A gift of nature lasting
several million years.<\/h1>\n

The healing spring of rare residual seawater from the Tertiary Mountains has not really changed in millions
of years, and after 20 years of Vincentka\u00ae's modern history, its healing offer of health from the depths
of nature is unusually wide and varied.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Vincentka is a unique and unparalleled product. Its originality stems from the place and time of its origins in the exceptional lithological, tectonic and geochemical conditions of the early Tertiary era.<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

The unique underlying geological layer in and around Luha\u010dovice forms flysches. These are characterised by alternating layers of sandstone, conglomerates and mudstone. As these rocks are not water-permeable, the residual water from the Tertiary sea has been preserved deep underground. However, tectonic breaks in the impermeable rocks around Luha\u010dovice allow this water to rise to the surface. The healing effects of Vincentka are substantiated not only by study of its composition and by corroboration by physicians, but also by the historically close connection between the healing spring and the Luha\u010dovice spa.<\/p>

Vincentka was known as a universal medicine and \u201cour grandmothers\u2019medicine\u201d. Its healing and preventative effects have been proven by centuries of use. Its content and the balance of mineral salts and elements within it give Vincentka the ability to help dissolve phlegm in the airways, stomach and intestines. Drinking and inhalation therapies are recommended for sufferers of respiratory and vocal chord diseases, metabolic disorders, ulcerative gastric and duodenal problems, for recovery after gastric or duodenal surgery, for chronic liver enlargement, diabetes mellitus or chronic pancreatitis. The mineral water helps to regenerate the internal environment in the human body after heavy sweating (sport, hard physical labour or high fever) and brings the metabolism back into balance after alcoholic excesses.<\/p>

One sip of Vincentka suffices to meet the daily recommended intake of iodine, which is important for thyroid gland function and may also help to prevent dental cavities in children. Vincentka is suitable as a nutritional supplement for athletes, children, pregnant women and people recovering from illness. It is also recommended to prevent the occurrence and recurrence of dry inflammation of the nasal mucous membrane.<\/p>

Healthy breathing plays a major role in our lives. Vincentka\u2019s unique characteristics have made it a trusted friend for all people who need to focus on preventing damage to and healing their airways. This includes not only mothers with small children, pregnant women, athletes or artists whose voices need care, but also anyone with an active approach to life.<\/p> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The special healing character of Vincentka has not changed over the centuries. Only the technological process of preparation and bottling has changed, the quality control of the chemical composition, stability and durability of this natural mineral water has improved.<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Vincentka is created by mixing residual sea water and regular underground water with natural carbon dioxide. However, its composition differs greatly from today\u2019s sea water. The sea that serves as the source of Vincentka comes from the Tertiary era, i.e. from prehistoric times, when seas were unaffected by artificial fertilisers, pesticides, waste water from chemical and water treatment plants or from other modern conveniences with which people have \u201cenriched\u201d nature. The original mineral sea water dates from the time when the sediments formed. The natural spring structure at Luha\u010dovice therefore dates to the Eocene era, the informal geological section of the Tertiary era, approximately 60 million years ago.<\/p>

What is residual sea water?<\/b><\/h6>

It is sea water that was trapped in the Tertiary rock folds and volcanic activity 60 million years ago. As it is squeezed upwards, it comes into contact with natural carbon dioxide at certain depths and forms diluted carbonic acid, which dissolves and gathers mineral salts from individual geological layers as it rises to the surface and then mixes with underground water in a ratio which creates drinkable water with a content of mineral salts which have healing effects. The unique healing character of Vincentka has not changed over the centuries. Only the quality of preparatory processing and bottling has changed with technology, and the quality of the monitoring of its chemical composition has improved the stability and shelf life of this natural mineral water.<\/p><\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
