quality control, with an independent laboratory testing every batch for heavy metals, moulds and bacteria. This keeps the composition clear, without unnecessary additives that only serve to extend the shelf life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: a vegan B12 tablet with methylcobalamin, with a raspberry flavour that makes daily use just a little bit easier.

Vit4ever contains 250 mg of coenzyme Q10 per capsule, available in a bottle of 120 or 180 capsules. With a dosage of 1 capsule per day, that is 250 mg in a single, easy-to-swallow capsule, without having to combine multiple products to reach that amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is coenzyme Q10\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoenzyme Q10 is also known by the name ubiquinone, a name that refers to the fact that the substance occurs almost everywhere in the body: 'ubiquitous' means omnipresent. It is a fat-soluble substance that also occurs naturally in the body. Q10 is also found in food, especially in meat, fatty fish and nuts. There is no approved health claim for coenzyme Q10. Q10 is also widely used as an ingredient in skincare products, where it is applied topically to the skin instead of being ingested. This dual use, both internally and on the skin, explains why coenzyme Q10 appears on two very different shelves in the drugstore and supplement store.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwo bottle sizes, the same dosage per capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is available in two variants: a bottle of 120 capsules and a bottle of 180 capsules. Both variants contain exactly the same 250 mg of coenzyme Q10 per capsule; the only difference is the number of capsules per package. Those who want to build up a larger supply choose the bottle of 180; those who want to try it out first or prefer to buy a smaller bottle more often can start with the 120 capsules. At a dosage of 1 capsule per day, this amounts to 120 or 180 days of use per bottle, respectively, without changing the composition of the capsule itself. Both bottle sizes are produced according to the same specifications, so whichever variant you choose, the amount of Q10 per capsule remains identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eVegan cellulose-based capsule shell\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe capsule itself consists of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, a plant-based raw material used in the supplement industry as an alternative to gelatin. This makes this product suitable for vegetarians and vegans, something that is not always obvious with Q10 supplements because some variants are available with a gelatin capsule. The ingredient list of this product is kept short; you can find the full list further down on this page. For those who prefer not to see a long list of fillers and additives on a label, this is a nice detail. The capsules themselves have hardly any pronounced taste or smell, making them easy to take with a glass of water. This also makes this product practical for those who have difficulty with large tablets or a pronounced aftertaste from some other supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePackaging that keeps out light and moisture\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoenzyme Q10 is sensitive to light, and therefore this product is packaged in an airtight and light-tight tin made of bio-based plastic. This packaging choice is no coincidence: Q10 is a fat-soluble substance that, like many other fat-soluble substances, can break down under the influence of prolonged exposure to light and oxygen. By storing the capsules in a closed tin instead of a transparent bottle, the contents remain better protected until the moment you actually take the capsule. Vit4ever has the product manufactured according to German quality standards, with checks on both dosage and purity during the production process. This combination of protective packaging and a controlled production process is intended to maintain the quality of the capsule from production to the moment of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoenzyme Q10 remains one of the better-known names in the world of dietary supplements. With a fixed dosage of 250 mg per capsule, a choice between two bottle sizes and a short, clear ingredient list, this product offers a clear starting point for those who want to take a fixed daily amount of Q10 without any prior calculations.

Vit4ever offers this mushroom in a concentrated form: a CS-4 extract, standardized to 40% polysaccharides. Each daily dose of 2 capsules provides 1300 mg of this extract, of which 520 mg are polysaccharides. Those looking for a pure, concentrated Cordyceps supplement without unnecessary additives will find a simple and clear formula here. The range of mushroom extracts has grown significantly in recent years, and that is precisely why it is useful to know exactly what you are looking at on a label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is Cordyceps CS-4?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name CS-4 often appears on Cordyceps products, and that raises questions for many people. It refers to a specific cultivated strain of Cordyceps sinensis, developed because the wild mushroom is rare and difficult to harvest. Instead of collecting the mushroom in the mountains of Tibet or Nepal, the CS-4 strain is grown under controlled conditions, usually through the fermentation of the mycelium. This makes it possible to deliver a consistent quality, batch after batch, without depending on harvest, season, or altitude. The extract that Vit4ever uses is a 10:1 extract. This means that 10 parts of raw material are needed to make 1 part extract. The daily dose of 1300 mg of extract therefore equals 13,000 mg of raw Cordyceps material, concentrated in two capsules. For those accustomed to loose mushroom powder, that is a substantial difference: you are taking in much more raw material in a small volume than the weight of the capsule would suggest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePolysaccharides, the core substance of this extract\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference between regular Cordyceps powder and this CS-4 extract lies in the standardization of polysaccharides. Polysaccharides are long chains of sugar molecules that occur naturally in mushrooms and are often used as a measure of the quality of a mushroom extract. In this product, that content is fixed at 40%, which amounts to 520 mg of polysaccharides per daily dose. Manufacturers measure and standardize this content because it is the most commonly used way to compare mushroom extracts with one another. Without standardization, you never really know how many polysaccharides you are taking in, even if a large number is stated on the packaging. Many people wonder why one Cordyceps product is more expensive than another, while the packaging looks similar. The answer usually lies in these kinds of details: the extraction process, the concentration ratio, and the degree of standardization together determine what you actually take in, not just the number of milligrams on the front of the jar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVegan capsules, nothing else unnecessary\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsule shell is made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, a plant-based raw material that makes this product suitable for vegans and vegetarians. What stands out about this formula is especially what is not in it: no magnesium stearate, no silicon dioxide, and no artificial colors or flavorings. Many supplement manufacturers use these substances as aids in production, for example to prevent powder from sticking to machines during capsule filling. Vit4ever has deliberately chosen to keep the formula as short as possible: the Cordyceps extract and the capsule shell, nothing more. This makes the ingredients list clear for those who prefer not to take in unnecessary additives and want to know exactly what is in a capsule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA mushroom that is now known worldwide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCordyceps sinensis was originally found on the high plateaus of Tibet, Nepal, and parts of China, where the mushroom grows in a special symbiosis with a caterpillar larva at high altitudes. That rarity once made the wild variant a coveted and expensive trade product, with prices sometimes higher than those of gold per gram. Nowadays, it is possible to grow the same mushroom using the CS-4 strain, making the extract more widely available without compromising consistency. Vit4ever processes this cultivated extract into a practical capsule form, with a clear dosage of 2 capsules per day. The packaging is available in 180 or 300 capsules, each easily comparable based on 90 or 150 daily doses, respectively. This way, you can choose how much stock you want to have at home, without changing the composition of the extract.

The powder dissolves well and leaves little residue. Many people wonder if D-ribose has a strong taste. It is quite mild: the substance has a mild, slightly sweet taste that is barely noticeable in juice.

