Bitter tonics not only stimulate digestion by encouraging the production of digestive enzymes, bile, and stomach acid, but they also work to tone and restore the digestive tract, improving its function over time. These tonics are particularly helpful for addressing sluggish digestion, poor appetite, or imbalances in gut health. Gentian (Gentiana lutea) is a cornerstone bitter tonic known for its strong digestive stimulation and restorative effects. Dandelion root (Taraxacum officinale) serves as a gentle bitter tonic, supporting liver detoxification and healthy digestion. Orange peel (Citrus sinensis) is often added to bitter tonics to enhance their palatability and digestive benefits. Bitter tonics are a traditional and holistic approach to promoting digestive vitality and overall well-being.
