Black walnut, quassia, wormwood and gentian root all contain extremely bitter compounds, including tannins, quassin, absinthin, and amelogenin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese bitters cause nerves on the taste buds to increase the release of saliva and gastric juices that aid in digestion. Bitters can also bind receptors on endocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas, which results in the secretion of the peptide hormone cholecystokinin. In turn, this releases bile salts and pancreatic digestive enzymes, increasing gastric motility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGentian root and quassia may help relieve dyspepsia by increasing prostaglandin-mediated cytoprotection in the gastric membrane; prostaglandins stimulate the release of mucous and sodium bicarbonate in the stomach. Quassia, black walnut and pumpkin seeds are also traditionally used in Herbal Medicine as a vermifuge (helps in the expulsion of parasitic worms).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"station-tabs-tabpanel is-active\" id=\"station-tabs-tabpanel_ht-i0-t17\" aria-labelledby=\"station-tabs-tab_ht-i0-t17\" role=\"region\" aria-hidden=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"station-tabs-tabcontent\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditionally used in Herbal Medicine as a digestive tonic to aid digestion and help relieve dyspepsia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides 400 mg of the black walnut hull, quassia bark, and yarrow flower per daily dose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes 200 mg each of gentian root and pumpkin seed extract, 300 mg of sweet wormwood herb and 100 mg of clove bud per daily dose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial Order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"station-tabs-tabtitle\"\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e","brand":"GENESTRA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47665833607342,"sku":"18761","price":34.69,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9889\/9630\/files\/71Oc-lhn6JL.jpg?v=1776795008","url":"https:\/\/muskokanaturalfoods.com\/products\/genestra-black-walnut-90-v-cap-18761","provider":"MNFM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
