Horseradish

Armoracia rusticana

Derived from the roots of Armoracia rusticana, Horseradish is recognized for its robust, pungent flavor that belies its culinary signature. It's the plant's brimming content of glucosinolates, sulfur-infused compounds with a range of potential benefits, that truly make it noteworthy.

Inside the body, these glucosinolates are metabolized into a variety of biologically active compounds, including indoles and isothiocyanates, which each play distinct roles in health and wellbeing. Particularly relevant to gut health, the glucosinolates in Horseradish foster a conducive intestinal environment. They encourage the proliferation of beneficial gut bacteria and maintain a balanced gut microbiome, critical elements in smooth digestion, particularly at night when the body is predominantly in recovery mode.

Furthermore, the enzymatic processing of glucosinolates stimulates digestion and ramps up the production of gastric juices. This assists in breaking down food more effectively, relieving digestive discomfort such as bloating or indigestion, and establishing regular bowel movements. This function not only enriches the quality of night-time rest but also ensures a comfortable and energizing start to the following day.

While Horseradish may not be an obvious choice when considering rest-enhancing agents, its unique biochemical profile supports nighttime digestion and regular bowel movements.