In nature, \u003cstrong\u003ecordyceps\u003c\/strong\u003e grows high in the mountains of Tibet and the Himalayas, where the fungus attaches itself to insect larvae. Swanson brings this extraordinary organism to you in capsule form, with 600 mg per capsule. A wonderful introduction to a name that has been part of Eastern herbal tradition for centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat cordyceps actually is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCordyceps is not an everyday mushroom like a button mushroom. The best-known species, Cordyceps sinensis, lives as a parasite on the caterpillars of certain moths high on the Tibetan plateau. In China and Tibet, it is called dong chong xia cao, which means winter worm, summer grass. This name refers to its life cycle: in winter, the fungus is inside the larva, and in summer, a stalk grows above the ground. Collectors search for it by hand, making the wild variety rare and expensive. Strictly speaking, it is therefore a fungus that grows on an animal, not a plant or an ordinary edible mushroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Swanson chooses cultivated mycelium\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause wild cordyceps is so scarce, Swanson uses a cultivated strain: Paecilomyces hepiali. It is grown in a controlled environment as deep-grown mycelium. Mycelium is the thread-like tissue of a fungus, somewhat comparable to the roots of a plant. Deep-grown means that the fungus grows in a liquid medium instead of on a solid substrate. This strain naturally contains polysaccharides and beta-glucans. These are compounds naturally found in the cell wall of the fungus. Each serving of two capsules provides 1.2 grams of cordyceps mycelium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMushrooms and fungi have been in high demand in recent years. Where you used to find mainly button mushrooms and oyster mushrooms in the supermarket, names such as reishi, lion's mane, and cordyceps are now also appearing on the shelves. This is due to the long history these species have in Asian herbal tradition. Cordyceps is one of the most discussed names in this field. Swanson takes advantage of this with a capsule that makes the cultivated mycelium accessible, so you do not have to process or weigh dried mushrooms yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe capsule and its composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach capsule contains 600 mg of cordyceps, and there are 120 in a bottle. The label recommends two capsules twice a day with water. Furthermore, Swanson keeps the composition brief: in addition to the cordyceps mycelium, you will only find microcrystalline cellulose and magnesium stearate, with a gelatin capsule around it. No flavorings, no colorings, and no unnecessary fillers. Due to the gelatin, the product is not plant-based, something to consider if you prefer to avoid animal-derived ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCordyceps remains a fascinating piece of nature: a fungus that for centuries could only be found at high altitudes, and now cultivated and packaged in a convenient capsule. If you want to get to know this classic from Eastern herbal tradition up close, Swanson offers it in a pure and simple form. It is a great starting point for anyone curious about the world of mushrooms and who would like to start with a well-known name.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Swanson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46462042079570,"sku":"Swanson-004","price":16.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/LutoSupplementscodyceps.jpg?v=1702221378"},{"product_id":"ijzer-natuurlijke-vitamine-c-365-tabletten-vit4ever","title":"Iron + Vitamin C (iron bisglycinate \u0026 acerola) 20mg | 365 tablets | Vit4ever","description":"\u003ch2\u003eIron + Vitamin C from Vit4ever\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSports, menstruation, or a plant-based diet: these are three completely different situations in which people pay extra attention to their iron intake. These tablets from Vit4ever combine 20mg of \u003cstrong\u003eiron\u003c\/strong\u003e from iron bisglycinate with 40mg of natural vitamin C from acerola extract. One tablet per day, 365 in a bottle, made for adults who want to supplement their iron intake in a targeted way without any fuss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat your body uses iron for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIron is a trace element that your body uses to transport oxygen. It is incorporated into hemoglobin, the substance in your red blood cells that binds oxygen and brings it to your tissues. Iron contributes to normal oxygen transport in the body and to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin. Some people, such as menstruating women, athletes, and people who eat a vegetarian or vegan diet, pay extra attention to their iron intake. If you have doubts about your iron status, consult your GP. Iron also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. Iron also contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and to normal cognitive function. Furthermore, iron plays a role in the cell division process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChelation: what iron bisglycinate is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference between iron forms lies in how the iron is attached to its carrier. In forms such as iron sulfate or iron fumarate, the iron is bound as a salt. In iron bisglycinate, the iron is linked to two molecules of the amino acid glycine via a chemical bond, called chelation. The tablets themselves are small, easy to swallow, and entirely plant-based, without gelatin or other animal-derived ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy acerola and not just synthetic vitamin C\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe acerola cherry is one of the most concentrated natural sources of vitamin C that exist, far richer than an orange. Vit4ever uses an extract of this fruit instead of synthetic ascorbic acid. Vitamin C increases iron absorption. Vitamin C also contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative stress and to the normal functioning of the immune system. Vitamin C also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to the normal functioning of the nervous system, and to normal psychological function. Furthermore, vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal functioning of the skin, blood vessels, bones, cartilage, teeth, and gums, and to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E. That is why iron and vitamin C are together in one tablet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePractical: intake and duration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake 1 tablet daily with sufficient liquid, preferably one hour before a meal. It is better to drink coffee, black tea, and green tea at another time, because the tannins in them can reduce the absorption of iron. Calcium from dairy can also temporarily reduce absorption, so it is better not to combine a dairy product directly with the tablet. Many people wonder how long such a bottle lasts: with one tablet per day, 365 tablets will last you exactly one year, without having to reorder halfway through. The tablets are made in certified EU production and deliberately contain no magnesium stearate, colorings, or unnecessary fillers, which also makes them suitable for those who prefer a short ingredient list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: iron bisglycinate with natural vitamin C from acerola, in chelate form and a year's supply in one bottle.

That corresponds to 6000 mg of dried root. The maca comes from the highlands of Peru, where the plant has been eaten for centuries. It is a plant-based supplement in a vegan capsule, without additives around the extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat maca is and where it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaca is the root of Lepidium meyenii, a cruciferous plant related to radish, mustard, and rapeseed. The plant grows high in the Andes, on plateaus around four thousand meters, where the conditions are harsh and few other crops survive. It is precisely this tuberous root that is harvested, sun-dried, and then processed. The dried root naturally contains carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, fiber, and minerals. In Peru, maca has been part of the daily diet for generations, where the root is boiled, dried, or ground into flour. The indigenous people of the plateau used maca long before the plant became known worldwide. Good to know: you get the whole root here, in extract form, and not a separate substance that has been extracted from it. Maca root exists in different colors, from yellow to red and black, depending on the variety that grows on the plateau. For this extract, the dried root is used, which is then concentrated at a ratio of ten to one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e10:1 extract, what that means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a 10:1 extract, ten times as much root was used as extract is produced. For every 600 mg of extract in a capsule, therefore, approximately 6000 mg of dried maca root has been processed. The difference with loose maca powder? You get the root in a compact, concentrated form, without having to get rid of spoonfuls of powder and without the earthy taste. The formula has been deliberately kept bare: only maca extract and a plant-based capsule shell, nothing else. No colorings, no flavorings, and no preservatives. Every batch is independently tested for purity, heavy metals, and microbiological quality, so that the contents of the capsule match what is on the label. Such independent testing is important for a concentrated plant extract, because the root grows at a high altitude and naturally absorbs minerals from the soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaca as part of your day\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaca is used by men and women, and fits into all kinds of routines. Because maca is originally a food crop, it can easily be taken at a fixed time, just like regular food. Many people take the capsules throughout the day. The taste of the root is earthy and slightly nutty, but you won't taste any of that in capsule form. If you want to know how much root you get, you can simply calculate backward: at the full daily dose, you get 3000 mg of extract, which corresponds to approximately 30,000 mg of root equivalent. This way, you keep control over the amount that suits you. Some people gradually build up the amount and start with one or two capsules per day, to experience how the root fits into their routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA clean, vegan formula\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsule shell is made of plant-based cellulose (HPMC), making Maca Extreme suitable for vegans and vegetarians. The capsule contains only the maca extract and that plant-based shell. Because there are no fillers, lubricants, or other additives, you know exactly what you get in every capsule: a 10:1 extract of Lepidium meyenii and nothing else. Because nothing has been added to the taste or color, the product remains close to the raw root as it is eaten in Peru. A jar contains 365 capsules. At the full daily dose of five capsules, this will last you well over two months; if you take fewer, a jar will last proportionally longer. This way, you determine the pace yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, with Maca Extreme you get the whole maca root in a concentrated 10:1 extract, straight from the Peruvian Andes. A bare, vegan formula with 600 mg of extract per capsule, with which you can easily give maca a fixed place in your day.

