- Digestive Bitters Tablets (40ct) — Bitter Herbs for Digestion with Gentian Root, Ginger & Artichoke | Gut Health Support | Organic Herbal Bitters Supplement

I want to address the 2 primary complaints about the product which is the taste and its ability to help with cravings Taste: I'm pretty confused with all the complaints about the taste. It's not amazing tasting but in comparison to the taste of these herbs on their own its much better. For those of you complaining, have you ever smelled or tasted Angelica root on its own? It's pretty unpleasant.This product is a significant improvement. Other people have complained also about its ability to control cravings- it has helped me with this. The common issue that this product solves is over eating due to lingering tastes in your mouth like after you eat something salty you want to counterbalance it with something sweet, but then you ate too much of that sweet thing and you you need something salty again. This product neutralizes your mouth to prevent this problem from happening, and the slight bitterness does seem to discourage me from eating more. As for the heath effects- I have noticed on many occasions that it has helped me digest food better and go to the bathroom easier. This is even with me using 1/2 a tablet to 1 tablet.

These bitters are very high quality. I dissolved the first one on my tongue, and it had a pleasant herbal flavor. As the tablet dissolves in your mouth, it releases the bitterness through your saliva onto your palate and settles there. Only a faint herbal taste remains in my mouth after it is completely gone. I can see how some people might be disenchanted with the taste, but I typically drink strong herbal tea without any sweetener, so I’m not affected. Even though I haven’t used these long enough to see how they will affect my appetite, I can tell you that it has almost immediately affected my cravings as the bitterness creates a suppression to eat, as if the tang makes me disinterested in tasting anything. It kind of has the same effect on drinking things in that it makes everything taste sort of bland. I mainly bought these to aid in digestion, and to stay consistent with my intermittent fasting routine. I think they will be very helpful! Also, the shipping was fast and the packaging is very sturdy! I consider this a great product!

One tablet gave me diarrhea. I'm not here for that. The tablets aren't bitter. I left it on my tongue to dissolve like the label says. It was tolerable. I wasn't taking this for appetite control, but if you are after that, it worked for me. Absolutely not hungry at all. Like for days. I'm not sure if this helps with digestion. I have taken different types of bitters and I don't see a whole lot of difference with any of them, but think it's probably doing something good, so I keep taking them. They've been used for thousands of years. A tradition that long cant' be wrong, can it? I'd just pick a different brand next time.

This works but I'd rather have the liquid cuz this will make your tongue wear out

I will start by saying I have IBS so maybe I should've stayed away from this but with that being said I tried 1 tablet. Taste was definitely bitter but doable. I just let it devolve on my tongue. About an hour later I had severe stomach pains that lasted a couple hours even after going to the restroom. I am used to cramping with my IBS but this was more like labor pain! Ugh not going to do that again! On plus side I wasn't hungry or crave sweets at all! :)

I am a sweet junkie and I honestly was really really hoping this product would work.. WELL, IT DOES!! I can not believe it. I have had three tablets so far (suggested 2 tablets before meals) I am fasting so, I have been only chewing one or two a day. I can not say enough. I was thinking that it would cause me to have a bitter taste in my mouth IF i had sweets. But it is even better. I DO NOT EVEN WANT ANY SWEETS. Can you believe it?? Do not feel bad, neither did I. But i am telling you it works. It was nothing for me to eat 2 to 3 Hershey chocolate bars a day. Yes, I love the light Bad chocolate. Dark never really appealed to me. (I hear that is better for us) I must say for the price and the over all flavor was not bad. It has an earthy taste, but it truly was not bad. remember I am a sweet junkie.. and I am very impressed that this really works. I hope if you decided to give it a go, that you find the same satisfaction I have. I will be ordering more and placing on subscription order.

I've only taken a couple of these. The first one was quite a strong flavor. I ended up just swallowing most of it with some water. I decided that the next one I took I would cut in half until I got used to the taste. Today, after lunch I still felt hungry. I had had plenty and there was no reason I should still be hungry. I cut one in half and took it. It is a strong cinnamon/clove type flavor but it's totally doable - not unpleasant just on the strong side. After letting the 1/2 tab dissolve I do not have that same hunger pang feeling. I will keep using them and maybe even a whole one next time. After that bit of initial flavor shock, I feel like the taste will be easy to get used to. I'm happy I tried them!

I don't know what people are complaining about. I'm a supertaster and these are barely bitter. I was hoping for a good bitter shudder, but these are barely bitter at all. The mannitol is a laxative, and after two on an empty stomach before dinner, the next morning I trusted a fart I shouldn't have, and came very close to ruining some pants and was almost late for work because of it. Don't waste your money. Even liquor store bitters are more intensely bitter than this. Maybe they watered down the formula because people where whining that their bitters tablets were actually bitter?
