Fermented ground anchor sports performance, vitality, body health - 60 caps

Why buy

Tribulus has been traditionally used in Greece, China and India, especially for fertility, libido and mood support. In the 1970s and 1980s, it gained popularity as an ergogenic (anabolic) agent and later became a popular supplement for male health and athletic performance in Western countries. In addition to supporting libido, Tribulus is valued as an adaptogen, especially in active men.

Fermented Tribulus ter restris offers many advantages over dried versions. Thanks to the triple fermentation process*, key substances such as saponins become much more easily absorbed by the body. In addition, fermentation increases the herb's effectiveness by breaking down complex compounds into simpler ones that are more easily used by the body.

Living Nutrition uses a special fermentation process using kefir and kombucha, which not only preserves all the natural components of the anemone, but also adds new bioactive substances. This process helps to increase overall effectiveness and makes anemone a great choice for those looking for a natural boost of vitality and energy. Anchovy is traditionally known for its stimulating effects, especially when it comes to physical performance and stamina.

The combination of fermentation and the traditional power of anchovy creates a product that is better absorbed and used naturally by the body. Fermented anchovy is ideal for those looking for something extra over conventional dietary supplements, as fermentation ensures maximum effect.

Organic fermented anchovy is rich in valuable micronutrients, enzymes and compounds that contribute to physical health and performance.

*The ancient triple fermentation method used by Living Nutrition is a special process that combines three fermentation steps involving kefir and kombucha cultures.

This process is inspired by ancient techniques and aims to transform herbs and foods into their most bioactive forms.

Fermentation not only improves nutrient absorption, but also increases enzyme, antioxidant and probiotic content, which supports gut health and the immune system.

Triple fermentation includes:

1. Fermentation with kefir cultures - which breaks down complex compounds to improve absorption.

2. Fermentation with kombucha - which adds probiotic yeast and bacteria.

3. The final stage of fermentation - aimed at preserving the maximum content of beneficial microorganisms and bioactive substances.

This method is part of the Living Nutrition philosophy, which emphasizes natural processes and preserving the integrity of herbs. This method of fermentation produces nutritious and easily absorbed products.

Anchorman in Ayurveda

Tribulus terrestris has a strong place in Ayurvedic medicine due to its adaptogenic properties and its ability to promote vitality.

In Ayurveda, anemone is considered to be an herb that balances mainly vata and kapha dosha. Its light and dry nature allows it to harmonize the energy in the body, contributing to overall balance and improved vitality.

Due to its regenerative properties, anemone is traditionally used to promote male health and vitality, although in Ayurveda it is considered a herb suitable for both sexes. It acts as a tonic that aids physical performance and endurance, and is valued for its ability to restore strength and energy.

Anemone is often combined with other herbs in Ayurveda to enhance its effects on the body, whether in supporting hormonal balance or in increasing the body's resistance to stress. Ayurvedic healers use it to boost energy, regenerate and harmonize all systems in the body.

In traditional blends, anemone is considered an important tool for promoting physical and mental health, and due to its versatile properties, it finds use in many Ayurvedic formulas for body and mind health.

Studies:

Tribulus terrestris has been studied for its effects on athletic performance, libido, and anti-inflammatory properties. Studies have shown that it can relieve muscle fatigue and improve anaerobic performance. Some research has noted an increase in testosterone levels and muscle strength.

In terms of libido, in this study, anemone was effective in increasing sexual desire in people with low libido.

In terms of anti-inflammatory effects, according to this study, Tribulus increases antioxidant activity and may suppress the production of inflammatory cytokines, which may help with chronic inflammatory diseases.

To whom the Ayurveda anchor recommends:

By virtue of its traditional Ayurvedic properties, ground anemone may be suitable for the following groups of people:

• Men and women seeking a boost in vitality: anemone has traditionally been used as a tonic to support hormonal balance and reproductive health.

• Athletes and physically active people: thanks to its stimulating effects, anchovy can be beneficial for those who want to improve physical stamina and performance.

• People suffering from stress and exhaustion: anemone is valued in Ayurveda for its regenerative properties that help the body resist stress.

• People with imbalance in kapha and vata dosha: According to Ayurveda, anemone harmonizes the energy in the body, promoting balance and regeneration.

If you have health problems or are taking other medications, you should consult an Ayurvedic therapist when taking adaptogens.

Anchor and other adaptogens

In Ayurveda, Tribulus terrestris is often combined with herbs such as ashwaganda a shatavari. These combinations are popular for promoting hormonal balance, boosting vitality and managing stress.

According to Ayurveda, ashvaganda helps the body respond better to stress factors and shatavari traditionally supports the balance of the reproductive system. In practice, these herbs have a synergistic effect on the overall resistance of the body, boosting energy and supporting the overall regeneration of the body, whether male or female.

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) and tulsi (holy basil) are often combined with anemone in Ayurveda for their synergistic effects on the mind and body. Brahmi is known for promoting mental clarity and memory, while tulsi helps the body manage stress and promotes overall vitality.

The combination of these herbs with anemone in Ayurvedic recipes not only helps to strengthen physical endurance, but also to harmonize the nervous system and promote mental balance, which is ideal for stressful and challenging times.

In Ayurvedic practices, they are often given mixed with milk, which increases their absorption and effectiveness.