It is a formula centered around two mushrooms with a long tradition in Chinese herbal medicine. Cordyceps has been central to this for centuries. LUTO Supplements makes the capsules plant-based, gluten-free, and lactose-free. One bottle contains 60 capsules, sufficient for 30 days at two capsules per day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Cordyceps sinensis actually is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCordyceps sinensis is a mushroom you won't just come across in the woods. In the wild, it grows at high altitudes in the Tibetan highlands as a parasite on caterpillar larvae. That sounds unusual, and it is. Wild cordyceps is so rare that supplements almost always use cultivated mycelium. This is the network of fungal threads from which the mushroom grows. These threads contain polysaccharides, nucleoside-like compounds, and other fungal metabolites, among other things. What many people do not know is that the composition varies depending on the cultivation method and the extract. Therefore, not every Cordyceps sinensis capsule contains the same thing. This product uses Cordyceps sinensis MRL, a cultivated variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo mushrooms in one capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to cordyceps, this formula contains Reishi extract. Reishi is also known as Ganoderma lucidum. The difference between the two lies in their composition. Cordyceps mainly provides nucleosides and specific polysaccharides. Reishi also contains triterpenes in addition to polysaccharides, although this product only lists the polysaccharides. The Reishi dosage is modest at 50 mg per two capsules. The focus of this formula is clearly on Cordyceps sinensis, which plays the leading role with 800 mg per daily dose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe role of silicon from bamboo\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe third ingredient is silicon, obtained from bamboo extract with 85% silica. Silicon is a trace element. You get 8 mg of silicon per daily dose. That is a modest amount. In the context of this Cordyceps sinensis supplement, silicon is more of a complementary ingredient than a core component. It fits the profile of the two mushrooms less directly, but does add a mineral source to the formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the raw material\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition of cordyceps depends on the raw material.

The best-known species, Cordyceps sinensis, grows wild at high altitudes in the Himalayas and on the Tibetan Plateau. There, the fungus has a remarkable life cycle: it naturally grows on the larvae of certain moths, which made the mushroom rare and valuable for centuries. Cordyceps was therefore highly valued in traditional Chinese and Tibetan herbal medicine. Today, cordyceps for supplements is no longer harvested in the wild, but cultivated under controlled conditions without the involvement of insects. This makes a consistent, controlled raw material available instead of the variable wild variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to Cordyceps sinensis, there is a second species that is widely cultivated for supplements: Cordyceps militaris. Both fall under the name cordyceps and are used in supplements in a similar way. Cordyceps has become one of the most sought-after mushrooms in the supplement industry, alongside species such as reishi, lion's mane, and chaga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMycelium and what organic cultivation means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mushroom consists roughly of two parts: the mycelium, the finely branched root network that grows underground or in a growth medium, and the fruiting body, the part you see above ground. This product uses organically grown Cordyceps sinensis mycelium. Each capsule contains 750 mg, and the daily dose of two capsules therefore amounts to 1500 mg, or 1.5 grams. It consists of the whole, ground mycelium and not a standardized, concentrated extract; this is a deliberate choice that is reflected on the label. Because the amount per capsule is clearly stated, you know exactly what you are taking. The organic certification means that the mycelium is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, on a controlled growth medium. This also explains why a cultivated product provides more consistent results than wild cordyceps, which can vary greatly depending on the location and season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSimple, vegan composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the cordyceps mycelium, the capsule contains only a few functional excipients: rice flour, ascorbyl palmitate, and silicon dioxide.

Each capsule provides 500 mg of extract, standardized to 60% humic acid and 20% fulvic acid. The capsules are plant-based and therefore suitable for vegans.

It is a dark, resinous substance found in rock crevices high in the mountains, especially in the Himalayas. This substance is the result of centuries of plant material decomposition combined with microbial conversion. What remains is a complex mixture of humic substances and trace minerals. The two most important fractions are humic acid and fulvic acid. Humic acid is the larger, heavier fraction. It can strongly bind ions and other molecules. Fulvic acid is smaller and more soluble in water. This product provides 300 mg of humic acid and 100 mg of fulvic acid per capsule. These are not separate additives, but natural components of the shilajit itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy selenium is included in this formula\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eIn addition to the shilajit extract, each capsule contains 30 micrograms of selenium. This is a deliberate choice. Selenium helps protect cells against oxidative stress. It also contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the normal function of the thyroid gland. Furthermore, selenium contributes to normal spermatogenesis. What many people do not know is that selenium also contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and normal nails. You receive this mineral in a relatively low, supplementary dose. Two capsules per day provide 60 micrograms, which is a good supplement to your diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe difference between raw shilajit and a standardized extract\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eYou can find shilajit in all sorts of forms on the market. As resin, powder, or capsules. The difference lies in standardization and purification. Raw shilajit may contain contaminants, such as heavy metals or other unwanted substances. A standardized shilajit extract, like the one in this product, is purified and tested for composition. You know exactly how much humic acid and fulvic acid it contains. This makes the dosage more predictable than with a blob of resin. By the way, the plant-based HPMC capsule shell contains no animal gelatin. No artificial colors or preservatives have been added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eIn short: this is a clearly formulated shilajit supplement.

