Iron in the form of iron bisglycinate has good bioavailability. It is a chelated form of iron bound to two (bis) molecules of the amino acid glycine which has more benefits for the body. Iron is an important element that plays a role in, among other things, the production of hemoglobin in the red blood cells. As a result, iron plays a role in oxygen transport in the body. Iron is also important for energy-yielding metabolism.

The Jerusalem artichoke, also known as topinambur, tuberous sunflower or Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus), is a perennial plant belonging to the composite family. This plant is grown in both ornamental and vegetable gardens and thrives in the Dutch climate, where it tends to spread widely. Mowing the plant is not sufficient to remove the tubers, as they survive.
As the name Jerusalem artichoke suggests, the underground parts, also called root tubers, are used. These tubers contain fructans, biotin, calcium, iron, sodium and inulin. Moreover, it is certain that they do not store nitrates.

The juniper berry (Juniperus communis) is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, which occur naturally in its berries. These antioxidants protect our body cells against harmful influences such as pollution and sunlight. In addition, they support digestion and contribute to healthy kidney function and fluid balance.
The juniper is a conifer native to Europe, Asia and America. This tree bears flowers and berries at the same time, which can be green and black. The name Juniperus is derived from the Celtic word 'juneprus', meaning rough, prickly or bitter, and 'communis' meaning plain. Since ancient times, the berries have been used by Greeks and Romans for their health benefits.

Kelp, a member of the brown algae (Laminariales) family, thrives in the cold waters of the major oceans. This large species of seaweed is an excellent source of iodine, an essential element for healthy thyroid function in humans.
In Asia, especially Japan, seaweed has been an integral part of the daily diet for centuries. A well-known kelp species is kombu (Laminaria japonica), which is often cooked with rice for sushi. In addition to being one of the largest plants in the world, kelp is known for growing extremely quickly, sometimes up to three meters per day.

Cat's whisker (Orthosiphon aristatus), also known as Kumis Kutjing, has played an important role in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries due to its beneficial properties in treating urinary tract infections.
This plant belongs to the Lamiaceae family and thrives mainly in tropical and subtropical regions, preferring locations such as wetlands, along rivers and swamps, especially in Southeast Asia, especially Malaysia and Java. The name "cat's whisker" is derived from the white or lilac flowers with striking, thread-like stamens, sometimes up to 3 cm long.

Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid with various functions in the body. Although the body can synthesize arginine from glutamine and proline, its own production is often not sufficient. That is why it is important to get arginine through food or supplements. Dietary sources of arginine include nuts, seeds, legumes and meat.
Arginine was first isolated from food in the nineteenth century. Nowadays it is often used as a supplement by people with an active and sporty lifestyle.

L-Carnitine is often considered an amino acid because of its similar molecular structure. The body uses carnitine for fat burning and as an energy source for the heart muscle. Athletes and people who train intensively often need extra carnitine.
Men generally have a higher need for carnitine than women. L-carnitine is closely related to the B vitamins. The word 'carnitine' comes from the Latin 'carne', which means 'meat'. Carnitine occurs naturally in meat, while the amount of carnitine in plant foods is negligible. Although the body itself can produce carnitine from lysine and methionine, this production is often insufficient when the need is increased.

L-Glutamine is a semi-essential amino acid, which means that our body cannot produce it sufficiently in certain situations, such as during intensive sports practice. Athletes and people who train intensively often have an increased need for glutamine.
Glutamine occurs naturally in meat, fish and dairy. However, these sources are sometimes not sufficient to meet the increased needs, so supplementation may be necessary. In addition to animal sources, we also find glutamine in plant-based, protein-rich foods such as beans, grains and some vegetables.
Glutamine, like all amino acids, plays a crucial role in various biochemical processes in our body. Amino acids are often referred to as the 'building blocks of life'. 

Glutathione is a tripeptide consisting of the amino acids glutamic acid, glycine and cysteine. It functions as a powerful antioxidant and neutralizes free radicals. This essential compound is found in all our cells, tissues, body fluids and organ systems, so it is present virtually everywhere in our body.
Physical exercise increases glutathione levels in the blood and skeletal muscles. However, intensive sports activity also consumes a lot of glutathione.
Glutathione is a versatile multitasker, but is vulnerable to the influence of our modern lifestyle. Fortunately, there is a natural way to support the body in the production of glutathione. Through supplementation or a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables and lean protein, we can maintain normal glutathione levels.

Lysine is an essential amino acid, meaning the body cannot produce it itself and must therefore obtain it from food or supplements. Lysine is found in meat, vegetables and fruit, among other things. It plays a role in various biochemical processes in the body. For example, L-lysine helps with the absorption of calcium and is a building block for the production of proteins.

Selenium is an essential mineral that plays a role in various processes in our body. It is bound to methionine, an essential sulfur amino acid. This powerful mineral supports the thyroid, promotes fertility in men and contributes to healthy hair and nails. As an antioxidant, it protects our immune system and helps protect healthy tissues and cells in our body against oxidative damage.
We can get selenium from food, both plant and animal sources. The amount of selenium in plant foods can vary depending on the amount of selenium in the soil in which the plants grow. In order not to be dependent on varying factors, it can be useful to take a selenium supplement.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid, which means that the body cannot produce it itself and must therefore get it from food or supplementation. Tryptophan is found in meat, vegetables and fruit, among other things. Tryptophan is the only precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Tryptophan also has several other functions.

Lactoferrin, a natural substance present in breast milk and various body fluids, is composed of the words "lacto", referring to milk, and "ferrin", referring to iron. It acts as a protein that binds iron and is mainly located in mucous membranes, nasal and respiratory tracts and the gastrointestinal tract. This property is beneficial because it helps sequester iron, which prevents bad bacteria from thriving in the intestines. Lactoferrin plays several roles in our bodies and although our bodies can produce it in limited quantities, as humans we mainly receive large amounts shortly after birth.

Lady's mantle (Alchemilla vulgaris) is a genus of about a thousand species of perennial herbaceous and shrubby plants belonging to the rose family (Rosaceae). It is mainly found in Europe and Asia, with some species in the mountainous areas of Africa, North and South America. Lady's mantles thrive in disturbed and usually damp places, such as forest edges, wet grasslands and roadsides.