Adaptogens similar to Tribulus terrestris in their function, particularly in promoting vitality, energy and physical performance, include:

• Ashwagandha: Known in Ayurveda as an herb that balances stress and promotes endurance and strength. When combined with anchor cordial, it can enhance its effects on physical and mental stamina.
• St. John's Wort: Known in Ayurveda as an herb that helps the body manage physical and mental stress, promotes concentration and vitality. Its combination with anchovy may offer a synergistic effect that contributes to better stress management and increased performance.
• Maca: Known in Ayurveda as an herb that supports hormonal balance and physical stamina. Combining it with anchovy can offer an increase in physical and mental strength.
• Ginseng: Known in Ayurveda as an herb that is valued for its overall support of vitality and balance of the body's energy. This root can synergistically complement the effects of Tribulus by supporting cognitive function and overall mental resilience

We remind you that anemone is traditionally used in Ayurveda to promote vitality and harmonize reproductive energy.

In conclusion, Living Nutrition has developed Nitrox, an herbal blend of anchovy along with cordyceps and beetroot, designed to support physical energy, stamina and oxygenation.

You can also find anchovy in the Cycle Care product from Bioptimizers.

Why ferment the anchorage

Fermenting this herb can increase its potency, further supporting traditional Ayurvedic uses. Fermentation improves bioavailability and digestion, allowing the body to use nutrients more easily.

This process can also enhance the adaptogenic and regenerative properties that are valued in Ayurveda, thereby promoting overall health and harmony.

The most common compounds in Tribulus include saponins and flavonoids, which are probably the main substances responsible for its potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-ageing effects.

The steroidal saponin protodioscin plays a role in the nitric oxide system and can increase its production, which is important for dilating blood vessels and improving blood flow to muscles. This saponin is considered a key element contributing to the performance benefits of Tribulus.

Differences between fermented and dried herb:

Fermented herbs offer several advantages over standard ground herbs, especially when used as dietary supplements. Here are the main reasons why it makes sense to consider fermented supplements:

• Increased bioavailability: fermentation breaks down complex compounds, which facilitates the absorption of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and bioactive substances. For example, fermented turmeric has a higher bioavailability of curcuminoids, making it more effective in the body compared to raw turmeric. The process converts compounds into a form that is more easily digested and absorbed by the body.

• Creation of new nutrients: fermentation can actually create new beneficial compounds that were not previously present. For example, fermentation of plants such as fenugreek can generate additional vitamins, such as B12, which is not naturally found in raw fenugreek. This transformation can increase the overall nutritional profile of the supplement.

• Improved digestibility: the fermentation process breaks down fibres and other solid plant materials, making them easier to digest. This is especially important for herbs and mushrooms, which are naturally difficult to digest. Fermentation also reduces antinutrients such as phytic acid, which can inhibit the absorption of important minerals.

• Supporting gut health: fermented supplements often contain beneficial bacteria or compounds that support gut health. Although probiotics are not present in large quantities, fermentation by-products (such as lactic acid) help to improve digestion and promote healthy gut flora.

• Synergistic effects: fermentation can increase the synergistic action of the plant's compounds. In turmeric, for example, fermentation increases the interaction between curcuminoids and other active substances, providing more complex anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

In summary, fermented herbal supplements offer better absorption, new beneficial compounds, and easier digestion, making them a more potent and bioavailable choice over non-fermented versions.

Anemone plays an important role in traditional Ayurvedic health care, and fermentation can enhance these benefits.

If you're looking for a product with higher bioavailability and added value in the form of probiotics, fermented ground anchovy may be a better choice.

Who is behind the production?

The nutritional supplement is formulated by renowned English nutritional therapist, Graham Botfield, to achieve the right synergy of nutrients in which each food and herb perfectly complement each other.

Only the best organic ingredients are used for freshness and vitality. The fermentation production process (details under the tab titled Fermentation Process) is also designed and controlled by Graham.

The production of each mixture in this product line is supervised individually, as each mixture has different composition, requirements and purpose. All fermented blends are gently freeze-dried to preserve their freshness and capture the highest possible amount of active nutrients.

Founder Graham Botfield is a nutritional therapist and researcher who specialises in the digestive microbiome and the traditional use of herbs.

He has worked with respected dietary supplement brands, including New Chapter, whose founder and master herbalist Paul Schulick was a major influence on Graham's approach to developing nature-inspired supplements.

Together with another colleague, an expert in microbiology, Graham is constantly developing new fermented products and researching their benefits.

Graham's great passion, besides fermentation, is education. He uses his research at Living Nutrition to lecture on the benefits of fermented plants for modern health conditions.

At Living Nutrition, we continue to be inspired by Graham's research to create products that work in harmony with the body's natural ecology.

What are adaptogens

Adaptogens are used in situations where, for example, stress, anxiety or physical strain is induced. At that moment, the organism fully adapts (the formation of non-specific resistance), which allows it to physiologically cope with mentally and physically stressful situations, stress, anxiety, increased physical stress, etc.

In Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), adaptogens are used for various purposes. Calming adaptogens, such as ashwaganda and holy basil (tulsi), are considered in Ayurveda to promote inner peace and regeneration. Reishireishi, a mushroom often used in TCM, is valued for its benefits in the overall harmonization of the body.

Stimulant adaptogens such as rose stonecrop a maca, have their roots in traditional healing systems and are considered to be plants that provide the body with energy and resilience.

In TCM it is also often used ginsengwhich is traditionally associated with promoting vitality and physical strength. These substances have the ability to adapt to the body's needs and thus help maintain its balance.

WARNING: according to American dietitian Holly Herington, adaptogens don't work like a cup of coffee, you won't feel their effect immediately. It takes between 6 to 12 weeks for the adaptogens to build up in the body and you will notice a difference.

A few years ago, I arranged for Graham to appear on the sugarfee podcast to talk about adaptogens. I have also translated the entire interview into Czech for you with subtitles.
