Nutraceuticals for body care can be excellent natural companions. We tell you what they are and how you can use them depending on your main concern.


What are nutraceuticals?

Nutraceuticals are food supplements, which come in the form of tablets, capsules, liquids, gums or powders, containing nutrients such as vitamins, amino acids, minerals, plant extracts and others.

Despite the fact that they are not a substitute for a healthy diet or physical exercise, by including these food supplements in our diet we can help to enhance our beauty and healthy well-being.

Certain substances are not recommended for sensitive groups, for example pregnant or breastfeeding women, children, or for persons undergoing medical treatment. Nevertheless, you should follow the recommendations given by the manufacturers on the containers and packaging and seek medical advice in case of doubt.

Where did nutraceuticals come from? 

It was Dr. Stephen DeFelice who, in 1989, coined the term "nutraceutical", merging "nutrition" and "pharmaceutical". He described nutraceuticals as "foods with a health benefit, including the prevention and/or treatment of disease".

From that moment on, these foods became increasingly popular because of their verifiable positive effects on our health and well-being.

Key benefits of nutraceuticals for the body  

nutraceuticals or nutricosmetics can deliver a variety of health benefits, which depend on their nutrients and forms of presentation. Some of the most important benefits of nutraceuticals include the following:

  • Boosting metabolism
  • Enhancing cleansing effects
  • Enhancing draining effects
  • Acting as a prebiotic
  • Fostering a satiating effect
  • Enhancing digestion
  • Acting as a thermogenic (increasing body temperature)
  • Etc.

Core components of nutraceuticals for the body  

These food supplements are notable for including nutrients such as:  

  • L-carnitine: promotes the burning of fat as a source of energy and stimulates its metabolism.
  • Choline: mobilises liver fats and reduces hepatic overload (liver protection).
  • Bitter orange extract: boosts energy expenditure and improves physical performance.
  • Extract of Centella asiatica: stimulates circulation and microcirculation.
  • Birch extract, Cherry stem and Orthosiphon extract: increase the volume of urine and stimulate the elimination of electrolytes and toxins.
  • Pineapple concentrate, and Artichoke extract: detoxifying, anti-inflammatory, fat-mobilising and dissolving action.
  • Dandelion extract: promotes the selective growth of healthy bacteria in the gut and has draining properties.
