What is Adolf Just's Luvos Heilerde microfine?
Luvos Heilerde is an earthy, yellowish powder, extracted from natural loess. This was created during the last ice age and is extracted in Germany in our own mining operation. Luvos Heilerde contains no chemical additives such as colourings, fragrances or preservatives and is vegan. The loess is composed of minerals: predominantly silicates, feldspar, three-layer clay minerals, calcite, dolomite, goethite. Luvos Heilerde microfine has special binding properties and a catalytic effect. The loess is gently dried at 130°C using state-of-the-art technology to kill germs. It is then ground and sieved to obtain the application-specific finenesses for the desired therapeutic effect. Luvos Heilerde microfine is available as a powder, capsules and granules for oral use.
