Even amber glass offers a high level of protection against light. Violet glass protects even better against ultraviolet radiation in sunlight and absorbs most of it. This means that the ointment in the glass jar is optimally protected from light and helps to preserve the color, smell and properties of the ingredients of this natural product.
We attach great importance to protecting our products in the best possible way to extend their shelf life. In addition, a glass jar is not only of higher quality, but also much more sustainable than those made of plastic. We are therefore taking a big step in the right direction and making a significant contribution to the environment. As the violet glass jar is dishwasher-safe, you can reuse it at any time and store earrings or your favorite necklace in it, for example. However, if you do not wish to do this, you can of course dispose of the glass jar in the green glass container.

We do not use any artificial additives in our products. As a matter of principle, we do not use gelatine, magnesium stearate or microcrystalline cellulose. Any capsule shells used are purely plant-based. Our products are manufactured without chemical preservatives, genetic engineering, flavorings or colorings.
The sale of Artemisia annua as a food or food supplement is currently not permitted within Germany or the EU. The reason for this is the EU Novel Food Regulation from 2015, which regulates the import and sale of products that were only sold in small quantities in Europe before May 15, 1997.
However, Artemisia annua (annual mugwort) itself is not affected by this ban and has not been classified as harmful to health. The cultivation, sale and processing of the plant are therefore not prohibited. What is currently prohibited, however, is the designation and marketing of Artemisia annua as a "food supplement" within the EU.
The Artemisia annua processed or offered by us is a pure plant raw material, expressly without intended use (no food and no food ingredient)! Please bear this in mind when using/processing the raw material.
