Phosphatidylcholine is a concentrated form of lecithin and is more stable and has a longer shelf life than lecithin alone. It is a phospholipid that occurs naturally in cell membranes and in foods such as eggs, soy, and certain nuts. Phosphatidylcholine provides choline, a nutrient recognized as essential by the Dutch Health Council. In the body, it is primarily found in the outer leaflet of cell membranes and can be transported by specific proteins, such as phosphatidylcholine transfer protein (PCTP).

Propolis, the secret weapon of the bee colony, is used to protect the hive or hive against bacteria and fungi and as 'cement' to close the openings. It is a natural brown-red substance consisting of vegetable resins, beeswax, essential oils and pollen, with traces of vitamins and minerals.
From June onwards, honey bees collect resin from the buds and leaves of trees and herbaceous plants on warm days. They mix this with their saliva and process it with their paws, ultimately creating propolis.

Single tincture made with Propolis.
Propolis is a natural, reddish-brown substance produced by honeybees. Within the hive, bees use propolis as a building and sealing material, among other things, to close openings and strengthen the hive's structure.
Honeybees collect propolis starting in the summer on warm days by gathering resins from the buds and leaves of trees and other plants. These resins are mixed with beeswax and processed with saliva and the bees' legs, creating propolis.
Propolis consists of a combination of plant resins, beeswax, essential oils, and pollen, along with small amounts of vitamins and minerals. The composition can vary depending on the plants in the hive's environment.

Psyllium husk comes from the seeds of the Plantago psyllium plant. These seeds are largely fiber-rich and are often used as an ingredient in nutritional products and supplements. Psyllium contains both soluble and insoluble fiber.
The seed consists of over 80% fiber, of which approximately 70% is soluble and 30% is insoluble. When psyllium husk comes into contact with water, it forms a gel-like substance that can absorb a significant amount of fluid. Therefore, it is important to drink plenty of water when using psyllium.
Because of these properties, psyllium is often used in products intended to supplement daily fiber intake.

Quercetin is a flavonoid (also called a bioflavonoid) that occurs naturally in various plants, fruits, and vegetables. Flavonoids are responsible for the vibrant colors in plants and contribute to various biochemical processes, such as regulating growth and protecting against UV light, oxidation, and heat.
Rutin is also a flavonoid found in citrus fruits, grapes, apple and pear peels, apricots, raspberries, onions, asparagus, tea, rhubarb, blueberries, and elderberries. Like other flavonoids, rutin contributes to the color and pigmentation of plants and plays a role in their metabolism and protection from environmental influences.
Quercetin and rutin are often studied together because of their presence in many fruits and vegetables and their role as natural plant compounds.
