Solaray® is proud to introduce a line of products using an innovative herbal extraction and preservation process developed and modified over a century of careful product formulation. Originating in Italy's Pidemont region, the history of the Decottopia™ liquid herbal tonic formulations can be traced back to the 18th century. Over the years, the Decottopia™ tradition eventually became the trusted legacy of the Balestra & Mech brand. Their flagship product was a natural digetive aid launched in 1911 named "Fernet Balestra."

Decottopia™ formulating is an old system that uses a proprietary process to extract active components from a minimum of ten herbs using only water and no solvents. The concentrated synergistic tonic is then maintained in a balanced liquid solution without the use of alcohol, sugar or preservatives!

The herbs used are carefully selected and combined for maximum synergistic effects. The key plant parts are extracted using water and gentled procedures such as infusion, maceration and decoction and then concerntrated in liquid suspension allowing it's conservation.

Today, the descendents of the formulation founders have turned an ancient herbal craft into a thriving and fully modern enterprise. These Italian herbal tonics are now available to the American consumer and offer a natural solution for a variety of health concerns including stress, weight management, digestion support, cleansing, energy support, immune health and more.

Quality Since 1911!
