Are you ready to learn more about the unique ingredients in the Vemma Bod•ē products? Today we’ll learn about three ingredients included in Bod•ē Cleanse that support healthy digestion and regularity: Senna Leaf, Apple Pectin and Glucomannan.*
Senna Leaf
The leaves of the senna bush have been used traditionally to promote regularity.* It works by stimulating intestinal activity and encouraging healthy functioning of the lower bowels.* Senna leaf, which has milder actions than the pod of the senna plant, is included to promote healthy digestion and elimination.*
Apple Pectin
The old adage “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” has some truth to it because of the high concentration of pectin in apples and apple products. Apple pectin (which is not found in apple juice) is an indigestible fiber that supports healthy microflora in the intestines.* The same pectin found in apples (a polysaccharide) is also found in grapefruit and other fruits, although often in lower concentrations.
Apple pectin is often used as a culinary ingredient to help jellies and jams “set.” Apple pectin is included because of its helpful effects upon digestion and overall health. *
Glucomannan
The natural ingredient glucomannan is a fiber found in the konjac plant (amorphpphallus konjac), a plant native to East Asia. It is derived from the root of this exotic plant with a central trunk and palm-like fronds. High in fiber and virtually calorie-free, glucomannan helps you feel full and satisfied.* Glucomannan works by absorbing water in the stomach to promote a feeling of fullness.* It has been studied for its numerous overall health benefits of maintaining sugar and cholesterol levels already in the normal range. *
These naturally derived ingredients are included in Bod•ē Cleanse to promote feelings of fullness and encourage healthy digestion.*
