Organic Horse Chestnut Complex with Red Vine Leaf and Acerola - 120 Capsules

Three plant powers working together

Horse chestnut and red vine leaf have been proven plants in European herbal medicine for centuries. The synergistic combination of horse chestnut extract with the natural plant compound aescin, red vine leaf extract with valuable polyphenols, and acerola with natural vitamin C is based on the traditional use of these plants.

All ingredients in our organic horse chestnut complex come from certified organic cultivation and are free from undesirable additives.

Alternative dietary sources of vitamin C and polyphenols

Vitamin C and polyphenols are present in many fruits and vegetables. Polyphenols are mostly found just under the skin and are secondary plant compounds known for their role in the plant’s defence system. Especially red and dark berries, citrus fruits and sweet potatoes have a high vitamin C content. Secondary plant compounds are found in all plant foods. Wholegrain products and green leafy vegetables are particularly recommended.

Simple and reliable: vegan capsules with standardised plant extracts

Our organic horse chestnut complex with red vine leaf combines carefully selected plant extracts with natural vitamin C from acerola. Each vegan capsule contains a precisely standardised amount of the active substances aescin and polyphenols – for consistent quality and efficacy.

The convenient capsule form makes daily use easy and is ideal for anyone who values natural ingredients and certified organic cultivation.

Far‑travelled and homecomers united in a mission

The horse chestnut originally grew throughout Europe. This soapberry-family species survived the last Ice Age only in the Balkans. It only returned to Central Europe at the end of the 16th century. The trees can live up to 300 years. In naturopathy, not only the seeds but also the flowers, leaves and bark of the chestnut trees are used for various applications. The name “horse chestnut” may trace back to their use as horse feed during the Ottoman campaigns.

The leaves of the red grapevine have been known since antiquity as a natural remedy. Their deep red colour appears with the natural autumn leaf colouring. Red grapevines are cultivated in southern and central Europe, South Africa and Australia.

The acerola cherry is not actually a cherry but belongs to the Malpighiaceae. These plants are native primarily to South and Central America, but also to Hawaii and Jamaica. The red drupes are among the best natural sources of vitamin C and are therefore considered a superfood.
