Enzymedica recently introduced to market a nutraceutical formula containing a combination of artichoke leaf extract, ginger root CO2 extract, and apple cider vinegar, formulated to target issues related to digestive transport and stomach emptying. The new plant-based supplement, Gut Motility, is linked to be a natural, effective, and gentle option for those seeking to promote healthier gastrointestinal motility and gastric emptying.
 
“Gut Motility is truly the first of its kind and highlights Enzymedica’s groundbreaking innovation in creating the highest-quality product htat supports digestive health,” said Marvin Singh, MD, an Enzymedica Scientific Advisory Board member who is double board-certified in gastroenterology and internal medicine, and a Diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Medicine. “As a gastroenterologist, I successfully use this product in my practice to support a growing population of those with slowed motility and delayed gastric emptying.”
 
Proper gut motility, in which the body transports food through the GI tract at a healthy pace, promotes better digestion, nutrient absorption, and elimination. When digestion is unbalanced or sluggish, it can result in bloating, feelings of fullness, nausea, gas, or constipation. Slow digestive motility can be caused due to medication use, a number of physical conditions, or stress, Enzymedica reports.
 
Gut Motility’s key ingredient is ProDigest, a clinically-studied combination of triple-standardized artichoke leaf extract and ginger root CO2 extract, which is evidenced to support healthy digestive transport. The blend also includes the unique addition of apple cider vinegar, sourced from U.S.-grown apples, in order to optimize metabolism and support a balanced pH in the digestive system, Enzymedica reports. Clinical research backs its use to support improved motility, gastric emptying, and occasional bloating and constipation which results from a sluggish bowel.
 
While many artichoke extracts are only standardized for caffeoylquinic acids, ProDigest is unique in that it is standardized for caffeoylquinic acids, flavonoids, and cynaropicrin. The ginger root extract in the ingredient is standardized for the gingerols and shogaols.
