Never before has the average human body needed assistance in fending off the increasing number of toxins it faces daily. When patients need gentle drainage before detoxification, traditional herbal medicine and homeopathy may not be enough. The addition of embryonic phytotherapy to a healing protocol may be necessary to help gently drain toxins and effectively restore cellular health and hormonal balance.
Phytotherapy is the use of plants, either whole or in the form of standardized extracts, for healing purposes. Many plants synthesize phytochemicals with recognized health benefits—such as alkaloids, terpenoids and polyphenols—which can be harnessed and used help speed the body’s natural healing processes.
Phytoembryotherapy is a branch of phytotherapy that specifically incorporates plant embryological tissues (buds and young shoots) containing “plant meristem” cells, which are the undifferentiated, fast-dividing cells that contain the plant’s genetic blueprint and material—essentially the plant’s stem cells (no pun intended).
These embryonic tissues are rich in beneficial phytochemicals, including growth factors and plant hormones, enzymes, nucleic acids, oligo elements, and phytonutrients such as polyphenols and flavonoids. It’s important that the embryonic plant is utilized, because many of these beneficial compounds disappear once chlorophyll is formed and the plant is fully developed. Embryological tissues are also important because their energetic components are at their highest levels when they are harvested in the spring, because this is the most active phase of the growth cycle.
The Phyto-Gen line from Genestra is our overwhelming preference for phytotherapy products, because it utilizes high-quality, organic buds and young shoots that are hand macerated in equal parts water, alcohol and glycerin (which each extract different, specific biochemical components) to produce a highly standardized extract that is cost-effective and easy for patients to use. This gentle, eco-certified process preserves plant integrity and captures the highest energetic levels during the most active growth cycle of each plant for the highest level of purity, strength and effectiveness available.
The Phyto-Gen line is comprised of two different types of products:
- Singles: These single plant extracts are formulated to build health physically and constitutionally. They can also be used in conjunction with condition-specific remedies to enhance the properties of both.
- Symbiotic Combinations: These synergistic combos are made by the maceration of three different phytonutrients together—not combined after individual maceration—to create an effect that is greater than the sum of the individual components.
