Can we have an herbs thread?

Just picked up a bottle of Gentian extract from vitamin world. Supposedly it's the most bitter herb on earth and stimulates secretion of stomach acid and bile, helping digest the FUCK out of all your food.

I've been using it for a few days and I noticed I've been constantly salivating, and can shove down WAYY more food in a meal (helps greatly for bulking). Also sort of makes you feel not as fat (in the stomach area etc) after the meal.

you're getting scammed by those vitamin shops
most of those shit dietary supplements don't do anything except fool gullible people

any "effect" is just placebo

I was actually planning on getting a huge bulk 1lb bag of the raw root from Amazon but decided to try it out first. Shit's cheap af anyway (if you go bulk) like $25 for basically a lifetime supply of bitters. Works great for darker mixed drinks too.

In fact bitters have a super long history of use in medicine & food:

It's some plant that tastes a little like lemon. Like all ayurvedic stuff, a lot of it is drenched in pesticides though.
