Alg Pharma Hydrofem 30 tablets

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

Common nettle (Urtica dioica) is a plant from the nettle family. It is often considered a weed due to the presence of rough hairs on its leaves. However, it has many qualities. It is used as an edible, health, cosmetic plant and for the extraction of plant fibers. It has a beneficial effect on the urinary tract and increases water excretion by the kidneys. It facilitates skin cleansing [ID 2766] and revitalizes the body [ID 2152].

Green tea, also known as Chinese tea, contains catechins that have many health benefits. One of these actions is maintaining normal cholesterol levels [ID 1113] and blood glucose [ID 1115]. It thus contributes to maintaining a normal body weight. It also supports the functioning of the digestive system [ID 1118] and helps protect DNA against oxidative stress [ID 1120].

Prickly pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) is a plant native to Mexico, although it is also widespread in Europe in regions with a similar climate. The ingredients it contains reduce appetite and affect the absorption of fats and glucose. Therefore, it promotes weight loss. Additionally, it has laxative properties, notably helping to reduce the side effects of alcohol consumption [ID 2791].

Grape seed extract (Vitis vinifera) is a good antioxidant, meaning it removes oxygen free radicals from cells. This is possible thanks to the presence of oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC). The vine itself is a plant full of valuable ingredients. It also influences body weight, helping to reduce it [ID 2735].

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) is a plant that belongs to a very large group of dandelions. They are used as edible, medicinal, melliferous, and fodder plants. They contribute to the normal functioning of the stomach and liver [ID 3609], notably by stimulating bile release [ID 2570]. They influence carbohydrate metabolism and lower blood glucose levels. Additionally, dandelion has prebiotic effects [ID 4315], supporting the digestive tract in case of possible gastrointestinal disorders.

Goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea) or mimosa is a member of the aster family. It is found in Europe and Asia. In Poland, it is often found in meadows and wastelands. Few people know that it has diuretic effects and promotes urine flow in the lower urinary tract [ID 3823]. It is also an adaptogen, which helps the body adapt to different environmental conditions [ID 3591]. Additionally, it is an antioxidant [ID 3824].

In conclusion, Alg Pharma Hydrofem 30 tablets is a dietary supplement that, thanks to its content of natural extracts from medicinal plants and herbs, contributes to body cleansing through its diuretic action and supports weight control.