Two capsules provide 1000 mg of extract, which is equivalent to 5000 mg of dried root. A pot contains 120 vegan capsules and will last sixty days when taking two per day. Convenient if you want to ingest a significant amount of maca without having to consume spoons of powder. Apart from that, there's nothing special in it: just the extract and a plant-based casing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere maca comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaca is a tuber crop that grows in the highlands of the Peruvian Andes, often above four thousand meters. At that altitude, with barren soil and large temperature differences, few crops grow. Maca does. The root has been cultivated and eaten there for centuries and its shape somewhat resembles a radish or turnip. The maca in this product comes from controlled cultivation in Peru and is processed according to European standards. Many people wonder exactly where maca comes from. In short: from a tough root from one of the highest agricultural regions in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat a 5:1 extract means\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe word extract indicates concentration. With a 5:1 extract, five times as much dried root is concentrated into a smaller amount of powder. So, five parts root are compressed into one part extract. As a result, 1000 mg of this extract corresponds to 5000 mg of regular maca root. The difference with loose maca powder lies in that concentration: you usually need a few grams of powder to get close, whereas here, two compact capsules suffice. In practice, this means less swallowing for the same amount of maca. And you don't taste the somewhat earthy, caramel-like flavor of maca, because it's safely contained in the capsule.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOnly maca in a vegan capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe composition is deliberately short. Besides the maca extract, there is only a plant-based capsule shell made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, with no other fillers, colorings, or flavorings. This makes the product suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and free from gluten, lactose, soy, and GMOs. Osavi checks every batch in a laboratory before it leaves the factory. This way, you know that every capsule contains what it should. What many people don't know: loose maca powder is sometimes mixed with other powders, while a capsule with a fixed extract gives you a clear, controllable amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to take this maca\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou take two capsules per day with a glass of water, either all at once or spread throughout the day. Some people prefer to take maca in the morning. With two capsules per day, a pot of 120 capsules will last sixty days, so about two months. Because the maca here is in capsule form, you don't have to weigh anything or stir it into a smoothie. This saves hassle and makes it easy to maintain as a daily habit. If you prefer to mix maca into your breakfast, loose powder is an alternative, but then you sacrifice convenience and a fixed dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn short: this is maca from Peru as a 5:1 extract, 1000 mg per day from two vegan capsules, equivalent to 5000 mg of root.

With this vitamin B-complex, exactly that amount has been maintained for each of the eight vitamins, no more and no less. That is a conscious choice. Some B-complexes on the market go up to five or ten times the RI, often supplemented with substances such as choline or inositol. Convenient if you are specifically looking for that, but for most people that is more than necessary. What many people do not know: B vitamins are water-soluble, so your body does not store an excess. You mostly urinate it out again. A complex at 100 percent RI therefore aligns better with what your body actually uses, instead of a dose that you lose for the most part again. It is a matter of meeting the daily need, not of getting as much as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEight vitamins, one tablet per day\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis complex contains thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), biotin (B7), folic acid (B9) and B12. All these substances also enter through food, think of whole grain products, legumes, eggs, meat and green leafy vegetables. This vitamin B-complex provides a fixed basic dose of all eight B vitamins as a supplement to a varied diet. One tablet per day provides the full RI of all eight at once. The eight vitamins also often occur together in nature in the same food sources. That is why the full group in one tablet was chosen, instead of a selection of a few separate vitamins. With 365 tablets per bottle you also have a supply for a whole year, without having to reorder in between. That makes it practical too: buy a bottle and you don't have to think about it again for a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor those looking for a simple supplement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are also heavier variants of a B-complex, with doses that lie far above the RI and extra substances such as choline, inositol or PABA. This product is consciously the opposite of that. No excess, no extra cofactors, only the eight B vitamins in their usual daily amount. That makes this vitamin B-complex suitable as an initial introduction to a B-complex, or as a regular daily supplement alongside a varied diet. For the daily basis, 100 percent RI is more than enough for most people, and that is exactly what this complex is intended for: a sensible, clear supplement without fuss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVegan, tested and no-frills\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tablets are completely plant-based and contain no magnesium stearate, colorings or flavorings. Microcrystalline cellulose is used as a filler, a neutral and widely used carrier in tablet form. The product is gluten-free, lactose-free and GMO-free. Vit4ever has every production batch independently tested in a German laboratory, for both the actual vitamin contents and for possible contaminants such as heavy metals and fungi. This way you know that what is on the label is also actually in the tablet. The tablets themselves are compact in size, which makes swallowing easier compared to larger capsules. Precisely for this reason, this vitamin B-complex is also well suited for people who have difficulty swallowing large tablets or capsules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vitamin B-complex is therefore primarily intended as a simple, reliable basis: eight vitamins at 100 percent RI, a fixed dose per day, and a supply that lasts the whole year without you having to think about it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vit4ever","offers":[{"title":"365 tablets","offer_id":49760092193106,"sku":"vit4-323","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/vit4ever-vitamine-b-complex-365-tabletten-alle-8-1.png?v=1793698731"},{"product_id":"swanson-shilajit-extract-400mg-60-vcaps","title":"Shilajit Extract 400mg | 60 capsules | Swanson","description":"\u003ch2\u003eShilajit Extract from Swanson\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA special substance is formed high in the mountains. \u003cstrong\u003eShilajit\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dark, sticky substance that seeps from rock crevices, also known as mineral pitch.

Therefore, 1500 mg of extract provides the equivalent of 15000 mg of raw \u003cstrong\u003eshilajit\u003c\/strong\u003e, roughly ten times as much as you would expect based on weight alone. The raw material comes from the southern foothills of the Himalayas and is purified and standardized after collection. The latter is important: raw mumijo varies greatly from location to location, while a standardized extract guarantees an equal composition from capsule to capsule. This way, you know what you are getting with each capsule, instead of guessing with a piece of unprocessed resin that you would have to weigh yourself and dissolve in water or milk, as is customary in the traditional method of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFulvic acid and humic acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilajit naturally contains two characteristic groups of substances: fulvic acid and humic acid. These are organic compounds that form during the slow decomposition of plant material in the rock layers, and they are characteristic of this type of mineral resin. Fulvic acid is a relatively small molecule that naturally forms during this type of decomposition process and is also found in humus-rich soil and peat, albeit in different concentrations. The Vit4ever extract is pure: no separate minerals or vitamins have been added, everything in it comes directly from the resin itself. The exact composition of shilajit may vary slightly from batch to batch within the quality margins that apply to this extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePurification and quality control of the raw material\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaw mumijo that comes directly from the rocks contains, in addition to fulvic acid and humic acid, impurities such as stone dust and plant residues. Before it ends up as an extract in a capsule, the raw material therefore undergoes a purification process in which these impurities are removed and the material is concentrated into the 10:1 extract. Each batch is then checked, so that the final capsule has a predictable, standardized composition instead of the natural variation of the raw resin. That process is exactly why a \u003cstrong\u003eshilajit\u003c\/strong\u003e extract is easier to dose in practice than the raw material: you know what you are getting, without always having to weigh or estimate how much resin you are using.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThus, \u003cstrong\u003eshilajit mumijo\u003c\/strong\u003e extract remains essentially a natural product with a short list of ingredients. No synthetic additives, no unnecessary fillers, only the purified 10:1 extract in a plant-based capsule. For those who prefer not to weigh or taste raw resin, the capsule form is a practical way to get a fixed amount of mumijo daily.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vit4ever","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49220507238738,"sku":"vit4-380","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/vit4ever-mumijo-shilajit-180-capsules-vit4ever-1.jpg?v=1793623879"},{"product_id":"himalayan-shilajit-resin-25g","title":"Himalayan Shilajit (Asphaltum punjabianum) 500mg | 25g | Osavi","description":"\u003ch2\u003ePure Himalayan shilajit in resin form\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou are looking for real \u003cstrong\u003eshilajit\u003c\/strong\u003e and find yourself facing a lot of confusion online.

