CARTHAMUS + AMARANTHUS

Support for overall vitality: The combination of amaranthus and safflower is an excellent support for heart health and the whole cardiovascular system. First of all, these herbs help to regulate blood pressure, as they improve blood flow in veins and arteries (including coronary vessels). At the same time, they help to lower total cholesterol levels by increasing the level of its HDL fraction (the so-called “good cholesterol”). In this way, they prevent the formation of atherosclerotic plaques in the walls of blood vessels, and thus help to take care of the cardiovascular system in general. Moreover, both Carthamus tinctorius and Amaranthus caudatus exhibit antioxidant properties. The active compounds contained in these plants neutralize free radicals, which pose a threat to delicate cell structures such as DNA and mitochondria. They have a particularly beneficial effect on the state of the liver, as they not only protect this organ from the harmful effects of oxidative stress, but also reduce its susceptibility to certain toxins, while preventing liver fibrosis. All these properties contribute to strengthening the overall health of the body.

Supports the immune system: Safflower and amaranthus are commonly used in natural medicine as a support during infections. They exhibit antimicrobial properties – they inhibit the growth of pathogens that attack the body, including bacteria and fungi, among others. What’s more, both components of our synergistic formula show anti-inflammatory effects. Inflammation is a key part of the immune response, but when it is too intense or it lasts too long, it can have a detrimental effect on the condition of tissues, and can even be the cause of various ailments. The biologically active compounds contained in safflower and amaranthus help to regulate the intensity of inflammation, preventing it from spreading excessively, which is particularly beneficial for chronic conditions such as arthritis. At the same time, they strengthen the immune system, stimulating natural defense mechanisms that work against pathogenic microorganisms. The results of the studies show that the active substances contained in Carthamus tinctorius enhance the proliferation of lymphocytes – cells that are responsible for identifying and neutralizing threats. In addition, they increase the activity of these lymphocytes, whose task is to destroy the body’s own abnormal cells. It has also been proven that Amaranthus caudatus can reduce the production of immunoglobulin E, thereby alleviating some allergic reactions. Our formula therefore helps to ensure balanced activity of the immune system.

Diet control: The plants that make up the synergistic combination of CARTHAMUS + AMARANTHUS can effectively help to get rid of excessive body mass. The active substances contained in these plants help to reduce the activity of ghrelin. Ghrelin is a hormone produced by stomach cells. Its main function is to induce feelings of hunger and stimulate the production of adipocytes – fat cells. Safflower’s active compounds reduce the expression of genes encoding ghrelin, while compounds found in amaranth inhibit its production. Thus, our synergistic formula contributes to appetite reduction and helps to maintain healthy eating habits. What’s more, Carthamus tinctorius extract facilitates a shift in metabolism so that fats are used more intensively as an energy source, helping to use up energy reserves stored as body fat more efficiently.
