Liver & Gallbladder Support: Traditionally used to support bile flow and help the body process dietary fats more efficiently.

General Tonic: Gentian has been used as a strengthening herb for those who feel “run down,” especially when digestion is sluggish and appetite is poor.

Cleansing Support: Because of its effects on digestion and the liver, Gentian has featured in many classic cleansing and spring tonics.
