Naturlider Angelica Raiz has carminative, antispasmodic and toning properties that favour the digestive system, helping to relieve heavy digestions. It also helps regulate gastric juices to prevent and relieve heartburn and irritable bowel.
Angelica Raiz is prepared by Naturlider following the traditional process of drying the plant, in order to preserve its essential oils, which act to soothe heavy digestions. In this way, it helps to soothe inflammation and abdominal pain caused by the accumulation of gas, as well as intestinal irritation. It also speeds up digestion to reduce the fermentation time of food in the stomach, thus preventing the production of sulphur, which causes flatulence.
Poor digestion also causes the loss of a large amount of nutrients, hence the importance of supporting gastric function. Its ability to help regulate stomach acid, which is altered by excessive consumption of fats and flours, helps to relieve heartburn and optimise the use of the nutrients present in food.
Angelica root is also a natural diuretic and anti-inflammatory that benefits the urinary tract by helping to relieve inflammation caused by infections. In addition, its ability to increase diuresis promotes the expulsion of micro-organisms that lodge in the urinary tract to help eliminate bacteria such as Escherichia coli, which causes cystitis.
The joints also benefit from the anti-inflammatory effect of this root, as it helps to soothe the discomfort caused by arthritis and osteoarthritis. It also supports the respiratory tract and the nervous system, helping to soothe stress and anxiety.
Farmaciasdirect recommends the consumption of this root for those who suffer from gas accumulation, slow digestion, heartburn and irritable bowel, urinary discomfort, fluid retention and joint problems.
