Product Description

Gentian Root Herbal Tincture

 

Also Known As - Gentiana lutea, wild gentian or yellow gentian, and as gentiana in English-language commentaries on Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Overview - Gentian is a flowering plant that grows quite tall in alpine and sub-alpine fields. This plant is native to the mountains of central and southern Europe. The root is the portion that contains the medicinal properties of the herb due to its intense bitterness. It was also used as an ingredient in certain types of beer brewing before hops replaced it as the main brewing ingredient.

Medicinal Uses - Gentian is a bitter that is used to stimulate the appetite and the digestive system. It increases the saliva, gastric juices and bile. Emptying of the stomach is sped up. Its use is indicated when there is dyspepsia, lack of appetite or flatulence. Using bitters helps anorexia, debility and exhaustion. The herb can also be used to bring on a late menstrual cycle, to treat fever and to rid one of parasites. It is antiseptic. As a tonic, it strengthens the body system, especially after an exhausting illness.

Herbs to Combine/Supplement - A decoction can be combined with lemon or orange peel and ginger to make it a little more palatable and to add the digestive aid of ginger.

Parts Used - The dried root and rhizome of this plant are used medicinally.
