Product Benefits

• Relief of digestive discomfort. Metagenics Digestex provides digestive support¹ with traditional western herbs to relieve symptoms such as bloating and stomach discomfort.^2,3 Meadowsweet, traditionally used to soothe and protect the gastrointestinal tract4 is combined with carminative and anti-spasmodic herbs⁵ to help relieve intestinal spasm by relaxing intestinal muscles.⁶
• Stimulation of digestive secretions with bitter herbs such as dandelion^7,8 and gentian. Gentian has traditionally been given orally to increase saliva, gastric and bile secretions.⁹ Bitter herbs do not need to be tasted to stimulate upper digestive function¹⁰ as they activate taste receptors (TASR2) located throughout the gastrointestinal tract.¹¹ TASR2 hormonal and neuronal signalling may affect the secretion of pancreatic enzymes and bile helping to regulate stomach function and acid production.¹²
• Digestive motility.¹³ Ginger stimulates antral contractions, reduces postprandial antral area, and accelerates gastric emptying.¹⁴ Animal studies indicate that ginger contains a combination of spasmogenic (cholinergic) and spasmolytic (calcium antagonist) constituents¹⁵ to support gastric motility¹⁶ and aid digestion.^17,18
• Part of the Metagenics Detoxification Program. Digestex contains the traditional liver herb dandelion to assist digestive processes¹⁹, and ginger to assist gastric motility for improved digestive transit time. Activation of gastrointestinal bitter receptors is thought to indirectly improve the elimination of absorbed toxins from the gut epithelium.²⁰
