Hifas da Terra, reference in the care of the environment
Marta Hifas |
'Always Good for You, Now Better for the Planet ’, Under this premise in Hifas da Terra we turn to one of our great objectives: take care of the environment while we get involved in improving people's health.
For this we use ecological ingredients, we follow quality standards with Pharmaceutical certification of good manufacturing practices (GMP), we use 100% vegetable capsules, we pack in glass and use paper from sustainable forests
Through Hifas-vet, spin-out centered on animal health, we lead the Hifas-Apis R&D Project, an initiative through which survival and general health of bees have improved, responsible for world biodiversity and food biosafety
Thus, we put our know-how in mycology applied to the welfare service, but not only through our products. We also develop research studies and promoting R&D projects that maintain our commitment to the environment.‘Always Good for You, Now Better for The Planet’, Under this premise we articulate all environmental initiatives that also have an impact on improving people's health.
fungi and environment
The fungus They are fascinating beings who have survived the extinction of other species evolving and adapting. They are intelligent and very efficient organisms that have been able to keep their communication network alive to fulfill their Ecological function. They are due to them soil interconnection, nutrients and plants; A fundamental trinomial for the development of life on earth.In Hifas da Terra, connoisseurs of the biological relevance of fungi in the care of the environment we bet on taking advantage of the potential of fungi in the recovery of the planet's sustainability, either with R&D and Environment projects or with the making of impact business decisions.
Carbon footprint
Thus, we generate oxygen from which we consume more than 120,000 trees A year, trees that have a great involvement in the recovery of landscape and soil. In addition, we support the sustainable economy generating value resources in the rural for the coming society. While certain fungi manage to degrade polluting substances, others They return life to inert lands associated with the roots of chestnut trees, oaks and various conifers. These mycorrin fungi species provide great resistance and vigor to plant species helping them to survive in adverse conditions.
Bees: corner stone of biodiversity
One of the most impact initiatives on biodiversity led by Hifas da Terra is called Hifas-Apis and addresses the disorder of colonies collapse (Collapse Disorder, CCD), Recurrent phenomenon in Europe since 1998 that causes abnormal death in colonies of domestic bees and that contributes to the Extinction of bees; A problem of food biosafety and biodiversity of world transcendence: The pollination carried out by bees depends more on one 33% of the food we consume "According to Greenpeace," and 90% of wild species, according to FAO. Those responsible for the decrease of the population of these insects are pesticides, non -sustainable agrarian practices, ecosystems degradation, etc. These factors added to the colonies collapse disorder ー cluster of parasitic, viral and infectious diseases that affect hives ー have made the Declive of bees in Europe ascends to 37%.Hifas-Apis It is the R&D project carried out by Hifas-vet, Spin-Out of Hifas da Terra focused on animal health, which has managed to impact on health indicators and survival of bees. The project results demonstrated important increases in the immune system and survival of bees, but the most amazing was the Increased reproductive capacity by 300%. The hives that took the fungal-based product developed by Hifas-Vet had three times more breeding than those who took a placebo with the same nutrients but without the product formulated by the hyphae research team.
360 traceability
Besides, Hifas da Terra maintains a commitment to quality, safety and effectiveness in all its products, guaranteeing, through Hifas Quality System, 360º traceability from the cultivation process to the final product, a greater concentration of active biomolecules through a Double sustainable extraction and Triple analytical check To guarantee the best accessories.
