Description

Do you feel completely worn out, tired and listless? The detox infusion* may help support your body's own cleansing so that you can gather new strength for everyday life and make full use of your energy again.

In the special detox infusion, a combination of nutrients – ascorbic acid (vitamin C), glutathione, B complex, selenium and others – is intended to activate the body's self-cleansing powers.

Treat your body to the detox infusion in a relaxed atmosphere.

Possible ingredients

B complex

B vitamins are water-soluble and cannot be stored in the body; any excess is excreted in the urine, so we depend on a regular supply. The B group comprises eight vitamins: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 and B12. Their tasks are varied and complex. Vitamin B12 plays a special role because it is found almost exclusively in animal foods. B vitamins are important for hormone production, influence blood circulation, are involved in carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism and contribute to blood formation and healthy nerve function.

Glutathione

Glutathione is a sulphur-containing tripeptide made of glutamic acid, glycine and cysteine. It is produced in the liver, is an important water-soluble cellular antioxidant and an important enzyme cofactor, and is present in every cell of the body. Glutathione is involved in many metabolic processes: it protects the structure of proteins, promotes the transport of amino acids through cell membranes and plays an outstanding role in the antioxidant protection system. As a co-substrate of glutathione peroxidase it neutralises peroxides that inevitably occur in the body and increase under oxidative stress, protecting cell and mitochondrial membranes from damage by reactive oxygen species. Glutathione also helps convert oxidised vitamins C and E back into their active form and helps immune cells form leukotrienes, which control white blood cell functions during immune responses.

Selenium

Selenium is a vital trace element that supports many functions in the body. It contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the thyroid, protects cells from oxidative stress and plays a role in maintaining healthy hair and nails. Selenium also supports normal sperm formation. An adequate supply can be particularly important for certain groups – such as vegetarians, vegans, dialysis patients or people with a one-sided diet or impaired nutrient absorption. In such cases targeted supplementation may make sense, ideally after medical advice.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C, also called ascorbic acid, is one of the best-known vitamins. It acts as a strong antioxidant and protects cells from free radicals. It also supports the normal function of the immune system, especially during and after physical exertion, and plays an important role in collagen formation – for skin, bones, teeth and blood vessels. Vitamin C is also important for energy metabolism, psychological function and the nervous system. It helps to reduce tiredness, improves iron absorption and regenerates the reduced form of vitamin E. Older people and smokers in particular should make sure they get enough, as they are more often deficient. Vitamin C is found mainly in fresh vegetables and fruit such as peppers, citrus fruit, berries and kiwis.

Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 (also called cobalamin) is a water-soluble vitamin involved in numerous metabolic processes – including the breakdown of fatty acids and the use of folic acid, which makes it indispensable for blood formation. As vitamin B12 occurs only in animal foods, a deficiency can develop more easily on a vegan diet. A deficiency often develops gradually and can go unnoticed for years because the body's stores empty slowly.

Sodium chloride (NaCl)

Salt, i.e. sodium chloride (NaCl), is vital for the human body. Table salt is the main source of sodium and chloride, which are essential for fluid balance, the nervous system and blood pressure regulation. Sodium chloride protects cells from drying out and is responsible for passing on signals in nerve cells. No cell in our body could exist without salt.

Who is the Detox Infusion suitable for?

The detox infusion is suitable if you feel exhausted, drained or low on energy and want to give your body targeted support. It can help increase your general well-being and make you feel more vital again.

Ideal for people who lead an active life, like to treat themselves regularly and want to supplement their nutrient supply. Given directly into the vein, the body can absorb the nutrients particularly efficiently.
