NETTLE ROOT EXTRACT (5:1) 500mg

Concentrated nettle root in a very practical format

Nettle extract (5:1) 500 mg from EssentialSeries is a dietary supplement made exclusively with Urtica dioica root. We’ve concentrated this part of the plant to offer you a convenient, easy-to-take option with a clearly defined composition.

Each plant capsule delivers 500 mg of 5:1 extract, an amount equivalent to 2500 mg of nettle root. That way you can add a concentrated amount of the plant to your daily routine without having to prepare infusions or use large amounts of root powder.

A plant for a complete wellness routine

The nettle supports the locomotor system, is positive for joint health and helps keep joints flexible, the muscles and the tendons. It also supports overall vitality and helps you feel more energized.

Additionally, it’s used to support the elimination functions of the body and for drainage of the body. It contributes to the functioning of the urinary tract, supports the renal elimination of water and supports the excretory function of the kidneys.

What makes our nettle extract different?

The plant part matters. Leaves, stems and roots don’t have the same composition. That’s why we make this product solely with nettle root Urtica dioica, not mixing it with leaves, stems or other aerial parts.

We’ve also cared for the formula that accompanies the extract. It contains no artificial colorants, preservatives or genetically modified ingredients. It’s a clean label option, allergen-free and presented in vegan plant capsules.

5:1 extract and standardization to 1% beta-sitosterol

The 5:1 concentration means we use five parts of root to obtain one part of extract. Therefore, the 500 mg present in each capsule equal 2500 mg of nettle root.

Additionally, the extract is standardized to 1% beta-sitosterol, a phytosterol naturally present in nettle root. This guarantees 5 mg of beta-sitosterol per capsule and makes the product composition clear.

Who is it for?

It’s a good choice for those seeking a concentrated plant extract, easy to take and made solely with nettle root. It can also fit into routines focused on joint well-being, vitality, body elimination functions or urinary tract care.

Its plant capsule, allergen-free formula and lack of artificial colorants, preservatives or GMOs make it especially practical for vegans or for those who prefer simple ingredient supplements.

How to integrate it into your routine

Its capsule format lets you take it easily and adapt it to your schedule. To turn it into a habit, we recommend taking it with the same meal every day, whether at breakfast, midday meal, or dinner, always following the recommended use.
