Why is Underberg good for you?

Underberg for Digestion & Gut Health

Underberg is often praised for its digestive benefits, thanks to its proprietary blend of herbal extracts.

Here’s how it works:

1. Stimulating Digestive Enzymes

• Underberg contains a blend of herbs known to stimulate the production of digestive enzymes and bile.
• This helps break down fats and proteins more efficiently, reducing bloating, gas, and discomfort after heavy meals.
  
  

2. Supporting the Gut Microbiome

• The herbs used in Underberg have natural antibacterial and antifungal properties, which may help maintain a balanced gut flora.
• Some bitter herbs have been linked to promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, aiding digestion over time.
  
  

3. Easing Bloating & Indigestion

• Bitters like Underberg trigger the body’s natural digestion response, promoting peristalsis (movement of food through the digestive tract).
• This can help relieve acid reflux, bloating, and sluggish digestion, especially after rich or fatty foods.
  
  

4. Alcohol’s Role in Digestion

• The high alcohol content acts as a solvent for extracting beneficial compounds from herbs, making them more bioavailable.
• Alcohol itself can also relax the stomach muscles, helping reduce cramps and indigestion.
  
  

5. Traditional Herbal Medicine Backing

• Many of the herbs in Underberg have been used in traditional medicine for centuries. Some common digestive-friendly herbs include:
  • Gentian root – Stimulates digestion and bile flow.
  • Anise – Helps relieve bloating and gas.
  • Fennel – Soothes the digestive tract and reduces cramping.
