Chinese Bitters Tincture
250 mL (8.5 fl oz) bottle
Ingredients: Chinese Gentian, Bupleurum, distilled water, ethyl alcohol (23% vol)
Organs affected: Liver, gallbladder, urinary bladder. These herbs are traditionally used to purge toxins from your liver, and also as a natural anti-inflammatory, which can help with arthritic joint pains. They also stimulate the production of digestive fluids.
Chinese Bitters can be used by both men and women, but it has particular application to certain womens' problems such as menstrual cramping, irregular cycles, ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, hot flashes, and endometriosis. Some women with fertility problems have successfully used its menstrual regulation properties in order to become pregnant.
Usage: take 1/2 to 1 teaspoonful (about 5 mL) once daily on an empty stomach, 20-30 minutes before breakfast. Chinese Bitters should not be used in conjunction with any other medications, but if you must use other medications, you should make sure to separate them from the Bitters with a meal (ie- if you take Bitters before breakfast, take your other medication before lunch). Side-effects can include headaches (in which case you should reduce the dosage until the headaches disappear; some people reduce to as little as 1/8 teaspoonful and then slowly work their way up as they detoxify). Chinese Bitters should not be taken continuously for more than a month without at least a week-long break because liver detoxification puts a strain on your liver.
Notes: If you are taking Chinese Bitters in order to cleanse your liver, you might also want to do a liver/gallbladder flush in order to eliminate gallstones because a loaded gallbladder will tend to cause liver problems to return. You should avoid foods that congest the liver, such as spicy foods and nuts (particularly roasted nuts) and especially deep-fried foods.
