Healing power of buds: gemmotherapy

1. Gemmotherapy? No chemotherapy! It is a form of phytotherapy, in which buds or other fast-growing plant parts, including young shoots and hair roots of trees and shrubs, are used as a drainage medium for all kinds of ailments. These fresh buds are macerated with alcohol and glycerine. We then get a concentrated herbal tincture.

Gemmotherapy

1. Analyzes show that these fast-growing plant parts and the extracts from them contain a large amount of plant growth hormones and other growth substances in addition to enzymes and amino acids. These substances exhibit a strong biological effect in our body. This has been demonstrated by scientific research. The scientists also discovered that gemmotherapy causes a stimulation of the RES. (our immune system), this effect can be measured using the "Halpern test". The RES, reticuloendothelial system plays an important role in the excretion of the accumulated toxins in organs. One of the main working areas of gemmotherapy is therefore "drainage" or stimulating the body to excrete these toxic substances.
