Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus) is a plant belonging to the verbena family, occurring naturally in Europe, North Africa and Central Asia. Its small, spherical fruits are full of beneficial phytonutrients. For this reason, Chasteberry is considered a medicinal plant and its fruits have been a valued herbal raw material for many years.
Chasteberry fruit extract is a source of many biologically active ingredients that have a positive effect - especially on the female body. Among them there are large amounts of beneficial iridoid glycosides, diterpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, as well as essential oils. Aucubin and agnuside, belonging to iridoid glycosides, are the main active ingredients for which chasteberry extracts are standardized.
How does Chasteberry work?
The active ingredients contained in chasteberry support the proper course of the menstrual cycle and relieve the symptoms of premenstrual tension. They also contribute to the maintenance of a woman's hormonal balance during menopause, which helps to alleviate negative symptoms and improves physical and mental well-being. Therefore, Chasteberry is considered a typically "female herb" with benefits at almost every stage of life.
What standardization and origin of the extract?
When planning supplementation with chaste plant, it is worth paying attention to standardization, i.e. the power of the extract. Supplement manufacturers often use non-standardized extracts based only on the DER value or base their products not on the extract, but on dried, powdered plant material with a much lower content of active ingredients.
The extract contained in our product comes from a reputable European producer and is characterized by high, double standardization for agnoside (0.4%) and Aukubin (0.4%). This means that each 100 mg of the extract contained in our product contains 0.4 mg of agnoside and 0.4 mg of aukubin, which are the two main active ingredients of the Chasteberry fruit.
Aliness Niepokalanek 500 mg does not contain any animal ingredients, making it a product suitable for vegans. The product does not contain any artificial technological additives, preservatives or dyes.
