Magnesium supports a variety of functions in the body. These include bone health, psychological function, muscle function, contributes to the maintenance of normal energy metabolism energy production and muscle contractions and the nervous system health.
Triphala Extract
Derived from the fruits of Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry), Bibhitaki and Haritaki, triphala has played a prominent role in Ayurvedic tradition for over 1,000 years. Considered a pillar of gastrointestinal support in Ayurveda, triphala features a host of bioactive compounds.
Its major constituents include tannins, gallic acid, ellagic acid and chebulinic acid—potent antioxidants. It also provides the flavonoids quercetin and lutenolin, as well as various saponins, anthraquinones and amino acids.
Triphala may also promote the proper digestion and absorption of food for a healthy bowel and digestion balance.
Slippery Elm
Slippery elm is widely recognized for its traditional support of gut healthSlippery elm is rich in soothing mucilage, a thick, slippery substance that can coat the lining of the stomach and intestines to ease the flow of intestinal contents.
As demand for slippery elm has increased, quality and sustainability have become paramount. We work only with experienced collectors who responsibly harvest our slippery elm by hand. Using special techniques, our partners harvest the bark from trees that are at least 15 years each spring. The timing is critical, as the running sap from April to July helps the outer bark easily separate from the inner bark, preserving the tree for future harvests.
Marshmallow Root
Althaea officinalis, more commonly known as marshmallow, is a perennial herb native to Europe, North Africa and western Asia. Its beautiful white and pink flowers are found naturally along riverbanks and salt marshes, as it prefers moist, sandy soils.
Marshmallow root has been used as a traditional herb for centuries. It is thought to support the health of the mucous membranes throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Its mucilage, a sap-like substance, is believed to soothe the mucous membranes along these tracts.
