Gemmotherapy brings together several dozen bud macerates. They will each act in depth, on the ground, by draining, rebalancing and regenerating certain disrupted physiological processes. Thus, bud macerates are particularly effective in cases of chronic conditions and their use is rather long-term in three-week courses. We then find diverse and varied indications, which can be grouped by system of action. Although each bud macerate can act on different systems at the same time, certain systems stand out more particularly.

Bud macerates of the immune & inflammatory system

The immune system is what allows us to defend ourselves from external attacks. It involves many organs such as the thymus, bone marrow, spleen, tonsils, lymph nodes, etc. Inflammation corresponds to the response of the immune system to an external attack. Fortunately, bud macerates support our immune response.

Hawthorn bud macerate

 The plant

Hawthorn is a very amazing plant. This tree with hard, heavy wood that can live up to 200 years appears graceful at first sight but be careful... Whoever rubs against it gets pricked! In fact, the stems are topped with short, sharp thorns. This also gave it its Latin name, oxycantha of which oxus means sharp, and akantha thorn in Greek. In spring, pretty white or pink flowers appear, arranged in bouquets with a rather...strong scent. While it may seem unpleasant to some people, to others it will be more similar to the smell of rotten fish. Fortunately, we do not find this smell on the bud, the part used to make concentrated macerates. Hawthorn is truly the plant of the heart, and we find this property in the macerate of buds. It brings together the action on the heart rate and tension of the flower, and the action on the heart muscle of the fruit. In short, Hawthorn bud maceration is best for those with fragile hearts (and not artichoke hearts).
