The modern diet is often lacking in one of its four cornerstones – bitter foods. Bitterness plays an important role in digestion, stimulating bile production, breaking down fats, lessening feelings of fullness or gas, and promoting regularity. If you struggle with digestive issues, we’ve got news: this bitter truth can be easy to swallow (and can improve your digestive health). Maria’s Swedish Bitters, developed by Austrian herbalist Maria Treben, is a natural tonic that blends traditional herbs that have been used for generations to fill the bitter void and ease digestion.
Traditionally used in Herbal Medicines as a digestive tonic and a mild laxative.
