Calendula Extract - Golden Flower Care for a Sensitive Belly
Beschreibung
An alcohol-free flower extract, rooted in calendula’s longstanding tradition of soothing care.
With its bright orange-gold flowers, calendula (Calendula officinalis) has been a familiar presence in European gardens and herbal preparations for generations. Behind that sunny appearance lies a distinctive combination of flavonoids, triterpenoid compounds and other botanical constituents.
Soria Natural brings the flower into a concentrated liquid preparation, combining freeze-dried calendula extract with water, vegetable glycerine and cyclodextrins.
Within Happy Belly, its particular focus is the traditional use of calendula for digestive comfort and sensitive internal tissues.
Why Calendula Belongs in Happy Belly
Herbal care for digestion includes attention to the mucosa, the delicate lining of the digestive tract. Calendula has a history of internal use in European phytotherapy for stomach complaints, alongside its better-known external applications.
This gives it a distinct character within Happy Belly: a single-flower preparation with a tradition of soothing care, suited to a description focused on sensitivity and comfort. Its digestive and menstrual uses both appear in historical herbal accounts.
The Chemistry Behind the Flower
Calendula’s flowers contain several complementary groups of constituents:
- Flavonoids: including derivatives of quercetin and isorhamnetin, part of the flower’s polyphenol profile.
- Triterpenoid compounds: including saponins and triterpene esters, investigated for their biological activity.
- Carotenoids: pigments contributing to the flower’s yellow-orange colour.
Together, these help explain the continuing pharmacognostic interest in calendula, how the plant’s identity, constituent profile and preparation shape its herbal character. Soria Natural declares 6 mg of flavonoids per 3 ml daily serving.
A Connection to the Menstrual Cycle
Calendula also has a place in traditional European herbal practice surrounding menstrual discomfort and irregular or absent periods.
This is a secondary part of its heritage, while digestive comfort remains the focus here. The traditional association is best described as menstrual use, rather than a demonstrated ability to regulate hormones.
Thoughtfully Prepared
The formula uses freeze-dried calendula flower extract in an alcohol-free glycerine-and-water base.
Alpha- and gamma-cyclodextrins are ring-shaped carbohydrates that can associate with suitable plant compounds, helping their stability and dispersibility. They form part of Soria Natural’s approach to protecting botanical constituents within its liquid extracts.
The result is a convenient preparation with a clearly declared quantity of flower extract and flavonoids.
