Pumpkin seed – Pumpkin seeds are a good source of zinc and also contain copper, which is an important structural element of the body’s own antioxidant system. The balance of copper and zinc is important for the wellbeing of the body.

Shiitake – The possible therapeutic effect of shiitake mushroom has been linked to lentinan, which belongs to the group of polysaccharides found therein. Shiitake is also one of the best sources of L-ergothioneine. The possible effect of eritadenine contained in the mushroom has also been studied, as it has a positive effect on cardiovascular health.

Parsley – Parsley is a very good source of B vitamins. It also contains plenty of coenzymes that are necessary for B vitamin metabolism, such as potassium, magnesium, vitamin C and iron. These coenzymes are needed together with vitamin B12 for haemoglobin formation and as coenzymes in the nervous system and energy metabolism. Parsley has been traditionally used for cleansing and strengthening the kidneys and urinary tract. It is also rich in chlorophyll, which supports the health of the digestive tract and its bacterial strains.

Kale – Kale is a good source of carotenoids and important sulphur-containing antioxidants (sulforaphane and indole-3-carbinol). Studies show that these compounds help remove toxins from the organs that are known to be harmful to the liver.

When creating Terranova products, the plants used as ingredients are freeze-dried, which helps preserve their original biochemical composition. Freeze-drying the plants also increases the greater bioavailability of the nutrients.
