Gastrointestinal disorders can be due to poor digestion or transit of food, often resulting in flatulence and abdominal bloating.1 Candicin is a carefully selected blend of essential oils traditionally used in phytotherapy to relieve digestive disorders such as those mentioned above.Ginger root essential oil, known for its traditional use to relieve indigestion, nausea and dyspepsia, contains oleoresin, responsible for its pungent odour. Elements of this resin, notably shogaols, gingerols and zingerone, can bind to receptors on endocrine cells in the digestive tract and pancreas. As a result, gastric and biliary secretion, gastric motility and gastric emptying are increased, and pancreatic digestive enzymes are released more efficiently, reducing transit time in the intestines and providing additional relief for digestive problems. Ginger also improves blood flow to the mucous layer of the stomach and inhibits the serotonin receptors responsible for mediating nausea. Wormwood essential oil contains absinthin, an extremely bitter compound. Like pungent compounds such as ginger, bitter compounds can bind to receptors in the digestive tract and pancreas, responsible for increasing gastric secretion, motility and pancreatic digestion.

Genestra's Candicin formulation offers a complete blend of plant oils - ginger root, wormwood leaf, clove leaf, oregano flowering tops and evening primrose seeds - providing a holistic approach to promoting gastrointestinal health and relieving digestive disorders.
