Our Premium Detox 7 Day Comprehensive Cleansing Program is the perfect choice for someone who is looking to completely detoxify their body of any unhealthy impurities.  Some of our detox products are only meant to be used for the short term or limited detoxification process but the Premium Detox 7 Day Comprehensive Cleansing Program is for the long term cleansing.  It contains many vitamins and herbs that have been used for centuries to heal the body.  One of these herbs is called Gentian Root.  Gentian root, also known as feltwort, bitterwort or bitterroot, is derived from a perennial that is found mostly in Central Europe.  The roots of this plant are collected in the fall and dried out before using.  Gentian root is used primarily to increase the appetite in people recovering from acute diseases like dyspepsia, or painful digestion, by increasing the flow of gastric juices. It is a helpful remedy for indigestion, heartburn, anorexia, diabetes, intestinal parasites, stomach aches and liver, pancreas, and gall bladder problems.  It also strengthens the spleen and stimulates urine flow.  By purifying the blood Gentian root helps to treat liver problems.  Gentian root is blended to make a tea to treat stomach ailments.  People who suffer from poor circulation would benefit from Gentian root because it invigorates the blood and stimulates circulation to all parts of the body.  It also helps the intestines absorb fat which in turn helps prevent flatulence and bloating.  Gentian Root will help reduce fever and is used to relieve symptoms of the common cold.  The herb Gentian root has a bitter taste and is usually mixed with other ingredients such as licorice or honey thus earning the nickname bitterroot.  Before hops were introduced into the beer brewing process, gentian root was used because of its bitter taste. It is also used in making the flavor of vermouth.  Gentian root was used as a popular antidote for some poisons in the Middle Ages. It is also believed by many to bring good luck in love and romance. If you have high blood pressure or are pregnant you should avoid the use of Gentian root.
