Vaccinium vitis-idaea – Mother macerate of organic buds
The mother macerate of lingonberry buds comes from gemmotherapy, an approach to herbal medicine that uses the embryonic tissues of plants.
Gemmotherapy is a branch of herbal medicine which uses the embryonic tissues of plants: buds, young shoots and rootlets.
Developed in the 1950s by Dr Pol Henry, a Belgian doctor, this method is based on the use of fresh buds, harvested in spring at a key moment in their growth.
The buds are then macerated in a mixture of water, alcohol and vegetable glycerin, in order to obtain a mother macerate using a traditional process.
Lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea) is a small evergreen shrub belonging to the Ericaceae family.
It grows spontaneously in acidic soils, often at altitude or in lightly disturbed forest environments.
In gemmotherapy, the parts used are the buds and young shoots.
These plant tissues correspond to an early stage of development of the plant, when it mobilizes the elements necessary for its growth.
They are harvested fresh, then immediately macerated in order to preserve their natural characteristics.
The mother macerate is obtained by slow maceration in a mixture of water, alcohol and vegetable glycerin.
This traditional method is part of the historical principles of gemmotherapy.
