Bodily Influences
Gentian is an invigorating tonic, handed down to us from the very early antiquity of medicine, from the Greeks, Arabs and others, which has been long forgotten.

While its taste does not immediately recommend its use, its effect is sought after and a person can learn to appreciate its taste for that reason.

Gentian’s roots contain a vast quantity of condensed oxygen, creating an exhilarating tonic action. Perhaps it is best for us to think of it as containing 6 powerful digest aids.

The Dispensatory of the U.S. offers this word of highly significant and workable advice in the use of Gentian: “It is the condition of the stomach and the system generally, not the name of the disease which must be taken into consideration when prescribing it.

Suggested use
10 to 40 drops following meals or more if overindulgence demands.

Directions on label
For adults, mix 2 ml of extract in 2 oz [60 ml] of water one time daily preferably with a meal.
