Alg Pharma Hydrofem 30 tablets

The food supplement Alg Pharma Hydrofem 30 tablets is a product that contains nettle herb extract, green tea leaf extract, prickly pear extract, grape seed extract, dandelion root extract and goldenrod extract.

The common nettle (Urtica dioica) is a plant in the nettle family. It is often referred to as a weed because of its bare leaves. However, it has many beneficial properties. It is used for food, health, and cosmetic purposes, as well as for the production of plant fiber. It has a positive effect on the urinary tract and increases water excretion through the kidneys. It supports skin cleansing [ID 2766] and revitalizes the body [ID 2152].

Green tea, also known as Chinese tea , contains catechins, which have a wide range of health-promoting effects. One of these effects is the maintenance of normal cholesterol [ID 1113] and blood sugar levels [ID 1115]. Thus, it contributes to the maintenance of normal body weight. It also supports the function of the digestive system [ID 1118] and contributes to the protection of DNA from oxidative stress [ID 1120].

The prickly pear cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) is a plant native to Mexico, but is also widely cultivated in Europe in areas with a similar climate. Its compounds reduce appetite and influence the absorption of fats and glucose. As a result, it supports weight loss. It also has laxative properties and, in particular, helps reduce the side effects of alcohol consumption [ID 2791].

Grape seed extract (Vitis vinifera) is a good antioxidant, meaning it scavengers free oxygen radicals from cells. This is due to the presence of oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs). The grapevine itself is a plant rich in valuable ingredients. It also influences body weight and helps reduce it [ID 2735].

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) is a plant belonging to a very broad group of dandelion species. It is used as a food, medicinal, honey, and fodder plant. They contribute to the normal function of the stomach and liver [ID 3609], including stimulating the release of bile [ID 2570]. They influence carbohydrate metabolism and lower blood sugar levels. Furthermore, dandelion has prebiotic effects [ID 4315] that support the digestive tract in cases of possible gastrointestinal disturbances.

Goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea), also known as mimosa, belongs to the daisy family. It is native to Europe and Asia. In Poland, it is commonly found in meadows and fallow land. It is little known that it has diuretic effects and promotes normal urine flow upstream of the lower urinary tract [ID 3823]. It is also an adaptogen, helping the body adapt to different environmental conditions [ID 3591]. Furthermore, it is an antioxidant [ID 3824].

In summary, Alg Pharma Hydrofem 30 tablets is a food supplement that, thanks to its content of natural medicinal plant and herbal extracts, contributes to the detoxification of the body and supports weight control thanks to its diuretic effect.
