Intestine & Digestion – Nutrients, Cultures & Plant Extracts

In this category, we bring together nutrients, bacterial cultures and plant extracts that are traditionally associated with the topic of intestine & digestion. Here you'll find various groups of compounds from Scheunengut – from bacterial cultures through enzymes to classic bitter compounds such as artichoke and dandelion root. All products are vegan, bottled in Germany and lab-tested.

Origin & Extraction

The raw materials come from different sources: bacterial cultures are propagated through fermentation and prepared as defined strains, enzymes are often obtained from plant-based starting materials. Botanical extracts such as artichoke or milk thistle are extracted from the leaves, herb or seeds of the respective plant.

Standardisation & Format

The ingredients are offered predominantly as capsules or powder. For cultures, the number of bacterial strains and the colony-forming units (CFU/g) are decisive – here you'll find, for example, a complex with 23 strains and 100 billion CFU/g. Plant extracts are standardised to their marker substance, for example silymarin in milk thistle or curcumin in turmeric. Several ingredients are often combined in one complex.

What to Look for When Buying

  • Transparently declared content or standardised marker substance
  • For cultures: number of strains and CFU value
  • Origin of the raw materials and purity, vegan where possible
  • Independently lab-tested quality
