The bitter compounds in Gentian stimulate the bitter taste buds on the tongue. this sends a message to the brain to increase bile from the liver, which emulsifies or digests fat. In a lesser way, the bitter stimulation also sends a message to increase hydrochloric acid from the stomach, which increases protein digestion. In other words, bitters stimulate the body’s ability to digest and therefore assimilate fat and protein. . .” (Coven, Herbal Handbook) Contra-indications and Cautions: Do not use if you have ulcers.

Plants contain natural compounds, called phytochemicals, which help them grow, spread, and repel disease, but there is little research on how phytochemicals may increase HDL, the "good" cholesterol, in humans. This review analyzed findings from 14 recent lipid clinical trials covering 1,065 participants that took a placebo or Pycnogenol over a range of study periods. Overall, participants that took Pycnogenol saw an average increase in HDL of 3.27 mg per deciliter of blood. Doctors said the studies did not measure lipids in the diet, but that the significant increases in HDL suggest Pycnogenol may help prevent heart and circulatory diseases. Pycnogenol contains antioxidants, including procyanidins and phenolic acids, which help protect cells from oxidative stress. Pycnogenol also helps protect stores of vitamins C and E in the body. (Reference: Phytotherapy Research; November, 2018, Vol. 33, No. 2) Ginger lowers bad cholesterol, triglycerides. Ginger is part of the same plant family as cardamom and turmeric, and is rich in anti- inflammatory phenolic compounds. In this analysis of 12 lipid clinical trials covering 586 participants, doctors found those taking ginger saw an average decrease in LDL, the "bad" cholesterol, of 4.90 mg per deciliter of blood (mg/dL). Also, triglycerides-the most common fat in the body-dropped by 17.59 mg/dL. Participants in studies using a low dose of ginger-no more than 2,000 mg per day-saw total cholesterol decline by an average of 12.26 mg/dL, and triglycerides decrease by 38.42 mg/dL. Discussing the findings, doctors said elevated blood lipids are a major factor in heart and circulatory problems, and that ginger may be a safe, effective, non-drug, lipid-lowering therapy.
