Belinal®, silver fir branch extract

Amazing discovery of Slovenian scientists

High in the cold mountain forest, only the most durable plants survive extreme conditions. This is the home of the silver fir tree, which hides healthy ingredients developed over millions of years.

Silver fir branches have never been used before to create a botanical extract. It’s new to the world market. Silver fir branch extract has been approved in the EU and was published in the Novel Food Catalog in July 2017 by the EFSA. Belinal® has a self-affirmed GRAS, and the extract is recognized as safe by qualified experts based on publicly available scientific information.

Silver fir branches grown in the pristine European mountain forest are manually selected for the production of Belinal® extract. This way we ensure the highest quality of silver fir tissue with accurate knowledge of its origin. The wood and branches we use are sourced strictly from regular felling only. We take care of nature and sustainability.