On this page, we honestly explain what you have on your hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat shilajit actually is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilajit (also known as mumio or mumijo) is a dark brown, sticky resin that seeps from rock crevices in the high mountains. It is not a herb and not a plant. Over centuries, it is formed by the slow decomposition of plant material under pressure, a process called humification. This resin has been used in Ayurveda for a very long time. The main components are humic substances, plus trace minerals and amino acids. Our resin comes from the Himalayas and bears the botanical name Asphaltum punjabianum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFulvic acid and humic acid, in plain language\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two best-known substances in shilajit are fulvic acid and humic acid. Both are humic substances, byproducts of centuries of plant decomposition. The difference lies in the size of the molecule. Fulvic acid is small and dissolves well in water, even at varying acidity levels. Humic acid is a larger molecule. Together, they deliver the minerals in shilajit in an organically bound form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy authenticity and purity matter so much here\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA large part of the shilajit you find online is reportedly fake, heavily diluted, or contaminated. Raw, unprocessed resin can contain heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, and mercury, or fungi and pesticides. We are honest about that. This resin has been purified and lab-tested, with a certificate of analysis for each batch. The standardization to 40-60% fulvic acid is not a marketing trick but a measurable quality indicator: you know what you are buying. And because this is resin and not powder, you can check the authenticity yourself, for example by dissolving a piece in warm water. That is immediately the advantage of resin over powder or capsules: it is the least processed form, usually with a higher fulvic acid content and without added fillers. The downside is the earthy, bitter taste and that measuring it requires a little more attention. That is why a wooden dosing stick is included. For those who consciously choose quality and origin, pure \u003cstrong\u003eshilajit\u003c\/strong\u003e in resin form is the logical choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout health claims\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are no permitted health claims available for shilajit. Therefore, on this page we describe the origin, composition, and use, and we do not attach any promises about energy or testosterone like some webshops do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: this is pure Himalayan shilajit for the curious, quality-conscious user. Transparent about origin, standardized to fulvic acid, and tested for heavy metals. A 25-gram jar, a wooden stick for dosing, and an honest explanation instead of empty promises.

Those who eat plant-based or vegan diets naturally get little B12 and therefore more often look to a supplement.

It is a dark, resinous natural substance from the high mountains, also known as mumijo. German Elite Nutrition processes it into capsules with 2000mg of extract per daily dose. Convenient for those who want to try this traditional substance without the hassle of sticky resin. On this page you can read more about what shilajit exactly is, how it is made and in what forms you encounter it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat shilajit exactly is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShilajit is formed over hundreds, sometimes thousands of years in mountain ranges such as the Himalayas, the Altai and the Caucasus. Plant remains are very slowly compressed between the rocks there, until an organic-mineral substance remains that seeps out of the crevices in summer. That substance is full of humic substances. The two best known are fulvic acid and humic acid. Fulvic acid is a small molecule that binds minerals and thus easily moves through water. Humic acid is its bigger brother and behaves differently in liquid. In addition, mumijo naturally contains dozens of trace elements and substances called dibenzo-alpha-pyrones. In short: shilajit is not a single ingredient, but a complete natural package that originated in the mountains. Many people wonder where it actually comes from. The answer is therefore literally in the rocks of the high mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat 2000mg and 10:1 mean\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the label it says a 10:1 extract. That means the manufacturer condenses ten kilos of raw material into one kilo of extract. So you get a concentrated form, not raw resin. This shilajit extract is moreover standardized to 50% fulvic acid and 12% humic acid. Standardizing means that every batch contains the same amount of those substances, instead of a guess per jar. That is nice, because in the store you see the craziest numbers come by. One brand puts 20,000mg on the front, another 250mg. Such figures say little if you do not know how much fulvic acid is in it. That is why that percentage is much more telling than the big number on the packaging. A fixed amount per daily dose makes the dosage easy to follow and compare. So when comparing brands, pay attention mainly to the percentage of fulvic acid and humic acid, not to the largest number on the front. A lower total number with a high standardization can deliver more of those substances than an impressive number without a percentage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlack pepper extract and capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula also contains black pepper extract, with 9.5mg of piperine per daily dose. Piperine is the substance that gives black pepper its sharpness. Furthermore, the capsule shell is plant-based, made of cellulose instead of gelatin, and contains a small amount of anti-caking agent to keep the powder loose. The formula does not contain more additives. This way the contents remain close to the raw material itself, supplemented only with pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCapsules or resin, what is the difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou buy shilajit roughly in two forms. The classic form is resin, also called resin, which you measure out with a spoon and dissolve in warm water. Pure, but sticky and quite bitter in taste. The capsule form here removes that hassle. You swallow four capsules with some water and you are done. Each capsule is plant-based, so also suitable if you eat vegan. For on the go or at the office, that is much more practical than carrying a jar of resin around. A jar contains 180 capsules, enough for about a month and a half at four per day. If you want to build it up slowly, you can start with a lower amount and slowly go to four. This way you keep your routine simple and clear. Store the jar dry and cool and close it well after use, because shilajit naturally attracts moisture. For many people, that fixed capsule dosage is precisely the reason to choose this form instead of loose resin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis way you get with these mumijo capsules a concentrated shilajit extract with a fixed amount of fulvic acid and humic acid, supplemented with black pepper.

B vitamins work closely together in metabolism, and the added vitamin C makes the formula broader than B12 alone. Such a combined formula is ideal for those who want to supplement not only B12 but several B vitamins at once. Everything is in a liquid base without alcohol, making it suitable for those who prefer to avoid alcohol in tinctures. The liquid form is for those who prefer not to use capsules or tablets, or who like to fine-tune the dosage themselves.

It has been collected and used there for centuries. It is rich in fulvic acid and humic acid, two types of organic acids. This product contains 1000 mg of shilajit extract per daily dose, of which 500 mg is fulvic acid and 120 mg is humic acid. Modern extraction methods make it possible to put these substances in a standardized concentration into a capsule.

Finally, there is 10 mg of black pepper extract, with 9.5 mg of piperine. The dosages of the individual plants are clearly listed on the label, down to the milligram. This way you can see exactly how much of each substance you get per daily dose and do not have to guess.

It contains no artificial colors, flavors, magnesium stearate, or preservatives, and is free from gelatin, lactose, gluten, and GMOs. It is produced in the EU under strict quality control. You can buy shilajit as a separate product, but many people choose a complex because you combine several traditional extracts in one capsule instead of stacking separate jars.

This means that 20 kilograms of root are required to produce 1 kilogram of extract. The extract is standardised to 20 per cent ginsenosides, the plant compounds that give ginseng its name. A daily dose of 3 capsules provides 1800 mg of extract containing 360 mg of ginsenosides.

