Gastrointestinal upsets can occur due to poor digestion or improper transit of food, often resulting in flatulence and abdominal bloating.1 Candicin is a carefully selected blend of essential oils traditionally used in Herbal Medicine to alleviate digestive disturbances such as those mentioned above.

Ginger root essential oil, known for its traditional use in easing indigestion, nausea, and dyspepsia, contains oleoresin, which is responsible for its pungent odour.2 Elements in this resin, including shogaols, gingerols, and zingerone, can bind receptors on endocrine cells in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas.2 This results in increased gastric and bile secretion, gastric motility, and gastric emptying.2 Pancreatic digestive enzymes are released more efficiently, reducing the transit time through the intestines and providing further relief from digestive issues.2 Ginger also enhances blood flow to the stomach’s mucosal layer and inhibits serotonin receptors which are responsible for mediating nausea.2 Wormwood essential oil contains absinthin, an extremely bitter compound.3 Similar to pungent compounds like ginger, bitter compounds can bind receptors in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas, leading to increased gastric secretion, motility, and pancreatic digestion.

Genestra’s Candicin formulation offers a comprehensive blend of medicinal plant oils— ginger root, wormwood leaf, clove leaf, oregano flowering tops and evening primrose seed — providing a comprehensive approach to promoting gastrointestinal health and relieving digestive disturbances.
