The bitter taste on the tongue triggers a cascade of beneficial digestive events, including the release of stomach acid, bile, and pancreatic enzymes. This prepares the entire GI tract for optimal digestion. The Maria Treben formula is a classic, synergistic blend of herbs that holistically supports this process.&#8221;<\/p>\n<footer>\u2014 Dr. Anya Sharma, ND, <cite>Naturopathic Doctor &amp; Master Herbalist<\/cite><\/footer>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The Time-Honored Tradition of Herbal Digestive Bitters<\/h2>\n<p>For centuries, bitter herbs have been used to prime the digestive system before a meal. The bitter flavor activates a reflex in the nervous system that signals the entire digestive tract to ramp up its function. This stimulation helps the body to more efficiently break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, leading to better nutrient absorption and reduced feelings of fullness, gas, and bloating. To learn more, you can read about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liebertpub.com\/doi\/10.1089\/acm.2014.0176\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">how bitter herbs stimulate digestion from a review in the <em>Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine<\/em>.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>A Synergistic Blend for Liver and Gallbladder Support<\/h2>\n<p>Our comprehensive 11-herb blend includes ingredients like Angelica Root, Dandelion, and Artichoke, which are known as cholagogues and choleretics. These herbs specifically support the healthy function of the liver and gallbladder, promoting the production and flow of bile, which is essential for digesting fats and carrying away waste products.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Use<\/h2>\n<p>As a dietary supplement for adults, take one (1) teaspoon in water or herbal tea, up to two times daily. It can be taken before meals to stimulate digestion or after meals to help relieve feelings of fullness.<\/p>\n<h2>Important Safety Information<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Contains approximately 38% alcohol.<\/strong> This product contains Rhubarb Root and Senna Leaf. Read and follow directions carefully. Do not use if you have or develop diarrhea, loose stools, or abdominal pain because Rhubarb and Senna may worsen these conditions. Consult your physician if you have frequent diarrhea, are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary><strong>How do bitters work?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p>The bitter taste on your tongue activates the vagus nerve, which sends signals to your entire digestive system. This &#8220;wakes up&#8221; your digestion, stimulating the release of saliva, stomach acid, bile, and digestive enzymes to prepare your body to break down food efficiently.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary><strong>What does this taste like?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p>As the name suggests, this is a very bitter-tasting tonic. The bitterness is what makes it effective. It is best diluted in a small amount of water or tea to make it more palatable. It is not meant to be sweet.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary><strong>Why does this product contain alcohol?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<p>Alcohol is a traditional and effective solvent for extracting the full spectrum of beneficial compounds from the herbs. It also acts as a natural preservative, ensuring the stability and shelf-life of the tonic without the need for artificial additives.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>*FDA Disclaimer:<\/strong> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
