Vitakruid Vitex agnus castus 200mg monk's pepperVitex Agnus Castus, also known as monk's pepper or chastetree, is a plant native to the Mediterranean region, Central Asia, and North America. The diverse scientific research on the herb has led us to attribute various properties to monk's pepper.
High efficacy due to standardization of 0.5% agnuside and 0.6% aucubine
The main active substances of Vitex Agnus Castus are the so-called agnuside and aucubine. Due to the unique standardization of no less than 0.5 percent agnuside and 0.6 percent aucubine, a guaranteed amount of these active substances is present in the herb.
The other active substance – aucubine – is an active compound with biological applications. This active compound spreads in multiple organs and is primarily effective in women. Therefore, it is not surprising that we attribute the applications of monk's pepper mainly to women.
No less than 200 mg Vitex Agnus Castus per capsule
Most monk's pepper supplements contain only 100 mg per capsule. Vitex Agnus Castus extract from Vitakruid contains no less than 200 mg per capsule and is standardized to 0.5 percent agnuside and 0.6 percent aucubine. This high standardization makes it a unique supplement.
Therapeutic effect after three months
The recommendation is to take one to two Vitex Agnus Castus capsules with meals each day. However, some patience with the monk's pepper is necessary. Recent research shows that the therapeutic effect of the herb can be expected after three months of supplementation.
