Oxymel - an ancient recipe

Traditions about oxymel and its use can be found in ancient medical and healing texts, such as those of Galen of Pergamon (129-199) or in the Middle Ages by Hildegard of Bingen.

Honey and vinegar - each a powerful home remedy with countless beneficial properties - are mixed together, and as a bonus, you can also add (medicinal) herbs to this potent mixture.

For a long, long time, so-called sour honey had a firm place as a medicinal form among healers and doctors.

In fact, the trunk can be used in many ways:
Take 1-2 tablespoons neat half an hour before your first meal, diluted 1:10 with warm or cold water, or—for even more refreshment—with cold mineral water. Its use in the kitchen also invites creative experimentation.

Honey contains over 180 different components. In addition to various types of sugar, it contains vitamins, minerals, flavonoids, and polyphenols (which act as antioxidants), as well as bee enzymes. The latter are responsible, among other things, for honey's anti-inflammatory effects.

The power of bees, microorganisms and plants

Vinegar is a fermentation product in which the alcohol in a fruit wine is converted into acid with the help of microorganisms. For its dietary benefits, vinegar was already highly praised by Hippocrates (the founder of modern medicine). 

Both vinegar and honey have strong extraction power. When herbs or spices are added, the valuable essential oils and secondary plant compounds are gently dissolved and perfectly preserved in the honey-vinegar mixture. 

For our oxymels, in addition to our organic honey, we only use products of controlled organic quality from Austrian manufacturers, such as Sonnentor and Gölles , for the other ingredients.

An exotic delicacy: fully ripe, dried, organic mango pieces in raw food quality. Our mangoes grow to full ripeness in a tropical Asian climate; drying at temperatures below 42 degrees Celsius preserves their unique flavor nuances. They are carefully produced entirely by hand without any additives. Our mangoes contain no unpleasant fibers and have a wonderfully exotic fruit flavor. They are rather firm and, thanks to their aromatic quality, are ideal for smoothies and raw food dishes. They are soaked beforehand to facilitate blending. ingvi mango pieces from Sri Lanka have a higher acidity than African mangoes and are somewhat drier. African mangoes, on the other hand, are somewhat sweeter and softer to the bite and are more popular as a snack. Mangoes lose their acidity when exposed to too much heat, which is desirable—for a rounded, fruity flavor. Therefore, African mangoes are on the sweeter side, while those from Sri Lanka are more balanced, as more fruit is noticeable. Ripe, fresh mangoes should be stored in the refrigerator at home, otherwise the sweetness will overpower and the flavor will be lost. Gluten-free, lactose-free, soy-free, and peanut-free, and vegan.

Dried, pitted sour cherries, raw food quality, organic. Our ripe sour cherries are carefully harvested in Uzbekistan and dried at temperatures below 42 degrees Celsius without additives, sulfur, or preservatives. Sour cherries contain a wealth of important ingredients that enrich our diet and support our health. In addition to their vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, the secondary plant substances in sour cherries – plant phenols – are particularly important. The most important trace elements in dried sour cherries are iron, boron, copper, manganese, and zinc. Vitamins include vitamins A, B1, B2, C, and E. Dried sour cherries also contain the sleep hormone melatonin, making them one of the few natural sources of this substance. The flavor of sour cherries is deliciously fruity, with an intense and delicately sour note. Gluten- and lactose-free, vegan.

ingvi raw walnut butter is made from fresh, activated walnuts of the highest quality and milled at temperatures below 42°C. This prevents the enzymes, vitamins, and proteins from being destroyed. Walnuts primarily contain vitamins B and E, omega-3 fatty acids, and alpha-linolenic acid (anti-inflammatory properties, positive effect on blood pressure). ingvi walnut butter tastes delicious as a "stuffing" for dates or figs, in desserts and cakes, or simply on its own as a quick energy boost. The butter gets its mild flavor from the activation of the walnuts. The raw walnuts are soaked in salt water for a few hours (this preserves all the important minerals in the nut!) and then gently dried again at temperatures below 42°C. During the soaking process, the so-called "phytic acid" in the skin, which can lead to intolerances in large quantities, is broken down, while simultaneously significantly increasing the amount of minerals and vitamins. Since each harvest is slightly different, these nut butters, ground in small batches, always vary slightly in consistency and flavor. Authentic, just as nature creates them.

Vitamin E 50 capsules. Recommended intake: 1-2 capsules daily with meals.

Vitamin C, 50 capsules - good antioxidant - for the immune system - for collagen synthesis - for the elderly and smokers. The human body cannot produce vitamin C itself. This multi-complex of magnesium, potassium, and calcium ascorbate is supplemented by foods rich in vitamin C. Magnifood and ingredients: Rose hips are one of the best natural sources of vitamin C, as their vitamin C concentration is 100 times higher than in oranges. Acerola cherries, acai berries, and the fruits and leaves of sea buckthorn contain high levels of vitamin C, as well as water-soluble antioxidants that protect vitamin C from oxidation. Acai berries also contain vitamin E, which recycles oxidized vitamin C in the body. Recommended intake: 1-2 capsules daily with meals.

A care complex containing 50 capsules for skin, hair, and nails. Since time immemorial, people have sought the source of eternal youth and beauty. The Terranova care complex, made from plant-based ingredients and nutrients, contains all the essential nutrients and compounds that contribute to the regeneration and maintenance of skin, hair, and nail cells, promoting a youthful appearance. MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), or the active form of sulfur, is the basic element of all connective tissues (skin, nails, and ligaments) and contributes to their regeneration. Magnifood and ingredients: The young shoots of the horsetail plant contain nutrients that positively influence the health and appearance of the skin: silicon, sulfur, and vitamin C. The berries and leaves of the sea buckthorn plant provide a high level of omega-7 fatty acids, which are essential for maintaining healthy skin. They also contain antioxidants, flavonoids, carotenoids, and vitamins C and E, which protect the skin from environmental influences. Blueberries provide vitamin C and antioxidants that stimulate the formation of mucopolysaccharides. These are part of the structural components of skin tissue and, with their antioxidant properties, prevent the damaging effects of free radicals. Raw cocoa seeds contain flavones, which effectively bind free radicals and stimulate blood circulation in the skin tissue. Burdock root has been used by our grandmothers for the treatment of minor wounds, inflammations, and skin ulcers. Recommended intake: 1-2 capsules daily before meals.