With a low extraction ratio, such as 3:1, the product is closer to the raw root. At 20:1, much more root material is processed to obtain the same weight of extract. This makes it more likely that you will receive a consistent amount of ginsenosides from batch to batch. Vit4ever also explicitly standardises the product to 20 per cent ginsenosides. This is necessary because the ginsenoside content of raw ginseng root can naturally vary widely, depending on the soil, climate, and how long the plant has been allowed to grow. Many people wonder why one ginseng product is cheaper than another when the packaging looks similar. The answer usually lies in these kinds of differences in extraction ratio and standardisation, not in the number of capsules on the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen comparing ginseng products, it is noticeable that the extraction ratio is often hardly mentioned on the packaging, even though this ratio determines how much root is actually processed into a capsule. A 20:1 extract requires significantly more raw root per kilogram of finished product than an extract with a lower ratio, which results in a more compact capsule with less bulk for the same amount of ginsenosides. For those accustomed to larger amounts of raw ginseng root or a less concentrated extract, this is a practical difference: less capsule volume is needed to provide the same amount of ginsenosides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePanax ginseng, also known as Korean ginseng\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePanax ginseng C.A. Meyer is also known as Asian or Korean ginseng and is the root traditionally harvested in parts of East Asia. The plant takes years to mature before the root is harvested, and therefore grows considerably more slowly than many other herbs used in supplements. Ginseng may contribute to natural resistance* and to maintaining energy and vitality*. The root naturally contains ginsenosides, a group of plant compounds found almost exclusively in the Panax genus. This makes Panax ginseng different from, for example, Siberian ginseng, another plant that is often found on the same shelf but is botanically unrelated and contains different plant compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGinsenosides in Panax ginseng\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGinsenosides are the characteristic plant compounds in Panax ginseng. There are dozens of different ginsenosides, each with a slightly different structure. Ginseng may contribute to maintaining endurance and alertness*. The label of this product states exactly how much extract and how many ginsenosides are in the daily dose of 3 capsules: 1800 mg of extract containing 360 mg of ginsenosides. Take the recommended 3 capsules per day spread throughout the day with plenty of water, so that the extract is taken gradually rather than all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVegan capsules without fillers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsules in this product are vegan and contain no fillers. The capsule shell is made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, a plant-based substance that encloses the contents without the need for additional excipients. Vit4ever independently tests every batch for purity and ginsenoside content, ensuring that the standardisation stated on the label matches what is actually in the capsule. This means that with 180 capsules, you get a 60-day supply without any additives that do not contribute to the product.

The body also produces some of it itself, and due to its widespread presence, it is sometimes referred to as a vitamin-like substance. CoQ10 exists in two forms that can convert into each other: ubiquinone, the oxidized form, and ubiquinol, the reduced form. Both are found in supplements. This product contains ubiquinol, the form some people consciously choose over ubiquinone. Ubiquinol is the form present as reduced CoQ10 in the body and is therefore preferred by some users. Which form one chooses is mainly a matter of personal preference for form and formulation; both ultimately deliver CoQ10 to the body. In food, CoQ10 is naturally found primarily in organ meats, fatty fish, and in smaller amounts in nuts and vegetable oils, but the amounts obtained from these sources are limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKaneka Ubiquinol as a raw material\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe softgels contain Kaneka Ubiquinol, a well-known branded raw material often chosen for its consistent quality and clear specifications. Kaneka is one of the most prominent producers of this raw material and is used in many ubiquinol supplements. The use of a recognizable branded raw material makes the origin of the main ingredient transparent. Each softgel contains 100 mg of ubiquinol, a clear, fixed amount clearly stated on the label. Because it revolves around one main ingredient, the formula remains straightforward, and you know exactly what you are getting. Ubiquinol is often offered in softgels with oil precisely because the substance is fat-soluble and can be processed in an oil base. A softgel also seals the oil well, which is appropriate for a substance sensitive to air and light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFat-soluble softgel with MCT oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause ubiquinol is fat-soluble, it is combined here with MCT oil as a carrier. MCT stands for medium-chain triglycerides, a light, neutral oil that serves as a fat base here. The formula is concise: ubiquinol as the main ingredient, MCT oil, and the softgel components. The softgel contains gelatin and beeswax, making this product unsuitable for vegetarians or vegans.

This product contains 150 mg of niacin per daily dose, in the form of nicotinamide. This form is known for not causing a flushing sensation, something that the other form of niacin sometimes does.

Vit4ever deliberately chooses a simple composition: each substance has its own, named dose per daily serving, instead of a formula in which you have to figure out exactly what is hidden behind a collective name. This way, with two capsules, you know exactly how much of each substance you are getting, without having to combine four different products yourself.

Meat, fish, eggs and dairy are the main sources. The methylcobalamin in this effervescent tablet is made through plant-based fermentation, making the product 100% vegan, without anything of animal origin being used. Vitamin B12 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to the normal formation of red blood cells. In addition, it contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism, normal psychological function and the normal functioning of the immune system. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre advises vegans to use vitamin B12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reference intake for B12 is 2.5 micrograms per day for an adult; an effervescent tablet contains 500 micrograms. No statutory upper limit has been established for B12.

Furthermore, the tablet contains dextrose as a carrier and a small amount of vitamin C (8.8 mg), which also serves as an acid regulator and keeps the taste balanced. You will not find any magnesium stearate, colorings, gelatin or preservatives in it. The tablets are vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free and are produced in Germany according to fixed quality standards, with an independent laboratory testing every batch for heavy metals, molds and bacteria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lemon flavor variant thus offers a vegan B12 as methylcobalamin, packaged in an effervescent tablet that tastes pleasant instead of just being functional. With 365 pieces per bottle, you are well supplied for now, without having to reorder halfway through the year. And if the lemon flavor is exactly what wins you over to think about your B12 daily, then that flavor choice has done its job.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vit4ever","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53814272164178,"sku":"vit4-170","price":17.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/vit4ever-vitamine-b12-citroen-vit4ever-1.jpg?v=1793623868"},{"product_id":"coenzym-q10-200mg-180-capsules-vit4ever","title":"Coenzyme Q10 200mg | 180 Capsules | Vit4ever","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCoenzyme Q10 by Vit4ever\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoenzyme Q10 is a substance your body produces itself.

