Canadian Bitters is traditionally used in herbal medicine as a digestive tonic and bitter to aid digestion and help relieve digestive disturbances. The formula combines gentian, globe artichoke, ginger, dandelion, chamomile, turmeric, burdock, black walnut, and other certified-organic herbs.
Adults should take 1 to 1.5 mL, equal to about 30 to 45 drops, three times daily in a little water on an empty stomach. Take each dose 15 to 60 minutes before meals.
Each 1 mL contains 0.22 mL of globe artichoke leaf extract, equivalent to 55 mg of crude herb at a 1:4 ratio. Artichoke is one of the formula’s principal bitter herbs and is included alongside gentian and ginger.
Each 1 mL provides 0.14 mL of dandelion whole-plant extract and 0.14 mL of gentian root extract. The dandelion is listed as a 1:1 extract equivalent to 140 mg fresh herb, while gentian is a 1:4 extract equivalent to 35 mg.
Each 1 mL also contains chamomile flower, turmeric rhizome, burdock root, black walnut fruit hull, and ginger rhizome. Their listed crude-equivalent amounts are 25 mg chamomile, 25 mg turmeric, 90 mg fresh burdock, 17.5 mg black walnut, and 8 mg ginger.
Yes. Canadian Bitters is identified as vegan and organic, and the herbs are described as certified organically grown. The package also carries USDA Organic certification, which may be useful for customers looking for an organically produced herbal digestive tincture.
Do not use Canadian Bitters if you are pregnant, have acute stomach irritation or inflammation, or have stomach or duodenal ulcers. These contraindications are specifically listed for the tincture and should be considered before beginning use.
Consult a health care practitioner if you are breastfeeding, have liver or gallbladder disease, have an intestinal obstruction, or if symptoms persist or worsen. Professional advice is also appropriate when these conditions or ongoing digestive symptoms are present.
Some people may experience headaches. Stop using the tincture if hypersensitivity or an allergic reaction occurs. The product information does not list other specific known adverse reactions, so these are the stated reactions and actions to watch for.
The tincture contains alcohol among its non-medicinal ingredients, so it is not an alcohol-free formula. The product is supplied as a 50 mL tincture and is intended to be diluted in a little water when taken according to the adult directions.
