Cynarin
The artichoke (Cynara scolymus) is a type of thistle that was already eaten by the Greeks and Romans. In 1954, Italian researchers isolated the substance cynarin from it, one of the caffeoylquinic acids that give it its slightly bitter taste. The artichoke extract in this formula is standardised to 13% caffeoylquinic acids.

Targeted formula packed with nutrients
Meet Bile Nutrients by Seeking Health, an effective formula with nutrients and herbs specifically aimed at supporting the gallbladder and the liver. Good bile production is essential for digestion to run smoothly. After all, bile plays an important role in the absorption of nutrients in the gastrointestinal tract. Bile also provides a cleansing function for the liver and thus for the removal of toxic substances from the liver. Because the gallbladder and the liver work together in producing bile, it is important to also support the liver when you want to support your gallbladder function, lipid metabolism and the absorption of fats. This unique formula from Seeking Health therefore contains, among other things, choline, taurine and milk thistle, which support the cleansing function of the liver. Choline also contributes to normal lipid metabolism. The added taurine, milk thistle and ginger have an antioxidant function, and herbs such as artichoke and ginger support digestion. (Claims for plants are pending European authorisation.)

What is the function of bile?
Bile is continuously produced in the liver from cholesterol, which is then combined with taurine and glycine and stored in the gallbladder. Bile has several important functions. One of them is lubricating the small intestine to ease bowel movements. The balance here is important, as too much bile can lead to diarrhoea and too little to constipation, which results in an increased toxic load in the body. Bile also transports toxins from the liver to the intestine and ensures that this process can continue continuously. Another important function of bile is supplying glycine and taurine, the building blocks for bile salts, which are needed to break down dietary fats. The fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K can also only be properly absorbed in the small intestine if enough bile is present. Bile therefore plays an important role in removing waste products, in keeping digestion running smoothly and in the absorption of nutrients such as essential fats and fat-soluble vitamins.
Epigenetics & Seeking Health
Epigenetics refers to the countless factors that influence our gene expression. The name epigenetics was coined in 1942 by biologist Conrad Waddington and literally means ‘around the DNA’, referring to the markings around the DNA that can switch genes on and off. The idea behind it is that an organism's experiences, living conditions and diet have a major influence on its hereditary make-up. For Ben Lynch, epigenetics stands for the power of our genes and for the fact that we do not have to submit to our DNA, but can work together with our genes and only need to know how to shape this cooperation. Lynch's method is therefore aimed at detecting our DNA markings (also called SNPs or ‘single-nucleotide polymorphisms’) and making them manageable with the help of supplements and changes in diet and lifestyle, so as to ‘clean up dirty genes’, as it were, in Lynch's words.
About Seeking Health
Seeking Health was founded by Ben Lynch, who wrote the book Dirty Genes in 2018 after years of research. Lynch obtained his doctorate in naturopathic medicine at Bastyr University in Washington and has helped thousands of clients, doctors and health professionals worldwide to apply insights from epigenetics in a holistic way to optimise their health. Lynch, currently the most consulted expert in the field of epigenetics, is convinced that our genetic fate is not fixed, but that through the right diet and lifestyle we can work together with our genes and so realise the genetic potential of our body.
