Dr. Shade’s Bitters No. 9 – Digestive Bitters – Fast Acting Liposomal Bitter Herbs to Support Liver Detox, Kidney + Gut Health (50ml)
Quicksilver Scientific Bitters No.9 is a unique and powerful blend of digestive bitters intended to help support healthy digestion and nutrient absorption. This natural formula contains 9 distinct herbs and essential oils with digestive, liver-supporting, antioxidant, immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory properties that work together to promote optimal digestion and well-being. This unique liposomal blend virtually instantaneously stimulates the bitter receptors on the tongue signally optimal bile flow further downstream in the digestive tract.
Nine bitter herbs and essential oils, all known to help activate bitter receptors and to be able to support bile flow and healthy digestion.*
These liposomal bitters are designed for enhanced absorption and nearly instantaneous effect.
The difference is clear: this product’s clear consistency can only be achieved with liposomes that are small enough to pass between cells. The smaller, more stable vesicles begin absorbing as soon as they hit the mouth.*
This product uses phosphatidylcholine from purified sunflower seed lecithin. It does not contain gluten.
Digest, Mobilize & Detox
Natural Momentum – Proper bile flow is a key element of wellbeing and digestive comfort. It involves the GI tract, kidneys, liver, and gallbladder. Bitters No. 9 is designed to address this entire system.*
GI Botanicals – Gentian may help stimulate digestive secretions, while essential oils such as myrrh and clove may support proper gut flora.*
Detoxifying Flow – Momentum is needed to ‘unstick’ and move bile throughout the system. Solidago, milk thistle and dandelion are included for their diuretic, bile mobilizing, and liver, kidney and gallbladder-supportive properties.*
Fast-Acting – Our advanced liposomal format lights up bitter receptors as soon as it hits the tongue and circulates quickly in the body.*
BILE FLOW: The Missing link in Detoxification
Detoxification is a complex, multi-step process that moves toxins out of cells, into the liver and gallbladder and out of the body via the digestive tract and kidneys. For decades, detoxification protocols have primarily addressed the intestine and kidneys, overlooking the critical role of the gallbladder and bile flow in facilitating successful detoxification. Bile is a fluid produced in the liver and secreted by the gallbladder that both aids in the digestion of dietary fats and transports toxins into the intestine so they can be excreted from the body. Bile is comprised of bile acids, salts, phospholipids, cholesterol, and water. Fascinating research indicates that the cellular transporters that move bile acids and salts in and out of the intestine also transport toxins. Therefore, sluggish bile flow, also known as cholestasis, slows toxin efflux and impedes successful detoxification. Various factors contribute to cholestasis, including gallstones, biliary disease, chronic liver disease, certain medications, excess estrogen, and endotoxin, also known as lipopolysaccharide or LPS.
In addition to having a direct negative impact on detoxification, poor bile flow contributes to gastrointestinal dysbiosis and conditions such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Insufficient bile flow may also promote the formation of intestinal biofilm, a consortium of microorganisms embedded in a sticky matrix that allows pathogens to evade antibiotics and the immune system, enhancing their infectivity. Dysbiosis, SIBO, and intestinal biofilm exert negative feedback on detoxification by increasing LPS and inflammatory cytokines, creating a vicious cycle of bile stagnation and GI distress.
