The chemical medicine is synthesized from a single class of molecules.
In the plant, there is a large number of different molecules that act in harmony. Some molecules have, for example, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, while others help to transport the active ingredients to the site of action, or even protect against any unwanted side effects.
Instead of a single action, in the plant there are permanent intense interactions between a variety of active ingredients that act synergistically.
Specialization in Production: Cryocrushing
The method by which we preserve all the active ingredients of the plant
The plant is a repository of diverse active ingredients, but it is also a living and fragile species. To obtain all the benefits from the plant, special precautions are required.
To ensure the optimal quality and quantity of active ingredients, we must preserve and protect them throughout the entire production chain. The easiest and best way to obtain the full properties of a plant is to convert it into powder through the process of cryocrushing.
This unique and highly efficient process involves grinding (converting into powder) the part of the plant that contains the active ingredients at extremely low temperatures in an atmosphere of liquid nitrogen. Nitrogen, which is chemically inert and naturally present in the air, protects the plant components from air oxidation while the cold prevents the degradation of properties caused by conventional grinding due to heat.
In this way, all sensitive substances (vitamins, enzymes, volatile substances, etc.) are not degraded by heat, and we thus collect an extremely fine and homogeneous powder.
The total powder is always more effective than the extract
Many herbal medicines in capsule form are made from dry extracts of the plant. Although some are of good quality, in reality, with the use of dry extract of a plant, we do not have all the active ingredients of the plant nor the synergistic action of the components of that plant.
In contrast to the dry extract of a plant, with cryocrushing as followed in Arkocaps,the total powder of the plant undergoes no chemical processing and represents the form closest to the plant's natural state.
The use of the total plant powder is particularly suitable for encapsulation.
The right advice for effective phytotherapy
Always seek products that contain the total plant powder, such as Arkocaps, the gentle form closest to the plant's natural state.
