Lungwort - Pulmonaria officinalis
Lungwort, belonging to the genus Pulmonaria in the rough-leaved family (Boraginaceae), owes its botanical name to the Latin word 'pulmo', which means 'lung'. This is because of the similarity that was seen between the drawing on the leaves of the spotted lungwort and (diseased) human lungs. According to the signature theory, the plant was previously used as a remedy for lung diseases because of this similarity. The Dutch name 'pulmonary herb' is directly derived from the botanical name, and this name also occurs in several other Western European languages.

Calcium Bisglycinate - 480 mg
Calcium is available in different forms, one of the better forms being calcium bisglycinate. Calcium bisglycinate has good bioavailability. It is a chelated form of calcium bound to two (bis) molecules of the amino acid glycine, which has more benefits for the body. Calcium is also involved in many body processes, including blood clotting, energy metabolism, muscles, bones, teeth, digestion, nervous system and cell division.
Today, many minerals are available in their inorganic form as nutritional supplements, such as oxides, carbonates and sulphates. However, these forms are poorly absorbed by our body. In nature, minerals occur in bioavailable forms, packaged in proteins, to prevent them from binding to other food components. This significantly increases their bioavailability.
