Gut Motility

Digestive transit issues and discomfort are common digestive challenges, making it feel like food takes too long to digest and causing occasional GI lethargy and bloating. Products to support regularity can be addictive and have harsh side effects.

Gut Motility works with the body to support GI motility and keep food moving through the digestive tract.* It speeds up both digestion and stomach emptying.* When food stays in the stomach and colon, it can cause occasional fullness and discomfort, belly distention, cramps, nausea, gas, and bloating.* Gut Motility helps soothe and calm the digestive system – without side effects or dependency.*

Gut Motility features ProDigest®, a combination of a triple standardized Artichoke leaf extract and a Ginger CO2 extract, that has been clinically studied to deliver gentle relief every time.* This nonaddictive formula promotes gut comfort, improves motility and encourages regular, healthy bowel movements.*

ProDigest works to support the small bowel and the stomach to promote healthy transit times.* Gut Motility delivers this combination of ingredients, which work synergistically to provide foundational muscular health for the entire gastrointestinal system.*

Unlike common artichoke extracts that are only standardized for caffeoylquinic acids, the Artichoke extract in ProDigest is standardized for caffeoylquinic acids, flavonoids and cynaropicrin. The Ginger root extract is standardized for gingeroids (gingerols and shogaols).

Two human clinical studies have demonstrated the significant benefits of this combination. It was effective after short-term treatment in improving, by 34% over placebo, symptoms related to digestive discomforts like epigastric fullness, bloating and unwanted early satiety. Overall, 86% of participants reported a marked reduction of discomfort intensity.¹ A second study showed that ProDigest significantly promotes gastric emptying by 24% over placebo without being associated with notable adverse effects.²

The addition of Apple Cider Vinegar powder, made from real USA-grown apples, enhances the formula. Unlike ACV extracts that are simply acetic acid, this unique ingredient source includes additional beneficial compounds commonly associated with the “Mother” in liquid vinegar.
