It will help to increase digestion by increasing digestive enzymes, improve assimilation, and stimulate elimination to provide fast and effective relief of constipation and underactive bowels. The formula increases peristalsis (the wave-like contraction that pushes contents through the bowel or colon). Moving On stimulates bile and digestive enzyme production, which strengthens the gastrointestinal tract. It also enhances liver function and helps retain moisture in the intestines. Moving On is a non-cramping, gentle formula. Cascara is a predictable laxative that increases peristalsis. It softens the stool by helping it to move out more quickly and can assist in painful bowel movements. Yellow Dock stimulates bile production and is often used as a digestive bitter for those with poor digestion. Increasing bile output causes peristalsis to increase which helps assist in normal healthy bowel function. Yellow Dock contains small amounts of anthraquinone glycosides, which give it mild laxative effects. Yellow Dock also promotes the absorption of nutrients by the ileum. Triphala has been used in the Ayurvedic system of medicine for thousands of years as a bowel tonic and whole body rejuvenator. The formula consists of the three fruits: amalaki, haritaki, and bibhitaki. The combination balances the system by enhancing digestion, drawing stagnated wastes out of the intestines, and gently encouraging healthy and complete elimination. Similar in action to Yellow Dock, Oregon Grape and Gentian are bitters that stimulate the liver to produce more bile and other liver enzymes. They essentially increase liver function and are indicated for those with constitutional deficiency patterns in the liver and digestive system. They will increase fat digestion (by increasing bile) and protein digestion (by increasing HCl and pepsinogen), and speedup the rate in which the liver detoxifies the blood as it passes through the liver. Licorice increases the hormone aldosterone, which increases water retention slightly. It will help hydrate and soften dry stools and acts as a mild laxative. Licorice is soothing to the digestive tract and is known for healing stomach and duodenal ulcers. Ginger will increase digestive enzymes and speed up the transit time of food that is slow. It essentially increases the fire of digestion. It has a history of use in foods to help digest and move them through the digestive tract. It also helps reduce gas and can help prevent and alleviate nausea. Contra-indications and Cautions: Pregnancy, Nursing; Colitis, inflammatory bowel, irritable bowel.

Fiber Decreases Pre- and Post-Menopausal Breast Cancers I n this review of 19 studies covering 1,994,910 pre- and post-menopausal women, total fiber in the diet was linked to an 8 percent decrease in the likelihood of developing breast cancer. Soluble fiber reduced chances by 10 percent, and insoluble fiber appeared to reduce chances by 7 percent. Discussing the findings, Harvard University epidemiological research scientist, Maryam S. Farvid, PhD, said, “Our study contributes to the evidence that lifestyle factors, such as modifiable dietary practices, may affect chances of breast cancer. Our findings provide research evidence supporting the American Cancer Society dietary guidelines, emphasizing the importance of a diet rich in fiber, including fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.” Reference: ACS Cancer Journal; 2020, 32816, Published Online Willner Chemists Product Recommendations by Arnie Gitomer Soluble fiber is available from a plant source such as Inulin .

Fiber, Vitamins A, B1, B6, C, and Folic Acid Aid Lung Function L ong-term exposure to airborne irritants like gases from cigarette smoke and pollution can obstruct airflow from the lungs, leading to several conditions including emphysema and bronchitis, together considered chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Doctors in this study hypothesized that diet could improve airflow. To measure diet, at the start of the study, and during the five-year follow-up, trained dieticians administered a 117-question survey to 1,439 men and women, average age 53, with normal airflow. Some had never smoked, others were current or former smokers. After five years, those that developed an airflow limitation were more likely to be older, male, and have a history of smoking. Compared to healthy participants, men and women with limited airflow had reduced the amounts of fiber, vitamins A, B1, B6, C, and folic acid in the diet compared to those with healthy airflow.
