ZenGest from dōTERRA
Nowadays, more and more people are struggling with bowel problems, and this can have a huge impact on how you feel. If you suffer from a sore stomach, intestinal discomfort or bloating, don't ignore it. Our digestive system is an important part of our body. It is a group of organs that work together to absorb nutrients, vitamins, minerals and water and to convert food into energy. Digestion also secretes the waste in our system. And that's why we need to make sure we have a healthy digestive system. dōTERRA has developed ZenGest oil for this, the oil for healthy digestion.
ZenGest is a combination of various essential oils from dōTERRA. In this blend you will find Ginger, Peppermint, Caraway, Fennel, Coriander, Tarragon and Anise. This combination was chosen because of the strong effect each ingredient has on healthy digestion. ZenGest can be used supportively, as well as as as direct relief from symptoms.
Application of doTERRA ZenGest
From ZenGest, we know not only the oil, but also as Softgel, DigestTabs and in a Touch form. The oil has a licorice-like scent and can be put in a diffuser. The oil can also be ingested for immediate relief or smeared on the skin. ZenGest is an oil you really should always have with you. Taking the oil after a large meal with a glass of water supports digestion.
Nutrition & Digestion
ZenGest oil not only has an effect on our physical body, the blend also has a powerful effect on our emotional system. Thus, it has the quality of supporting individuals who have no interest in life and the physical world. These individuals often tend to overdo it by doing too much at once. This overload of information and stimuli can also cause poor emotional “digestion. The mind gets too much “nutrition” and cannot convert it into the energy we need. ZenGest can support this by helping the mind process the stimuli and information.
