Scientific Summary

Gentian is a bitter root from the Gentiana plant, commonly used in herbal preparations. It is employed as a digestive tonic, anti‑inflammatory and hepatoprotective agent, and is often added to bitters and liqueurs to aid digestion. Because of its strong bitterness and potential to lower blood pressure, it should be used cautiously and avoided during pregnancy or if you are taking medications that affect liver function or blood pressure.