The name ubiquinone refers to the Latin word ubique, meaning everywhere, because the substance can be found in virtually all cells. You get small amounts through your diet, from sources such as meat, fish, nuts, and vegetable oils. In supplements, Q10 is usually offered as ubiquinone or ubiquinol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe difference between ubiquinone and ubiquinol\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ10 exists in two forms: ubiquinone (the oxidized form) and ubiquinol (the reduced form). Many people wonder which of the two is better. The honest answer: your body converts ubiquinone into ubiquinol and back again. The two forms are therefore not competitors, but two sides of the same substance. The advantage of ubiquinone is that it is more stable and has a longer shelf life, so it breaks down less quickly in the bottle. Vit4ever therefore deliberately chooses ubiquinone. It is worth noting that Q10 is fat-soluble, so it is recommended to take the capsule with a meal containing some fat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy naturally fermented ubiquinone\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot all Q10 is made in the same way. The ubiquinone in this product comes entirely from a natural fermentation process, in which yeasts build up the raw material step by step. This produces the all-trans form, the same structure as the Q10 your body produces itself. The alternative, synthetic production, often starts with petrochemical raw materials and can produce a mixture of forms. In this light, fermentation is not a marketing trick, but a choice for a raw material with a recognizable structure. And because no animal materials are used anywhere in the process, the capsule is completely plant-based. A truly vegan Q10, including the capsule shell itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Vit4ever chooses 200 mg\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany shelves contain Q10 bottles with 30 to 100 mg per capsule. This coenzyme Q10 200 mg is well above that. With 200 mg per capsule, one capsule per day is enough, without having to swallow multiple capsules. And with 180 capsules in a bottle, you have half a year before you need to reorder. This makes the price per day low compared to the smaller 60-count Q10 capsules you often encounter. For those who see Q10 as a permanent part of their routine, this value size is a practical plus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: this is a straightforward, plant-based Q10 product with 200 mg per capsule.

Ubiquinone is the oxidized form, ubiquinol the reduced form. The difference lies in electrons: ubiquinol has two extra, and it can give them away. Then it becomes ubiquinone, which can then take in electrons again. Your body therefore constantly switches between these two states, a bit like a rechargeable battery that runs out and gets full again. In your blood, Q10 exists largely as ubiquinol. Many people wonder what exactly the difference is between Q10 and ubiquinol. In short: ubiquinol is Q10, but in the form your body largely uses it itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere coenzyme Q10 is found\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery cell in your body has mitochondria, small structures that make energy in the form of ATP from nutrients. Coenzyme Q10 is found in those mitochondria, including in the heart, liver, and kidneys. Your body produces Q10 itself, and you get a small amount from food such as meat, fatty fish, and nuts. What many people do not know: from food you only get a few milligrams per day on average. A softgel of 100mg is therefore many times that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKaneka Ubiquinol in MCT oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaneka is the Japanese manufacturer that first brought a stable form of ubiquinol to the market. That is not self-evident: ubiquinol reacts quickly with oxygen and then changes back into ubiquinone. That is why it is sealed off from air in this softgel, dissolved in MCT oil. MCT stands for medium-chain triglycerides, fats from coconut or palm kernel oil that your body processes relatively quickly. Because Q10 is fat-soluble, your body absorbs it better in combination with fat. Therefore, take the softgel with a meal that contains some fat, such as a breakfast with an egg or yogurt, or your dinner. Good to know: the softgel contains beef gelatin and beeswax and is therefore not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne last practical point: store the jar in a cool, dry place after opening and close the lid tightly. This way the softgels will stay in good condition until the last one. Choose a fixed time, for example with dinner, then the softgel will automatically become part of your routine. NOW Foods makes this product in a GMP-certified facility, an international standard for careful production and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 100mg variant is a logical choice if you want to start with ubiquinol.

Those who want to take 200mg have to swallow two or more softgels with most products. Here it is all in one. That makes daily use easier and your bottle lasts predictably. There is no official reference intake for Q10, because it is not a vitamin: your body produces it itself. That is why there is a double asterisk next to the dosage on the label. Good to know: you only get a few milligrams of Q10 per day from food on average. A dose of 200mg is far above that, and therefore it is wise to consult your doctor first in case of doubt or medication use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow ubiquinol compares to regular Q10\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoenzyme Q10 exists in two forms. Ubiquinone is the oxidized form, as you find it in most Q10 products. Ubiquinol is the reduced form, with two extra electrons.

As soon as it comes into contact with oxygen, it changes back into ubiquinone. Kaneka, the Japanese manufacturer of this raw material, has developed a method to keep ubiquinol stable, and NOW Foods packages it airtight in a softgel. Inside, it is dissolved in MCT oil, a fat from coconut or palm kernel oil. That is convenient, because Q10 is fat-soluble and needs fat to be well absorbed. Take the softgel with a meal that contains some fat. The softgel contains beef gelatin and beeswax, so it is not vegetarian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake the softgel every day with the same meal. A fixed place for the bottle helps with that, for example next to your breakfast items. Do store it cool and dry, and close the lid tightly.

You get it from your diet, for example from red meat, legumes, whole wheat bread and green leafy vegetables. Most of the iron in your body is in hemoglobin, the protein in your red blood cells that holds oxygen. Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin. Iron also contributes to normal oxygen transport in the body. In addition, iron contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Many people wonder how it is that women in particular think about extra iron more often. In short: through menstruation you lose some blood every month, and with it also iron. People who eat little or no meat are also often consciously aware of their iron intake. Iron from plants (non-heme iron) is taken up by your body less easily than iron from meat (heme iron).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe difference between iron bisglycinate and iron sulfate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference lies in how the iron is packaged. With iron sulfate, the classic form in many cheap tablets, the iron is in the form of a loose salt. That breaks down in your stomach and can react with substances from your diet. With iron bisglycinate, the iron atom is bound to two glycine molecules (a small amino acid). That binding is called a chelate, from the Greek word for claw. The iron is as if it is stuck in a little claw of amino acids. Ferrochel is the patented iron bisglycinate of the manufacturer Balchem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use this iron capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe label advises 1 capsule per day with a meal. Good to know: vitamin C from vegetables or fruit in the same meal increases the absorption of iron. It is better not to take coffee, tea and dairy exactly at the same time, because tannins and calcium inhibit the absorption. Keep an hour or two between your capsule and your cup of tea. If you take a calcium supplement or a multivitamin with a lot of calcium, spread those out over the day. And iron contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, plays a role in the cell division process and contributes to normal cognitive function. That breadth shows why iron appears in so many body processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOW Foods fills these capsules in the United States according to GMP guidelines (Good Manufacturing Practice). The capsule is made of cellulose, without gelatin. Please note: iron is dangerous for young children, so always keep the bottle out of their reach.

The plant grows in the Peruvian Andes at an altitude of 3500 to 4500 meters, where few other crops can survive. The local population has been eating the tuber for thousands of years, usually dried and cooked into porridge or drinks. Maca itself is primarily a food crop, rich in carbohydrates, as well as protein, fiber, and minerals. Characteristic of the root are substances that you find almost nowhere else. Think of macamides and macaeenes, fatty compounds that are typical of maca, and glucosinolates: the sulfur compounds that you also find in broccoli and Brussels sprouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat 6:1 and gelatinized mean\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 6:1 concentrate means that 6 parts maca root are needed for 1 part finished product. Per 750mg capsule, that comes down to 4500mg of root. The concentrate is also gelatinized. That sounds like gelatin, but it has nothing to do with it. Gelatinizing is a vegetarian process in which the manufacturer largely breaks down and removes the starch from the maca. What remains is more compact than regular maca powder, and the concentrate is easy to dose in a small capsule. The difference is therefore mainly in the concentration: you get more of the characteristic maca substances per capsule, with less starch as filler. By the way, in Peru people almost never eat maca raw. They first cook the dried tuber, and a part of the starch disappears during that process as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy people use maca\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Peru, maca has been eaten for centuries.

