Welcome to our FAQ section! Here we answer the most frequently asked questions about tigogreen products. Whether it's tigovit green tea capsules or tigofem lady's mantle complex, you'll find all the important information about dosage, interactions, and special instructions here.


1. Why can tigovit green tea capsules cause nausea? And what can I do?

Green tea extracts such as the polyphenols and catechins contained in tigovit are very effective, but can trigger nausea on an empty stomach in sensitive individuals. People who are not used to bitter substances and polyphenols in their diet may react sensitively during the first few days of use. To avoid nausea, we recommend always taking tigovit green tea capsules with plenty of water and approximately one hour after a meal. This aids absorption and ensures a gentler effect on the stomach. It is also important to introduce the tigovit green tea capsules slowly. This means that you should start with one capsule a day and then gradually increase to the desired daily dosage. It is also important to take the capsules throughout the day. The initial nausea usually disappears after a few days of transition and metabolic adjustment.

2. Are there any medications that should not be taken together with tigovit?

Yes, certain medications may interact with the ingredients in tigovit . People taking blood thinners (anticoagulants) should especially consult their doctor before taking it. Green tea can affect blood clotting, which could increase the effect of blood thinners. Furthermore, medications for regulating blood pressure and cholesterol should be discussed with a doctor, as green tea can also affect these. In any case, medications, as well as iron, magnesium, or calcium supplements, should always be taken one hour apart .

3. Can tigofem be combined with the pill or hormone replacement therapy?

The ingredients of tigofem include isoflavones . Therefore, it is important to seek medical advice before taking tigofem with hormonal contraceptives such as the pill or hormone replacement therapy (HRT). There may be potential interactions, especially if hormone regulation is affected by medications.

4. Are there any contraindications such as pregnancy, breastfeeding or taking certain medications?

Yes, there are certain situations in which taking tigovit and tigofem is not recommended . Pregnant and breastfeeding women should avoid both products, as their effects on the unborn or breastfed child have not been adequately studied. In addition, people taking medications for blood thinning, high blood pressure, or cholesterol regulation should consult a doctor beforehand to rule out possible interactions.

5. At what time of day should I take tigovit and tigofem?

There is no set time of day for taking tigovit or tigofem, but it is recommended that both products be taken approximately one hour after a meal to ensure optimal tolerability and absorption. This minimizes the risk of stomach upset and promotes the best effect of the ingredients. Taking them in the morning or at midday is ideal, as green tea extracts, particularly the epigallocatechin gallate in tigovit, can have a mildly stimulating effect , even though all green tea extracts are decaffeinated . Dosage should be spread throughout the day, no later than 4 p.m.

6. What should I keep in mind when taking tigovit and tigofem?

  • tigovit : Always take the capsules after a meal with plenty of water to counteract a sensitive stomach.
  • Tigofem : It is important to be aware of possible interactions with hormonal medications. Furthermore, Tigofem should not be taken in combination with alcohol, as this could impair its effectiveness.
For both dietary supplements, tigovit and tigofem, it's important to adhere to the recommended dosage and not exceed it. Combining them with omega-3 fatty acids promotes the absorption of EGCG from green tea extract . Tigovit and tigofem can therefore be taken very well together with omega-3 oil.
