Gemmotherapy is a branch of phytotherapy, developed in the 1960s, which uses the buds and young shoots of plants. Developed by Dr Pol Henry, a Belgian physician and phytotherapist, gemmotherapy is based on the totipotency of plant embryonic cells, that is, their ability to differentiate and give rise to all parts of the plant (branches, leaves, flowers, fruits…), as well as all of its functional tissues and organs.
This is why buds have a particularly high concentration of primary and secondary metabolites. Primary metabolites are essential for plant development: nucleic acids, amino acids, sugars, minerals, as well as phytohormones (auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, abscisic acid), responsible for initiating and regulating the growth of plants and trees. Secondary metabolites (polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, phenolic acids, iridoids, etc.) are involved in the defense, adaptation, and protection mechanisms of the plant. It is this richness in metabolites that gives gemmotherapy its particular interest.
The GemmoPure® concentrated macerates from Laboratoire THERASCIENCE are prepared according to the traditional method of Dr Pol Henry, by macerating the buds in a mixture of three complementary solvents in equal parts: 1/3 water, 1/3 ORGANIC alcohol, and 1/3 ORGANIC glycerin, for a minimum duration of 21 days, followed by a filtration step. This combination of solvents allows for optimal and complete extraction of the active molecules from the buds.
Using advice
5 to 10 drops, 2 to 3 times a day, taken neat or diluted in a little water, 30 minutes before meals or 2 hours after meals, for 3 weeks per month, as advised by your doctor.
Precautions for use:
Contains alcohol: 30.0% vol.
For adults only.
Not recommended for people with oedematous heart or kidney failure.
Excessive consumption may have a laxative effect.
Food supplements should be used as part of a healthy lifestyle and not as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily doses. Keep the product out of reach of young children.
