What does it do?

Capsicum tincture is a component extracted from chili peppers, used to alleviate problems in the gastrointestinal tract. It is mainly used to promote gastrointestinal motility or assist digestion.

Capsicum tincture stimulates the gastric mucosa, promoting the secretion of digestive juices and activating gastrointestinal motility. This leads to smoother digestion and relief from gastrointestinal discomfort.
