Taking digestive bitters before eating stimulates the "ball" (your digestive system) by activating bitter taste receptors on your tongue, triggering a reflex through the vagus nerve to release saliva, stomach acid (HCl), bile, and digestive enzymes, preparing your stomach to efficiently break down food, digest fats, absorb nutrients, and ease potential indigestion. You can get some dried dandelion and then put it in capsules to take it orally . If you have never tried taking a bitter before a meal then I highly suggest it .
Do your own research ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
