What goes into our bellies is meant to go down and stay down in order to be properly processed and digested. But sometimes we overeat, eat things that our bodies do not like, or our stomach’s just aren’t cooperating. The result- icky tummy: indigestion, reflux, heartburn, nausea, belching, poor appetite.Bitters have been used in many cultures for centuries to aid digestion.In Chinese medicine the action of the bitter flavor opens through to promote downward motion - in this case of the digestive tract. Bitters also promote the release of bile and other digestive enzymes that stimulate and tone the digestive system. They help the body eliminate toxins by stimulating the liver. Added to a glass of water, this tasty tincture makes a refreshing pre-meal drink to “prime the pump” of the digestive process.