CoQ10 exists in two variants. Ubiquinone is the oxidized form, ubiquinol the reduced form (with two extra hydrogen atoms).

In Peru, people have traditionally made porridge, soup, and a fermented drink from it, called maca chicha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is in maca root\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDried maca is primarily a food. About 60 percent consists of carbohydrates, about 10 percent of protein, and the tuber also contains fiber, fatty acids, and minerals such as potassium and iron. In addition, you will find substances in it that are typical for maca. Macamides and macaenes are fatty compounds that researchers do not find anywhere else in the plant world. Glucosinolates are also present, sulfur-containing substances that you know from Brussels sprouts and broccoli. By the way, macamides are only truly formed during the drying of the tuber after harvest, so the traditional way of processing matters. Maca is a source of energy, supports physical and mental performance, and helps maintain endurance, mood, and vitality*.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhole root or concentrate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese capsules contain simply ground maca root, not an extract. That has an advantage: you get the root as it is, including the starch and the fiber. With 1 to 3 capsules, you take 500 to 1500mg of maca per day. Many people wonder whether it is better to take maca as a powder or in capsules. In short: powder is convenient for smoothies, but the earthy, slightly nutty taste is not everyone's favorite. In capsules you taste nothing and you know exactly how much you take. If you are looking for a higher dose per capsule, Now also has a 6:1 concentrate of 750mg. For an initial introduction, the regular root is a logical start: you won't find anything closer to what is served at the table in Peru.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSimply formulated\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than maca, a plant-based capsule of hypromellose and a pinch of plant-based magnesium stearate is not in it. Now makes the product without yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, or nuts. The color of the powder may vary slightly per batch, because it is a natural product. That says nothing about the quality, but only something about the harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: the regular, dried maca root from Peru, in a convenient capsule.

This lemon-flavored chewable tablet combines \u003cstrong\u003emethyl B12\u003c\/strong\u003e and methylfolate in a tablet you simply chew. Jarrow Formulas also adds vitamin B6 in the form of pyridoxal-5-phosphate. The result: three B vitamins in their active form, 100 tablets in a bottle, and only one tablet needed per day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThree B vitamins in active form\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference lies in the form. Methylcobalamin is the form of vitamin B12 that already has a methyl group (a small carbon block) attached to it. Many other supplements use cyanocobalamin. The same story applies to folate: this tablet contains (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the form that circulates in your blood, instead of synthetic folic acid. And the B6 is included as pyridoxal-5-phosphate, abbreviated P-5-P. That is the coenzyme form, so the form in which vitamin B6 does its work in your cells. In short: all three vitamins are included in their coenzyme or methyl form. Methylcobalamin also occurs naturally in animal products such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. Those who eat little or no animal products therefore get less B12 from their diet. That explains why vegans and vegetarians in particular often turn to a B12 supplement. This tablet is also completely plant-based, so it is a perfect fit for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow methyl B12, folate, and B6 work together\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou often come across these three vitamins together, and there is a reason for that. They act on the same process: the conversion of homocysteine, an amino acid that your body produces as an intermediate product. Vitamin B12 contributes to a normal metabolism of homocysteine, just like folate and vitamin B6. In addition, vitamin B12 contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the normal functioning of the nervous system. Folate plays a role in the cell division process. And vitamin B6 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Many people wonder why you wouldn't just take them separately. You certainly can, but in a tablet it is simpler if you want to supplement all three.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy a lemon chewable tablet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA chewable tablet partially dissolves in your mouth before you swallow it. For those who have difficulty swallowing capsules or tablets, that is a solution. The lemon flavor comes from natural flavoring and citric acid. For sweetness, Jarrow Formulas uses xylitol (a sugar alcohol you also find in chewing gum) and rebaudioside A from the stevia plant. Sugar is not on the ingredients list. What many people do not know: methyl B12 is red in color, so the small red dots in the tablet are simply the vitamin itself. With 1000mcg B12 and 400mcg folate per tablet, you are well above the reference intake for both vitamins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis B12 and folate combination is vegan and contains no gluten or other known allergens. A bottle of 100 chewable tablets lasts for over three months. Those who prefer another flavor will find a cherry version with higher dosages at Jarrow as well, but this lemon variant sticks to the classic combination of 1000mcg methyl B12, 400mcg methylfolate, and 1.5mg P-5-P.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jarrow Formulas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54826847469906,"sku":"Jarrow-002","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/Jarrow-002.jpg?v=1790248941"},{"product_id":"super-ubiquinol-coq10-100mg","title":"Super Ubiquinol CoQ10 100mg | 60 softgels | Life Extension","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSuper Ubiquinol CoQ10 by Life Extension\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAre you already taking coenzyme Q10, or would you like to know the difference between it and \u003cstrong\u003eubiquinol\u003c\/strong\u003e? Super Ubiquinol CoQ10 by Life Extension contains 100 mg of ubiquinol per softgel, sourced from the Japanese raw material manufacturer Kaneka. It also contains 100 mg of shilajit fulvic acid complex.

The name ubiquinone comes from the Latin word ubique, meaning everywhere. CoQ10 exists in two forms. Ubiquinone is the oxidized form, which you will find in most standard CoQ10 supplements. Ubiquinol is the reduced form: the same molecule, but with two additional hydrogen atoms. In your body, these two forms are constantly interconverting. The difference, therefore, is not that it is a different substance, but the state in which the molecule is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy ubiquinol is in a softgel with oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people wonder why ubiquinol is almost always in a softgel rather than a regular capsule. There are two reasons for this. CoQ10 dissolves in fat, not water, so oil is a logical carrier. Ubiquinol also reacts easily with oxygen, which can cause it to turn back into ubiquinone. A sealed softgel with sunflower oil keeps air out. Kaneka was the first company to bring a stable ubiquinol raw material to market, and Life Extension uses that very Kaneka Ubiquinol™. Take the softgel with a meal so that you have some fat in your stomach, just as you get CoQ10 from meat, fish, and nuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat shilajit does in this formula\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to ubiquinol, each softgel contains 100 mg of shilajit fulvic acid complex. Shilajit is a dark, resinous substance that slowly seeps out of rocks in mountainous regions such as the Himalayas. It is formed from plant remains that have broken down over a long period. Fulvic acid is one of the substances found in shilajit. Life Extension therefore calls this formula Super Ubiquinol to distinguish it from their ubiquinol without shilajit. The softgel also contains beeswax and sunflower lecithin for the proper structure, and annatto as a coloring agent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: Super Ubiquinol CoQ10 combines 100 mg of Kaneka ubiquinol with 100 mg of shilajit in a softgel with sunflower oil.
