  • Seroyal/Genestra Black Walnut Capsules 90 Vcaps Seroyal/Genestra Black Walnut Capsules 90 Vcaps

    Combination of black walnut and natural plant ingredients that support digestive health. • Traditionally used in Herbal Medicine as a digestive tonic to aid digestion. • Provides 400 mg of black walnut hull, quassia bark, and yarrow flower per daily dose • Includes 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   Black Walnut Capsules is a blend of herbs that are traditionally used to support digestive health. Black walnut, quassia, wormwood and gentian root all contain extremely bitter compounds, including tannins, quassin, absinthin, and amarogentin. These 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. Gentian root and quassia may help support digestion by increasing prostaglandin-mediated cytoprotection in the gastric membrane; prostaglandins stimulate the release of mucous and sodium bicarbonate in the stomach.   Serving Size: 2 Vegetable Capsule   Servings Per Container: 45   Amount Per Serving Black Walnut (Juglans nigra) Hull200 mg Quassia (Quassia amara) Bark200 mg Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) Flower200 mg Sweet Wormwood (Artemisia annua) Herb150 mg Gentian (Gentiana lutea) Root100 mg Pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo) Seed Extract (5:1) (500 mg Dried Equivalent)100 mg Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) Bud50 mg   Other Ingredients Hypromellose   Suggested Use Take 2 capsules 2 times daily, 15 to 60 minutes before meals, or as recommended by your health professional.   Warning If you are pregnant, lactating, have acute stomach irritation, inflammation, stomach or duodenal ulcers or an allergy to plants of the Asteraceae family, do not use.

  • Seroyal/Genestra Intest-gen 05 fl oz Seroyal/Genestra Intest-gen 05 fl oz

    Phytoembryotherapy is a branch of phytotherapy that specifically incorporates plant embryological tissues (buds, young shoots, etc.) containing plant meristem cells - undifferentiated, fast dividing cells which contain the plant's genetic blueprint and material. These embryonic tissues are rich in beneficial phyto-chemicals including: growth factors and plant hormones, enzymes, nucleic acids, oligoelements, and phytonutrients such as polyphenols and flavonoids. These embryological tissues are also utilized because many of the above-mentioned components are lost in fully developed plants once chlorophyll is formed. These embryological tissues are also utilized because their energetic components are at their highest levels when they are harvested in the spring - the most active phase of the growth cycle.   Serving Size: 10 Drop   Servings Per Container: 53   Amount Per Serving English Walnut (Juglans regia) Bud Extract (1:20) 4.7 mg Dried Equivalent 0.09 ml Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) Young Shoot Extract (1:20) 4.7 mg Dried Equivalent 0.09 ml Lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea) Young Shoot Extract (1:20) 4.7 mg Dried Equivalent 0.09 ml   Other Ingredients: Purified water, ethanol (grain), glycerin Take 10 drops once daily or as recommended by your health professional.

GI Support Products

At Vita Living, we know that good gastrointestinal (GI) health is the basis of good overall health. The GI tract is made up of the stomach, intestines (large and small) colon and rectum. The colon is especially important for absorption of nutrients and immune system support. An unhealthy colon can cause problems with digestion, chronic fatigue, depression and more. When the GI system does not work properly nutrients are not absorbed effectively and vitamin and mineral deficiencies may result. Intestinal support supplements can help prevent and treat digestive disorders that can lead to acid reflux, colitis, irritable bowel system (IBS), constipation and even colon cancer. At Vita Living, we offer a full array of gastric support supplements.

Good nutrition and good bowel function is the basis of good health. Probiotic supplements from Vita Living support good digestion and a strong immune system while warding off bloating, gas, constipation and other symptoms of poor GI health. The friendly bacteria that make up probiotics are natural to the GI system. They keep the colon healthy and reduce inflammation. In the past, people ingested these bacteria in fermented foods; however, this is not common today, so supplementation is often necessary.

In addition to healthy, natural probiotics, a few other supplements are helpful in GI tract health. Among them are the amino acid, L-Glutamine, which helps repair damage to the intestinal tract and provides steady energy. N-Acetyl Glutamine is a protein that aids the digestive tract in the formation of mucin, which acts as an internal lubricant. This protein also supports proper absorption of nutrients. Additionally, herbal supplements such as chamomile can provide relief from IBS, bloating, gas, cramps and other forms of digestive distress. Proper use of GI support supplements, a healthy diet and good stress management can help fend off illness and the ravages of aging.
