Big 33.8fl oz bottle of Swedish bitters
This 3.38fl oz bottle of Swedish Bitters Elixer is claimed to be prepared according to a centuries-old recipe to provide the benefits of bitter foods often missing from the modern western diet.<br /><br />Compared to a natural human diet, modern western diets tend to be sugar- and salt-rich to make the food more addictive and tasty. This product is particularly useful for maintaining good, balanced digestive function especially if you sometimes have to eat on-the-run and don't have the time to prepare `proper food,' and most especially if you have any kind of impaired liver function.<br /><br />Swedish bitters are also claimed by sufferers to help with all kinds of other conditions, from fibromyalgia to viral illnesses to acne. The manufacturer however promotes no such claims, and it's best to consult with your doctor or herbalist prior to having high cure-expectations; though it needs to be emphasised that the product is safe with no cautions or counter-indications, so swallowing the liquid poses no health risk.<br /><br />The squared-off bottle is of thick brown glass, with a plastic screw-top. It's very secure and robust. You only need a teaspoonful at a time and don't usually need to take it every day, so the content can last some weeks. The elixir itself is watery in consistency, with a pale brown color. It dissolves in a glass of water if you want to take it that way.
