How does a dry extract in capsules differ from ordinary herbal powder or an infusion? — Dry Extract Ljambriin N126 for Immunity and Body Protection – Visterra

To make a dry extract, the active substances are extracted from the plant material and the solvent is then evaporated — the result is a concentrate, not just ground herb. This means that each capsule contains a more stable and predictable amount of plant components than a powder made from the whole raw material, where the concentration of substances can vary noticeably from batch to batch.

Compared with infusions or decoctions you prepare yourself, the capsule form needs no brewing or measuring and does not depend on steeping time or water temperature — factors that strongly affect the final composition of a homemade drink. This makes the format convenient for taking as a course on the road or at work.

It is important to understand that a dry extract is still a herbal product, not a pharmaceutical with a standardised dose of an active substance. That is why VISTERRA KUIV EKSTRAKT - LYAMBRIN N126 is positioned as a food supplement, not a medicine, and is not intended to treat or prevent diseases.
