The Width · From Nature to Feed

Herbal Complex — more than just
herbs.

More than 20 carefully selected herbs from around the world, combined according to the principles of traditional medicine and modern synergy research. Not merely as an addition, but as a carefully considered active ingredient.

Not just “feed with herbs.” A scientifically formulated organic complex.

Making Full Use of the Plant — Nature as Composer.

Why This Complex?

Four principles set the
apart.

These four points are precisely why our organic complex is not “just another herbal blend.”

Principle 01

Over 20 herbs

We draw on the full range of traditional medicine—each herb plays a specific role in the overall formula.

Principle 02

The entire plant

We do not use isolated extracts. This ensures that the main active ingredient and its accompanying compounds remain together—just as nature intended.

Principle 03

Targeted Use of Synergies

We know which herbs enhance each other's effects and which ones counteract each other—and we formulate the blend accordingly.

Principle 04

Documented Recipe

It's not just what's in it that matters, but the proportions. Our formula is precise and reproducible.

What's Really Inside a Plant

Eight families of active ingredients in
each herb.

Over millions of years of evolution, every plant has developed a sophisticated blend. This diversity is no accident—it is the result of a natural composition.

  • Flavonoids Antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory — they protect cells.
  • Polyphenols & Tannins Antioxidant and antimicrobial; effective against diarrhea and parasites.
  • Bitter compounds Stimulate appetite and digestion—important for nutrient absorption.
  • Glycosides Enhance the effect of the plant's primary active ingredients.
  • Essential Oils Antibacterial and aids digestion.
  • Alkaloids Antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory.
  • Saponins Protect the intestinal mucosa and have antiviral effects.
  • Vitamins, Minerals, and Trace Elements The foundation—they support the effects of all other groups.

Drive past a group—it isn't sitting there in isolation, but as part of the entire complex.

If you reduce a plant to a single active ingredient —such as just curcumin from turmeric— you lose all the accompanying compounds that make the effect complete: less potency, poorer tolerability, and limited benefits. That’s why we use the whole plant instead of breaking it down.

Synergy Instead of an Add-On

Why you shouldn't just
throw herbstogether.

When two herbs come together, there are three possible outcomes. Only one of them is the one you want.

✓ Synergy1 + 1 = 3

The herbs enhance each other's effects. The result is greater than the sum of its parts.

= Additive1 + 1 = 2

The herbs work alongside each other without affecting one another. Nothing gained, nothing lost.

✗ Antagonism1 + 1 = 0.5

The herbs interfere with each other. The result is weaker than a single herb on its own.

Even two “good” herbs can interfere with each other. That’s exactly why we create blends—we don’t just mix them.

The best example

20x

Higher bioavailability of curcumin

Turmeric Meets Black Pepper

Curcumin—the main active ingredient in turmeric—is difficult for the body to absorb on its own. When turmeric is combined with the right dose of black pepper (piperine), the bioavailability of curcumin increases 20-fold.*

A mixture results in a product that is many times more effective—without the need to increase the dose. That is exactly what synergy is. That is exactly what Bio-Complex is.

How the Bio-Complex Is Created

Seven Steps, One "
" Minutes.

Every step is designed to preserve and specifically enhance the natural effects of the herbs.

  1. Selecting Herbs

    Healing TraditionProfile of Effects

    More than 20 herbs from European, Asian, and African medicinal traditions are selected based on their active profiles—not because they look good on a label, but because they serve a specific purpose within the formula.

  2. Quality Control

    PurityActive ingredient content

    Every batch is tested for purity, active ingredient content, and the absence of contaminants. The harvest time, climate, and soil quality determine the quality of a herb—we monitor each of these steps.

  3. Gentle drying

    Low TemperaturePreservation of active ingredients

    The herbs are dried at low temperatures to preserve vitamins, essential oils, and phytochemicals.

  4. Fine grinding

    Whole PlantBioavailability

    The entire plant—not just individual components—is ground into a fine, uniform powder so that all the active ingredients are readily available.

  5. Composition Based on a Formula

    Precise RecipeSynergy

    The herbs are combined in precisely defined percentage ratios. Even slight variations alter the effect of the entire complex—synergies are deliberately harnessed, and antagonisms are consciously avoided.

  6. Homogenization

    HomogeneityReproducibility

    Careful blending ensures that each serving contains the same ratio of all 20-plus herbs. This ensures that the effect remains consistent.

  7. Final Inspection & Bottling

    Quality AssuranceTraceability

    Each batch is inspected again before bottling. Only then is the Bio-Complex placed in its final packaging.

Mechanisms of Action

Six levels— at the same time.

The herbal complex does not act in a localized manner. These six areas of action show exactly how the plant compounds are absorbed by your dog's body.

Level of Action · Inflammation

Anti-inflammatory

Bioactive compounds such as sterols, saponins, and triterpenes inhibit pro-inflammatory signaling molecules and enzymes. They act on key signaling pathways—similar to conventional anti-inflammatory drugs, but without their side effects.

TNF-α · IL-1β · IL-6 · COX-2 · iNOS · NF-κB
Level of Action · Digestion

Gastrointestinal tract

Bitter compounds stimulate the production of saliva, gastric juice, and pancreatic juice and promote the secretion of digestive enzymes. In addition, they protect the stomach lining, regulate bowel function, and reduce the permeability of the intestinal wall.

Amylase · Lipase · Protease · For Leaky Gut
Level of Action · Immune System

Immune system

Stimulates macrophages and white blood cells, promotes interferon production and supports the gut-associated immune tissue. Herbs act here as gentle modulators—not as irritants.

Macrophages · Interferon · GALT
Level of Action · Cell Protection

Antioxidant

Polyphenols, flavonoids, and vitamin C neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and strengthen the body's own protective enzymes.

SOD · Catalase · Glutathione peroxidase
Level of Action · Liver & Kidney

Detox Organs

Protects the liver from toxins, promotes bile secretion, and thereby improves digestion and fat metabolism. It also supports kidney function, including protection against toxic stress.

Milk Thistle · Turmeric
Level of Action · Nervous System

Stress & Mood

Adaptogenic properties help regulate cortisol levels and the stress response. The B-complex vitamins and amino acids support serotonin production—promoting a balanced mood and better sleep.

HPA Axis · Cortisol · Serotonin
These six levels are interconnected. Better digestion improves nutrient absorption—which strengthens the immune system. Less oxidative stress reduces the burden on the liver. A balanced stress response calms the digestive system.
