Help from the plant kingdom
PADMA 28, with it many different active principles and protective substances, is effective in circulatory disorders resulting from arteriosclerosis. The natural variety of the active substances from plants that are contained in PADMA 28 can be classified into the following important function groups, whereby each group in turn consists of dozens of individual substances:
The tanning agents (tannins): these are antiinflammatory and antioxidative.
The vegetable dyes present in flowers, leaves and stalks (flavonoids): these support the immune functions and have antimicrobial, antinflammatory and antioxidative effects.
The essential oils (scents and aromas, terpenes): these support the digestive functions and have purifying, antimicrobial and antiinflammatory effects.
The correct combination of these plant-based protective substances also has the ability to stimulate the spontaneous healing process that is present in every organism. The whole range of the plant-based protective substances in PADMA 28 contains immune-regulating information which acts as a gentle, and at the same effective, support for the organism.
After exertion the body needs regeneration
There are various life situations that can threaten the body¹s balance: exertion peaks (such as in sport or overwork), stress situations and certain illnesses represent a special challenge for our body and can lead to increased wear. But if we then allow our body adequate periods of rest, it can build itself up again and the cells can regenerate.
An adequate intake of plant-based protective substances can ward off the negative effects of the process of decline and can shorten the regeneration time. Here, the most varied regulating impulses can be helpful for the body. The remedial herbal mixture, PADMA 28, can make a valuable contribution to this process.

When can I expect an improvement?
There is no general answer to this question. The onset of action depends on the state of health and the constitution of the individual.

After three months, at the latest, there should be a clearly noticeable improvement. The best results are achieved when PADMA 28 is taken regularly.

In the case of self-medication, the exact cause of the symptoms should be determined and your own diagnosis must be checked. Seek the advice of your physician, your pharmacist or your druggist, especially if you think that the effect of the medication is too weak or too strong, if you have any allergies or if you are taking other medicines (especially over-the-counter medicines).
If you are already receiving medical treatment, you should in any case inform the physician that you are taking this herbal remedy. Only in this way is it possible for him to adjust your treatment to the circumstances.
May PADMA 28 be given to children?
PADMA 28 can also be given to children. The dosage is determined primarily according to the age and body weight of the child. As a rule, 1-2 tablets once or twice a day, if possibles given before meals are sufficient. The tablets are easily crushed or broken down in a little liquid and can therefore be mixed with mashed bananas or quark, for example. The product must be kept out of the reach of children.
Where can PADMA 28 be obtained? What pack sizes are available?
PADMA 28 is obtainable from pharmacies and drugstores, without a medical prescription.
Supplied in boxes of 60 and 200 and 1000 tablets.
Why does PADMA 28 have such a characteristic taste and smell?
Tibetan remedies are made up according to the doctrine of the five elements. Each substance has certain tastes, depending on the dominance of certain elements. The medicine exerts certain effects on the human organism through the taste. The taste qualities play a central role in the make- up of medicines. PADMA 28 is therefore intentionally not adapted to our Western taste habits, especially our ideas of the taste of drugs.
How is PADMA 28 manufactured?
The manufacture of herbal products must be carried out carefully and gently, if the herbs are to be able to develop their full powers. This is done in specialised production plants, where the personnel are trained in the processing of herbs.
The controlled raw materials are carefully ground, mixed and pressed into tablets. In order to pack the tablets hygienically and at the same time to protect them against moisture, they are sealed in a plastic and aluminium foil. Despite intense efforts, we have not yet succeeded in finding a more environmentally friendly packaging system that meets our high safety and quality requirements.
Where do the plants that are processed come from?
Columbine and golden cinquefoil are grown in Switzerland, according to organic farming principles. The other herbs come from different parts of Europe, India and Central America, whereby great importance is attached to sustainability aspects.
How is it ensured that PADMA 28 contains the right plants in the right amounts and is not contaminated?
The variety of the different plants and minerals makes heavy demands on Quality Assurance in the course of manufacture. PADMA AG works according to internationally recognised guidelines, the observance of which is monitored by the drug regulatory authorities.
All the raw materials, the individual stages of production and the finished products are checked by modern analytical methods, in order to be able to guarantee a high-grade product. Checks are also carried out for any possible residues of pesticides, heavy metals, bacteria, fungi and aflatoxins.
Does the product contain any fillers or preservatives?
Only those inactive ingredients that are essential for the tabletting process are used. These are small amounts of sorbitol and silicon dioxide, both completely harmless, well known substances, which also occur naturally in the plant kingdom. The tablets contain no artificial preservatives, stabilisers or colouring agents.
What is the shelf life of PADMA 28?
PADMA 28 may be used only up to the date indicated by "EXP" on the container. Keep the product in the cardboard box (protection from light), in a dry place and at room temperature (about 15 - 25°C).
