Medicinal herbs and plant extracts: a passion for well-being, a passion for nature
adaptogen spray
Our seriousness and professionalism are our hallmarks, the outcome of a long tradition centred on the use of aromatic and medicinal herbs for personal well-being. The course we have pursued has taught us to know the intimate nature of plants and we have gained the knowledge that allows us to supply plants and extracts that are selected, processed and packaged with innovative techniques which respect the characteristics of the raw material as provided by nature. Our vegetable raw materials are: • healthy and selectively chosen, originating in suitable zones and harvested during the balsamic phase, and dehydrated according to natural methods; • checked, selected and cleansed with the aid of qualified personnel and machinery of the latest generation; • stored in decontaminated environments, thermo-hygrometrically standardized, specifically designed to reduce to a minimum the impact of environmental factors on the quality of the dehydrated plants; • certified under the Quality management system ISO 9000:2001, the HACCP self-regulation system and an internal service of quality control that ensures the safety and traceability of all the plants. ™

The care that makes the difference: means low impact technologies that respect the delicate balance that exists between the active ingredients present in the plant
Plant storage: where the plants do not age but “rest” drawing in positive energy The area devoted to the storage of herbs, constructed according to the principles of geobiology and completely decontaminated of Hartmann nodes and geo-pathogenic fields, is furnished with a pyramidal superstructure oriented north-south and east-west, whose proportions are based on the aureate section, allowing the plant to live in a bio-architecturally harmonious environment, able to avoid the exhaustion of the plant’s natural energy, and “recharge it.” All the structures are provided with temperature and humidity control systems that ensure the best thermo-hygrometric conditions. The special layout of the environment allows lighting conditions that ensure the stability of the pigments and the active ingredients against degradation and photo-oxidisation.
Extraction by ultrasound: as delicate as a breath, as powerful as an explosion Specifically developed for the extraction of the active ingredients of plants, ultrasound technology allows the complete extraction of the drug while conserving the integrity of all the phytocomplex, be they thermolabile (proteins, amino acids, vitamins and enzymes etc.), thermostable, water-soluble and fat-soluble.

Informed vitalised water: more than a simple solvent
adaptogen spray
Water of itself is not an amorphous molecule. It links up with many other molecules, creating interactions called “hydrogen bridges” to form a network structure that permits it to gather, store and transmit information. Spring water has its own typical structure which, introduced into the delivery cycle of drinkable water, is compromised by phenomenon such as the pressure in the piping, canalisation, the introduction of chemical substances and heavy metals. The procedure of the vitalisation of water takes place through a technology based on the transmission of oscillatory information and allows the recovery of the original memory of the spring water. Products prepared using vitalised water display improved qualities of conservation, greater stability even following microbiological modifications, greater self-purifying power, improved solvency power and improved organoleptic characteristics (freshness, taste, odour).

Adaptogens: the heart of Adaptha Adaptogens are specific plants to combat the negative effects of stress, both for preventive purposes and to aid recovery from an already existing situation. The physiological purpose of stress is to prepare (adapt) the organism to react to physical and psychophysical stimuli when these, in terms of duration and seriousness, are perceived as dangers. The stress reaction is a non-specific reaction by the organism to outside stimuli such as illness, certain phases of the reproductive cycle (pregnancy, birth, breast-feeding), lack of sleep, emotional causes, which are generically associated with disorders such as anxiety, insomnia, irritability, difficulty concentrating, dietary imbalance, tiredness and depression. During stress reactions, there are biological and hormonal changes and modifications to the autonomic nervous and immune systems, which tend to improve the response (the level of resistance or defence) of the organism both in terms of behaviour and biology. The response of adaptation is at its greatest in young people from 20 to 30 years old, while it is reduced by half after 70. The stress reaction can be too intense or too long, the physiological mechanisms of re-balancing our organism can prove to be insufficient and out of kilter. This results in a constant feeling of tiredness, apathy and lack of vitality; difficulty in remembering, lack of productivity in studies or intellectual work, difficulty in sustaining concentration; constant tension which prevents restorative sleep

and reduces the ability to recover. Faced with a situation of “exhaustion” of this type, plants defined as “adaptogens” prove to be extremely useful.
The term “adaptogen” indicates something able to produce a general improvement in the psychophysical condition: an increased resistance to fatigue, regulation of the metabolic functions, improvement in the cognitive capacity; it was coined in 1975 by the Swedish Herbal Institute, at the conclusion of research carried out of the Rhodiola rosea, to explain the actions of this very interesting class of plant in the face of stress. Belonging to this category are ginseng (Panax ginseng), eleutherococcus senticosus, echinacea angustifolia, schizandra chinensis, hawthorn (Crategus oxyacantha), Rhodiola rosea, whose properties have been widely demonstrated.
The Adaptha formulations use a balanced combination of the main adaptogens of traditional use, which are “catalysed” according to the effect sought with plants and specific extracts, in order to direct the effect of the preparation towards the resolution of the disturbance being dealt with. ™

Sublingual oral spray: the speed of Adaptha Adaptha combines a particular and unique blend of plants with the innovative form of the sublingual oral spray, which, in comparison with the normal forms of administration, allows a more rapid and efficient administration. The zone between the lower palate and the tongue is bathed by blood vessels and the mucous membrane is very thin. All this aids the passage of the active ingredients from outside to the blood. The sublingual blood circulation reverses in the superior vena cava and therefore the active ingredients are distributed at the systemic level without passing through the liver, the organ in which the first transformation and elimination of the greater part of the active ingredients takes place.

It is still well known for its use to aid the performance of the Russian athletes at the Moscow Olympics and for cosmonauts during long periods in space.

It has been demonstrated that administration brings a calming effect on the central nervous system, being especially indicated in cases of sleep disturbances and in conditions characterised by excessive emotionality and anxiety, in stress and in the menopause. The studies carried out show an important action on the cardiovascular system with a real improvement in resistance to exertion. Actions: invigorating, antidiarrhoeal, hypotensive and cardiotonic.
Schisandra (Schisandra chinensis)
The Chinese name, “Wu Wei Zi” means “plant with 5 flavours” because according to the system of traditional Chinese medicine, this plant contains all the flavours that regulate the effects of food on the body. Representative experiments showing the adaptogen action of Schisandra were conducted in the Soviet Union with volunteers from various professions. The results were extremely positive with an improvement in performance both physical and intellectual with greater clarity of action and greater resistance to fatigue. Actions: detoxicant, tonic, astringent, adaptogen, stimulant, hepatoprotective antioxidant.

The first scientific studies on Rodiola date back to the first half of the last century, when groups of Russian scientists began to observe the effects of this plant; it was only in the early years of the sixties that information on the benefits and property of Rodiola were made public in the western world. Actions: adaptogen, anti-stress, useful in the control of body weight when associated with a balanced diet.
