Frequently asked questions

We design our products close to nature. Most of our products contain micronutrients of natural origin. We rely on high-quality raw materials, whose origin we know exactly and which we purchase exclusively from renowned raw material suppliers. 

All food supplements from WIDMANN are vegan.

This is absolutely possible, because different combinations of minerals and vitamins are also basically absorbed through food. For some micronutrients, the uptake is favored by the parallel intake of another micronutrient. It is assumed, for example, that the absorption of OPC in combination with vitamin C is ideal. When taking combination preparations in conjunction with mono-preparations, you should observe the consumption recommendation for the individual micronutrients as a whole.

Yes, we guarantee that our products do not contain lactose or gluten. 

Since our dietary supplements are based on powdered active ingredients, it is important to store them in a dry place, well closed, protected from light and at normal room temperature. Due to the humid environment, storage in the bathroom or refrigerator is not recommended.

The exact intake recommendations can be found on the respective product packaging and on the label. In principle, fat-soluble vitamins (for example, vitamins A, D, K) should ideally be taken with a meal and not on an empty stomach. Zinc should preferably be taken in the evening, ideally on an empty stomach. If the recommendation is to take the preparation twice a day, you should stick to this, because the body cannot fully absorb too much of the active ingredient at once. Furthermore, you should avoid foods that inhibit absorption, such as coffee or black tea. It is known that phosphates in sausage or soft drinks inhibit the absorption of calcium and magnesium. Sugar, salt and protein-rich foods favour the excretion of calcium. Sugar also blocks the absorption of chromium.

The expiry date is printed on the outer packaging and jar. 

Our nutritional supplements are developed, manufactured and controlled exclusively in Germany according to strict quality criteria.

Due to our many years of activity in the healthcare sector, the issue of social responsibility is particularly close to our hearts. That is why we also pay attention to a sustainable packaging concept. Unlike many suppliers on the market, we have deliberately opted for food-safe, transparent glass jars that are fully recyclable. We dispense with plastic packaging as far as possible. 

According to the EU Health Claims Regulation, as a manufacturer of dietary supplement products, we are only allowed to make very specific health-related claims. For certain ingredients, mostly of plant origin, there are still no authorized statements of effectiveness. Unfortunately we cannot provide any more information. However, further information is available from trustworthy sources on independent health platforms. Your doctor, naturopath or nutritionist can also give you well-founded information on the possibilities of individual micronutrients.
