Collection: Gemmoderivatives

The use of gem macerates is relatively recent. In fact, only a few decades have passed since the Belgian Pol Henry understood the significance of the use of these preparations for human well-being. Our company was born producing bud extracts, applying the criteria contained in the French Pharmacopoeia. But let's proceed in order by explaining what gem macerates are and how they are made. Gem macerates aim to recreate a healthy balance in the human organism, using extracts of fresh plant tissues in the process of growth. These embryonic tissues (buds, young shoots, etc.) are very active because they maintain the total anabolic faculties of the primitive vegetal cell of that plant. It is able to develop all the potential of the plant itself, a characteristic that differentiated adult cells no longer have. We can grasp the scope and value of these products if we understand the meaning of the tree for the creator himself: "The tree is the most gigantic vegetal proliferation towards the light and the set of its leaves offers the largest contact surface with the atmosphere. The tree is the largest photosynthetic workshop and its bud is the best synthesis of its embryonic adaptation to the largest production." (Pol Henry). Bud macerates are obtained by maceration in hydroglyceralcohol solvent (water + alcohol + glycerin) of fresh plant embryonic tissues. The following are used from the plant: buds, young shoots, young roots, buds, catkins, internal rinds of young branches and roots, seeds and any other embryonic tissue. The plant tissues used are all of meristematic origin which expresses a unique concept: the plant embryonic tissue. Pol Henry takes into consideration the Middle European forest and only the tree and shrub layer. This criterion presents us with the immense advantage of using exclusively plants from the geographical area in which we live.
