Digestive bitters (a tonic for digestion and stress-relief - no cocktail required!) - the use of bitter herbs is a great balance to the rich and sugary treats of the holidays!

Use these directly on your tongue before a meal if you tend to have trouble digesting fattier meals or feel bloated after eating (you can also take them after a meal). Use a few drops any time you are feeling anxious. This blend includes: gentian, globe artichoke, dandelion, passionflower and chamomile - with some balancing ginger and sweet fennel. $10 for 30ml travel size, or $30 for 100ml (+HST) (available for pick up in clinic) - Email to orderNOTE: bitters should not be used with certain conditions - particularly if you have active ulcers in your stomach or intestines or if you are on stomach acid suppressing medication. Consult with your medical provider first if you have gallstones or are pregnant or breastfeeding.
