Bitter belly- Botanical Digestive Support for Gut, Liver & Vitality

Bitter Belly is a grounding digestive tonic crafted from time-honored bitter roots, aromatic seeds, and gentle botanicals that awaken digestion and restore balance. At its foundation is a dual-extracted blend of dandelion and gentian, traditional allies for stimulating bile flow, easing bloating, and supporting liver vitality. Balanced with warming ginger, cardamom, and cacao, plus tart cherry and vanilla for depth, this elixir offers both function and flavor.

Formulated to promote smooth digestion, reduce gas and heaviness, and enhance nutrient absorption, Bitter Belly is an everyday ally for gut health. Its profile combines bitter, aromatic, earthy, and lightly sweet notes into a harmonizing elixir that restores digestive fire and comfort after meals.
