ETHICAL FOOD SUPPLEMENT< /p>
What does it even mean - an ethical dietary supplement? It means that Viridian brand supplements are made exclusively from quality ingredients and you will find absolutely no ballast additives in them. It also comes from organic farming and is not tested on animals. Also important is that the Viridian brand is family owned and not part of any pharmaceutical or other corporation. Viridian is based on an ethical approach to customers and business partners, and always strives for the ecological integrity of its products.
All ingredients are 100% bioactive
This may sound obvious. But the truth is that many commercially available products contain largely synthetic ingredients, in addition to a high proportion of ballast additives, stabilizers, binders and artificial sweeteners.
Support of local growers
One of Viridian's key principles is the support of local farmers and local producers of raw materials (not multinational corporations), with whom it has very fair and fair relations. Viridian thus guarantees the quality of its supplements, because it has an overview of the entire production process - literally from the seed to the final product, and at the same time fulfills its philosophy of ethical vitamins
Natural and functional form of vitamins usable for the body
Do they have some form of vitamins and minerals? And why shouldn't they all be equally usable for the body? It is so. We can show this on iron, one of the most necessary minerals. In ordinary supplements, it occurs, for example, in the form of an oxide. This form is of little use to the body and the reason why it is used in common supplements is again the low price. For example, in its Liquid Iron supplement, Viridian uses a direct extract from the leaves of the Murraya koenigii plant, which provides iron in a 100% natural form.
No GMO ingredientsGenetically modified crops are unnatural. They arise primarily with the aim of increasing yield and are a product of the agrochemical industry. You will never find any GMO ingredients in Viridian products.
No irradiated components
Irradiation of food takes place with ionizing radiation (alpha, beta, gamma, X-rays,...) - that is, with radioactive radiation in order to deactivation of contained enzymes and live biocultures, which extends shelf life.
No animal ingredients
Animal ingredients may not always be harmful, but Viridian tries to make as many of its products suitable for vegans as possible.
No artificial sweeteners
Artificial sweeteners are supposed to be a better alternative to sugar, in fact they are artificial (synthetic) molecular combinations that are unnatural for our bodies and the environment . Why consume something that does not belong in our body and environment?
No artificial colors and preservatives
No artificial colors, no preservatives. You won't find these or any other artificial additives in Viridian products.
Magnesium stearate, titanium dioxide and shellac free
Titanium oxide, or titanium white, is used as a coloring agent. It is found in many pharmaceutical products, common dietary supplements, processed foods, on tennis courts where the white lines form around the court, and also on the Saturn V rocket where it was used as an exterior coating. Magnesium stearate is used as a lubricant - it prevents capsules from seizing on the production line. In combination with water and soap, it forms an insoluble substance that forms, for example, the typical non-removable rings on bathtubs. Shellac is a resin secreted by the female lacquer worm, an insect native to India. Sheets of this resin are dissolved in ethyl alcohol to form a liquid shellac that is used as varnish and glaze. These substances are commonly used in dietary supplements, medicines and foods. You won't find them in Viridian supplements.
Ecological bottles
Viridian uses glass bottles made of so-called amber glass, which protect the contents from light and heat. At the same time, they can be recycled or reused. They can also be returned at our stores in exchange for a discount on your next purchase. The cap on the bottles is made of recyclable aluminum and the seal on the cap is made of cornstarch - Viridian does not use any plastics.
No palm oil
Viridian is the first brand in the world to be certified by the POFCAP program - The Palm Oil Free Accreditation Program. This guarantees that the brand does not use palm oil in its products or during production.
