The Principles of Global Oligotherapy

Trace elements are the catalysts of the body's biological functions. Without them, there is no function and no life.

Trace elements are naturally part of the body and are therefore not considered foreign bodies. On the contrary, they are integrated to act and remain in the organic site intended by nature.

Laboratoire BIOLIGO is a pioneer in Switzerland and worldwide in Global Oligotherapy, which consists of synergistically combining all the trace elements that are at the root of our biological functions or that treat a health problem holistically.

Laboratoire BIOLIGO, a family business founded in 1974, has improved and simplified classic oligotherapy by making it easier to prescribe and apply, but also by making it more effective, as its clinical and medical applications have proven over many years. Experience has shown that they restore our biological functions when they are blocked by the many hazards of our industrial civilization (stress, pollution, excesses, deficiencies, etc.). It was by observing the limitations of classic oligotherapy that the BIOLIGO SA laboratory created the first trace element complexes: the POE range (preparations in Trace Elements).

The advantages of global oligotherapy

When our body functions poorly or less well, it is bio-logical (logical with life) to use what naturally activates our metabolisms: trace elements.

Global oligotherapy ensures that all trace elements are supplied in appropriate proportions, treating a dysfunction as a whole or stimulating all the functions of a system.

Our body, which contains trace elements, recognizes them as friendly substances, assimilates and eliminates them with great ease, especially thanks to the highly assimilable liquid form of these complexes.

Global oligotherapy has significantly simplified treatment. More economical, it also reduces its cost. Its role and mode of action on our various metabolisms are the results of total synergy. No metabolism can be reduced to a single reaction independent of the rest of the organism. Functions as complex as digestion, immunity, nervous resistance, cannot be restored with the intake of a single element. This is why any prescription of trace elements can only be poly-oligotherapeutic.

The synergies of Global Oligotherapy

A pioneer in the use of catalytic trace elements and plants for over 40 years, Laboratoire BIOLIGO has combined knowledge and expertise to create a range of highly effective and totally natural quality complexes: the POE range.

They strengthen the constitution and are particularly effective for:

• Natural defenses
• Reactive hypersensitivity
• Hormonal imbalances
• Detoxification
• Digestion and intestinal transit
• Iron deficiency
• Elimination
• Menopause
• Aging
• General well-being
• Joints and remineralization

The Trace Element Preparations are the result of research by Laboratoire BIOLIGO. Contrary to popular belief, it is not enough to put several trace elements in water to obtain formulas for global oligotherapy. Trace elements are very unstable elements; they each have their own pH and redox potential, which must be respected if the formulas are not to precipitate.

The products are preserved by maltose syrup, which is a sugar very well assimilated by the body, and by alcohol. This results in a pleasant-tasting, not overly alcoholic formula, with a shelf life of over 3 years.

Laboratoire BIOLIGO uses catalytic trace elements in ionized form, the only form that is directly assimilable and effective. To these trace elements is added a plant extract with identical therapeutic properties: while masking the metallic taste of the trace elements, these plant extracts potentiate the mixtures.

What are catalysts used for?

Like vitamins, trace elements are catalysts for our body. A catalyst serves to facilitate biological functions and to reactivate deficient or slowed-down functions.

Thus, the time and energy required for their realization are reduced. Recovered intact at the end of the reaction, catalysts can be reused.

What are the advantages of the ionized form?

The liquid, so-called ionized, form allows significantly lower doses to be used with increased effectiveness. Ionized trace elements pass quickly into the blood, without the need for digestion for their assimilation. They are, in a way, pre-digested. Their speed of assimilation is thus increased, and consequently, the return to health is accelerated. The ionized form must be in solution.

Furthermore, the use of low doses in specific proportions and quantities makes intoxication impossible. Trace elements, though essential to life, could also be toxic, but to achieve this, one would have to ingest, in a single dose, 200 doses for the most toxic or up to 1200 doses for the less toxic ones.

Comparison between Global Oligotherapy and Nutritherapy

• Nutritherapy: Nutritherapy offers a much slower and less effective gastric assimilation.
• Global Oligotherapy: Ionized trace elements are absorbed sublingually and directly assimilated into the body.

An example everyone knows: salt in water.

Salt immersed in water dissolves... Nothing is lost, everything changes! Trace elements thus become easily assimilable...

How to take ionized trace elements?

The ionized form of trace elements allows them to directly cross cell membranes, including the membranes of the numerous blood capillaries located under the tongue. This is why it is necessary to keep the dose in the mouth for 30 seconds before swallowing it. It is also recommended to take trace elements before or between meals, without diluting the dose. This helps to avoid potential interference with certain components of our diet.
