Organic Fermented Ginger with Benegut®

Digestive or intestinal issues affect people worldwide. It is estimated that up to 70 million people in the United States alone have digestive problems. Many factors can lead to occasional digestive issues - stress, genetic predispositions, food sensitivities, high-sugar diets, inflammation caused by over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or communication problems between the gut and the brain. Women are up to six times more likely to have intestinal issues.

Fermented ginger with Benegut® elevates ordinary ginger to a new level for digestive tract comfort. The fermentation process makes ginger more bioavailable and effective, helping to alleviate digestive discomfort*. If your gut microbial balance is not ideal or if you have occasional digestive discomfort or other digestive issues, fermented ginger or pre-prepared ginger may be a real advantage for you. Fermented ginger with Benegut® also contains a scientifically verified, patented standardized extract from perilla leaves, called Benegut®. This unique plant compound appears to act on your neurological system, counteracting the effects of stress and other psychosocial factors through the gut-brain axis*.

  • Digestive tract health support — Recent research shows it is also particularly effective for supporting digestive tract health.
  • Nutrient absorption — Your endothelial villi regain their normal height and structure for optimal nutrient absorption in the intestines.
  • Regularity — Improves daily regularity of bowel movements.
  • Bioavailability — The fermentation process makes ginger more bioavailable and effective.

Description

Organic Fermented Ginger with Benegut® - Mercola

These two exceptional components of Fermented Ginger with Benegut® together help:

Digestive or intestinal problems affect people worldwide. According to Dr. Anton Emmanuel, a consultant gastroenterologist at University College Hospital in London, approximately 40% of people have at least one digestive symptom at any given time.

  • Improve digestive tract symptoms such as occasional bloating, flatulence, fullness, and abdominal discomfort.
  • Support digestive tract health.
  • Your endothelial villi regain their normal height and structure for optimal nutrient absorption in the intestines.
  • With the passage of food through the intestine.
  • Support a normal inflammatory response in the intestines.
  • Improve daily regularity of bowel movements.

Fermented Ginger - Key Information:

Fermented ginger elevates ordinary ginger to a new level for digestive comfort. Through the fermentation process, ginger becomes more bioavailable and effective, helping to alleviate digestive discomfort.

If your intestinal microbial balance is not ideal or if you have occasional digestive discomfort or other digestive issues, fermented ginger or pre-prepared ginger can be a real benefit for you.

Detail

Perilla Leaves - Benegut®

And this brings us to the second special plant component of this product.

The plant Perilla frutescens, also known as Perilla leaf or Shiso, is traditionally used to support normal respiratory and immune system function. Recent research shows it is also particularly effective in supporting digestive tract health.

Now available is a scientifically validated patented standardized extract from its leaves - called Benegut®.

Benegut® is not only a high-quality, sustainable, and healthy food ingredient but also a plant that holds promising potential for those seeking an effective pharmaceutical solution to their intestinal issues without using medication.

In vitro and ex vivo studies in humans show that Benegut®:

  • Helps improve digestive tract symptoms such as occasional bloating, flatulence, fullness, and abdominal discomfort.

  • Supports digestive tract health

  • Assists with the passage of food through the intestine

  • Helps support a normal inflammatory response in the intestines

  • Helps improve daily regularity

  • And the mode of action? It appears that Benegut® acts on your neurological system, counteracting the effects of stress and other psychosocial factors through the gut-brain axis.

Dr. Mercola refers to a 4-week study in which 80% of subjects taking the Perilla Benegut® extract experienced significant improvement in stomach and intestinal issues. In this study, Perilla was most effective in reducing bloating and abdominal discomfort in women.

Product Benefits

  1. Made from fermented ginger, which is much more effective than other types of ginger, including raw.

  2. Includes Benegut®, a patented extract from the Perilla frutescens herb, backed by research.

  3. Standardized to the key active Perilla component, Vicenin-2, as well as rosmarinic acid and a special flavonoid fraction.

  4. Contains NO genetically modified ingredients or fillers

  5. Consumption of Ginger and Its Impact on the Gut

  6. The most valuable part of ginger is the root (rhizome) that grows underground. Its oily resin contains many bioactive compounds, including 6-gingerol, 6-shogaol, and 6-paradol.

  7. Supports healthy and hydrated skin. Supports normal immune system status. Also stimulates the growth of other probiotic strains.

During drying, 6-gingerol converts to the more active 6-sh. The compound 6-paradol is a stable, bioactive metabolite of 6-shogaol. This final metabolite provides the most health potential of all three compounds.

Detail

Ginger Metabolism

When it reaches the colon, 6-shogaol naturally ferments into the more bioavailable 6-paradol.
If you have digestive discomfort, there is a high chance that the endothelium in the colon is not functioning optimally. As a result, your body's ability to ferment 6-shogaol or 6-gingerol may be impaired. With ginger that is pre-fermented - with 6-gingerol already converted to the more bioavailable 6-paradol, the entire metabolic process can be easier for your body.

This advanced fermentation process essentially mimics what a healthy gut with plenty of beneficial microbes does to make ginger bioavailable and effective.

If your intestinal microbial balance is less than ideal, or if you have occasional GIT discomfort or other digestive issues, fermented ginger can be a real plus for you.

Study of Ginger's Impact on Animal Model
When dried fermented ginger was fed to 64 male broilers for 42 days, an improvement in their intestinal villi height and cell structure was observed. Similar results were seen in rats. A group of male albino rats was fed a dried fermented ginger preparation. The ginger-fed endothelial villi regained their normal height and structure. Ginger even supported a normal inflammatory response, which aligns with EFSA health claims.

Why does it matter? Villi in the small intestine play a crucial role in nutrient absorption. A larger surface area for your villi allows for more efficient absorption. Many digestive issues can damage or shorten your intestinal villi, making it difficult for the body to utilise the beneficial nutrients in the foods you eat.
