Digestive Aids

Planetary Formulas Candida Digest is based on the classic Hinga Shtak compound of the 5,000-year-old tradition of Ayurvedic herbalism. It is a combination of warming carminative herbs designed to support normal digestion. In addition, atractylodes and green citrus peel, two highly regarded Chinese digestive tonics, and dandelion, a valuable digestive bitter from the European and American herbal traditions, are included. The result is a broad spectrum of ingredients for digestive-supporting activity.

Research has shown that deglycyrrhizinated licorice supports and promotes a healthy stomach lining and intestinal flora. Planetary Formulas DGL is licorice from which the glycyrrhizinic and glycyrrhetinic acids have been removed. These acids are associated with high blood pressure. Professional strength DGL Licorice reflects the dosages and preparations used in clinical studies.

The use of herbal bitters has been an integral part of almost every herbal tradition in the world. Extensively used in Europe, herbal bitters help enhance digestion and assimilation by stimulating taste receptors on the tongue. This increases the flow of bile from the liver, which supports both digestion and the body's natural cleansing processes. Bitters are especially beneficial when taken after a heavy meal, or for general support of a healthy liver. Planetary Formulas Digestive Grape Bitters provides the three main classes of bitter herbs: tonic, warming and aromatic bitters.
