Uses:
G.I. Motility: Proper gastrointestinal motility is essential for optimal rates of nutrient and fluid absorption, elimination of toxins and overall abdominal comfort. GI motility is regulated by over 100 million neurons embedded in the walls of the GI tract. Collectively known as the enteric nervous system, or the “gut brain,” these neurons communicate by way of numerous neurotransmitters and neurohormones to coordinate smooth muscle contraction. Clinical studies indicate that supplemental melatonin calms the intestinal tract, provides mucosal protection, maintains normal inflammatory balance and promotes immune function in the GI tract. Melatonin also supports the normal regenerative capacity of the epithelia. Ginger promotes gastric emptying and upper GI comfort and may relieve occasional nausea. Ginger also supports mucosal glutathione levels and maintains healthy mucosal cytokine and eicosanoid production. Clinical evidence has indicated the value of Boswellia serrata in maintaining slower contractile patterns of intestinal smooth muscle. AKBA, a major triterpenoid in boswellia, promotes mucosal integrity and healthy leukotriene balance in the ileum and colon. Curcumin supports healthy TNFα production and gene expression through nuclear factor kappa B activity. Quercetin supports intestinal barrier function and complements melatonin in maintaining normal neuromuscular activity in the ileum and colon by maintaining presynaptic acetylcholine retention at neuromuscular junctions of the GI tract.
