Herbal wisdom, straight from nature.
Zen & Co combines traditional herbal knowledge with vitamins and minerals. Four formulas for vitality, cell protection, nerves and mental performance.
Long Life
A liquid elixir of 14 plant extracts, including the rare, protected Orpheus flower from the Rhodope Mountains.

The liquid form is easy to measure and has a natural herbal taste. No added sugar, no alcohol, no colourings.

Haberlea rhodopensis
The plant that comes back to life.
The Orpheus flower is one of the oldest plants in Europe. It grows almost only on shady limestone rocks in the Rhodope and Balkan Mountains of Bulgaria.
It can dry out almost completely and turns green again after the next rain. That is why botanists call it a resurrection plant.
Its name recalls Orpheus, the Thracian singer from the Rhodopes. Locally it is called silivryak.
The species is protected in Bulgaria. We use it only with an official permit.
Produced under a certificate dated 30 July 2014, based on Permit No. 3980/24.04.2008 of the Bulgarian Ministry of Environment and Water.
Goji Berry
A concentrated goji berry extract. Not a juice, but the fruit in high concentration.
Goji berries have been valued in Tibetan and Chinese cooking and tradition for centuries. They barely keep when fresh, so we turn them into a liquid extract that is easy to take every day.
The goji berry, also called wolfberry, naturally contains plant pigments such as zeaxanthin and lutein. It is sweetened with vegetable glycerine, with no added sugar, alcohol or colourings.
- Composition
- Wolfberry fruit extract (Fr. Lycii chinensis): 500 mg per 10 ml. Other ingredients: water, vegetable glycerine, potassium sorbate.

How
From Bulgaria, with care
Our herbs come from Bulgarian farms and wild meadows. They are hand-picked at peak season, sustainably and with respect for biodiversity.
Origin & quality
From field to bottle.
Our products are manufactured in the EU, at a facility in a valley between three mountain ranges. The area is known for its unspoilt nature and thermal springs.
- Growing and wild harvesting
The plants grow in their native soil and climate, on Bulgarian farms and wild meadows.
- Hand-picked
Harvesting happens at peak season, sustainably and in a way that protects biodiversity and the balance of the landscape. Bees are part of that balance too.
- Short distances
The location of the facility means herbs are processed quickly, straight after harvest.
- Gentle extraction
The facility, modernised in 2024, makes powder and liquid extracts that keep as much of each plant's natural profile as possible.
- Tested and certified
Every batch is tested. The facility is certified to ISO 9001, ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000.

Good to know
From what age does Long Life make sense?
The effects of ageing become noticeable from around 35. Long Life suits adults of any age who want to support their body early, ideally together with a balanced, natural lifestyle.
Can I take Long Life with alcohol?
We don't recommend it, although small amounts are usually harmless.
How long can I take Goji Berry or Ginkgo-Co?
A course usually lasts 2–3 weeks. Longer use is possible with professional advice.

Can I take the products during pregnancy?
Only after consulting a professional. Some ingredients are dosed at levels that are fine for most women, but not for all.
