The taste of bitter is frequently found in plants. For early humans living largely on plant-based diets, consuming bitters was always a part of eating. This had two advantages: keeping digestive systems fine-tuned and ensuring exposure to a wide array of therapeutic plant chemistries. Unfortunately, the modern diet is notably lacking in plant diversity and bitter tastes, especially in the US where food variety seems to lean more toward sweet and salty. Bitter has become the “forgotten taste.” Bitter signals jump-start digestion by promoting enzyme activity that is absent in our diets today. As a result, our digestive systems have become sluggish. One of the best ways to reawaken our digestive systems and rekindle our link to healing plants is to consume bitter herbs, and in particular liquid herb extracts.
