The basis of plant metabolism is photosynthesis. In this biochemical process, solar energy is "captured" and stored in energy-rich carbon compounds.

One such energy-rich compound is, for example, sugar. These compounds are used by the plant (a) as a universal source of energy or (b) used for the production of other compounds.

To stay with the sugar example: The plant can "burn" the sugar in its cells again and use the released energy to drive other metabolic processes. It can also process the sugar into cellulose, for example. Cellulose, also known as wood pulp, is the substance that gives trees their strength and consists of nothing more than long sugar chains.

How can the plant convert substances into each other? The central hub in plant metabolism is the so-called citric acid cycle. The citric acid cycle is like a factory. Here, a wide variety of substances are introduced to produce the required fabrics. With the help of this metabolic pathway, the plant can produce all vital carbon compounds itself: carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, phytochemicals, etc.

And that's where Carbo Care Bio comes in.

The product contains selected active ingredients that also occur in this or similar form in plant metabolism. The active ingredients are absorbed by the plant and used in the cells as a building material to build higher compounds or as an energy source.

This additional supply allows the plant to grow faster and more vigorously. In addition, there is another positive effect: all organic active ingredients based on carbon are biodegradable, because the numerous filter bacteria in the aquarium feed on it.

In the end, only carbon dioxide (CO2) and water remain. Carbo Care Bio provides the plants with vital carbon in 2 ways.

The effect is visible after just a few weeks of regular use: the plants grow faster, more abundantly and healthier, algae are pushed back.
