- demonstrate antispasmodic properties, eliminating spasms and pain manifestations;
- contribute to the elimination of toxins from the body and poisons, provoking the occurrence of inflammatory processes;
- stimulate the choleretic process, which, by cleansing the liver, helps to optimize the activity of the pancreas;
- activate intestinal motility, accelerating the release of the body from processed foods;
- contribute to the destruction of parasites that violate the intestinal microflora and introduce an imbalance in the course of digestive processes;
- eliminate the manifestations of flatulence observed with pancreatitis;
