We tried Artah’s gut health and probiotic supplements – and found going tablet-free to be a game changer

We’ve tried a lot of health supplements in our time, and many of them are not small. Their size can make it a somewhat unpleasant experience for some, which is why we were so pleased to learn that Artah’s digest and debloat blend comes in liquid form. This not only makes it much easier to ingest, but was definitely a far more enjoyable way to to take our daily dose and therefore felt like something we’d be more than willing to stick with for a longer period of time.

The product comes with a pipette, which you use to take 1.5ml of the blend twice daily with water. Whether you choose to drink it as a tea or neat to combat symptoms of indigestion is up to you. The taste is bitter, mind, but you then go on about eating your meal or drink a glass of water and it’s all soon forgotten.

The brand claims this product is ideal for aiding sluggish digestion, as it combines some potent bitter stimulants with calming digestive tonics to address inflammation and banish bloating. Featuring a mix of organic wild yam, chamomile, dandelion root, artichoke, lemonbalm, mugwort and gentian, we have to admit we easily got into the habit of taking this before eating anything at the start of the day, as well as after our last meal. We did find that despite eating a range of, shall we say, “exciting” foods, once we were in a routine of taking our daily dose, we were free from bloating and cramps which usually presented themselves after eating foods that were particularly high in fat.

For those who do not mind taking supplements in tablet form, the enhanced synbiotic capsules could be for you. Available in a pack of 60 tablets, with the recommended dosage of one to two capsules a day, these should last you a month.

Designed to support your gut microbiome, the enhanced synbiotic contains “scientifically studied probiotic strains” all aiming to address health issues such as digestion, mood, immunity, metabolism, skin and sexual health, plus digestive enzymes to help the body break down and absorb nutrients. There are also polyphenolic prebiotics from cranberry and pomegranate for antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial benefits.

As it was just one tablet in the morning and another before or after the evening meal, these tablets were not an inconvenience for us to try. That being said, like with any supplement, we did have to adjust to our new routine of including them and remembering to take them 20 minutes before eating or two hours afterwards.

While we can’t explicitly state whether we noticed an improvement in areas such as immunity and mental wellbeing, we did notice an improvement to our overall digestive system. There was a lack of bloating and cramps, making us feel as though these capsules work in perfect harmony alongside the digest and debloat blend. We also noticed a mild improvement to our skin, however, once again, this could be due to a more regimented skincare routine. Either way, there was certainly no regression in this area and we certainly aren’t complaining.
