Flavonoids
Powerful antioxidants protecting cells from free radicals, reducing inflammation and helping to fight premature skin aging.
BIOMOLECULE
Nettle, Biomolecules of Interest
Nettle contains an unsuspected wealth of active biomolecules with medicinal and nutritional properties. This project aims to identify, extract and valorize these molecules to create health, beauty and wellness products.
Why Valorize Nettle Biomolecules?
Nettle is an ancestral medicinal plant whose active molecules can be used in various fields, including:
- Health: anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, diuretic…
- Cosmetics: anti-aging, moisturizing and soothing properties for skin and hair care
- Food Industry: rich in minerals (calcium, iron, magnesium), vitamins (A, C, K), and proteins, making it an interesting ingredient in nutritional products
Phenolic Acids
Natural antibacterial and antifungal agents, contributing to cell regeneration and infection treatment.
Vitamins & Minerals
Vitamins A, C, K and minerals (iron, calcium, magnesium) essential for good health.
Proteins & Amino Acids
Essential amino acids (lysine, leucine) promoting muscle growth and cell repair.
Chlorophyll
Antioxidant and purifying: promotes body detoxification and improves blood circulation.
Potential Applications
Health products, dietary supplements, cosmetic care and agriculture.
