Blackmores Peritone combines the laxative herbs cascara and cape aloes to help maintain healthy bowel habits, and ginger, cardamom and peppermint to help maintain regularity without discomfort.
Features & Benefits:
- Helps maintain regularity by supporting the bowel’s natural peristalsis.
- Gentle overnight action supports morning regularity.
-
Includes ingredients traditionally used to calm the digestive system, so does not cause the discomfort sometimes associated with laxative use.
How it Works:
Cascara and cape aloes contain compounds called anthraquinone glycosides, which support peristalsis (the natural wave-like muscle contractions of the intestines) and consequently help maintain bowel regularity.
The gentle action of these herbs in Blackmores Peritone is enhanced by ginger, cardamom and peppermint, which have traditionally been used to relieve digestive discomfort and support comfortable bowel movements.
Active Ingredients:
Aloe ferox (Cape Aloes) leaf inner juice powder
Rhamnus purshianus (Cascara) extract equivalent to dry bark
