Natural support for bile function and digestion

Unhealthy diet, inadequate lifestyle, age, diseases, bile stones or gall bladder surgery can cause a bile acid deficiency, which must be replaced or we may have quality of life problems. The two GALLMET products, GALLMET-Mix and GALLMET-Natural, contain similar amounts of bile acids, but GALLMET-Mix also contains herbs (peppermint leaf, white horehound, marshmallow root, liquorice root, fennel) which complement the digestive support of bile acids.

Peppermint is a very versatile herb with antispasmodic and antibacterial properties, which can be used in digestive disorders, bloating and inflammatory diseases of the gallbladder and bile ducts. It is also used to stimulate the digestive glands and can even be used to treat digestive complaints such as fullness, gallstones and biliary obstruction. Thanks to its pectin content, white mallow root has a detoxifying and intestinal cleansing effect, but it also provides excellent protection for the intestinal walls by lubricating them and forming a gel layer. It can also alleviate the symptoms of stomach ulcers, various intestinal inflammations (IBS, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease). In folk medicine, liquorice decoctions are considered a natural remedy for inflammation and stomach problems. It is also particularly recommended for the treatment of kidney stones and gallstones. Fennel is mainly used by mothers with young children to help pass intestinal gas, and is also added to laxative tea mixtures to relieve cramps caused by laxatives.

Both GALLMET products were registered by the National Institute of Food Science as a food supplement in 2012, with the following claims: "Peppermint plays a role in reducing bloating, and together with marshmallow, contributes to the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. It helps to relax the intestinal tract and contributes to healthy digestion and normal functioning of the liver and gallbladder. Licorice supports healthy digestive function. Fennel contributes to healthy digestion."

The effectiveness of the two products also depends on individual condition, sensitivity and response. Customer feedback on both GALLMET-Mix and GALLMET-Natural has been very positive, reporting beneficial effects, relief or cessation of symptoms.
