The gentian is originated from the mountain areas of europe.
it is considered to be one of the most bitter tasting plants
ever found,and as such it is used in modern herbal medicine as a
digestion stimulator. it is associated with medium level effect.
the medicinal use of this plant lies in its root’s. it increases
apetite, stumilates bitterness and digestion and also may be used
as a mild laxative.
there are no known side effects; over dose may result in nausea and in
some rare cases regurgitation; one must be extremley cautious when treating
people who suffer from peptic ulcers or excess acidity in the loins.
