GB-40 Yuan Source

GB-40 Yuan Source is a uniquely balanced formulation containing target enzymes, European, Chinese, South American, and Ayurvedic organic botanicals, and bile salts to help support the health of the liver and gall bladder as well as assist with the emulsification and absorption of dietary fats.*

GB-40 Yuan Source is also a TCM acupuncture point that is considered the clearing, master, gall bladder acupuncture point. Yuan-Source points are known to stimulate the regular meridians’ vital energy, regulate the internal organs’ functional activities, reinforce anti-pathogenic factors, and eliminate pathogenic factors. This organ system is most active between 11 pm and 1 am. Restless sleep or waking during these times may attributed to congestion or “disharmony “ in this organ system.

One of the liver’s main jobs is making bile, an amazing 1 to 1½ quarts daily. The liver synthesizes bile and delivers it to the gall bladder through many tiny bile ducts. The gall bladder is the liver’s storage reservoir for bile. When you eat fat, the stomach signals the gall bladder that fat is on the way—the gall bladder contracts, sending bile into the small intestine to emulsify the fats.

The mildest and most common symptom of gallbladder conditions is intermittent pain called biliary colic, which occurs either in the mid or the right portion of the upper abdomen and/or back. Symptoms may be non-specific. And, while liver and gall bladder flushes can be helpful, there is always the risk of creating a biliary colic if the terrain and biliary ducts and stones are not adequately prepared (practitioners use MetPhos in this case). Some people have silent gallstones that are often discovered when they are being investigated for some other unrelated problem.

In the case of gallstones, much less cholesterol leaves the body because bile flow in the small intestine is needed to precipitate excess cholesterol from the blood. Due to reduced bile flow, cholesterol levels may rise, even though a person’s diet may be good. Bile is a key factor that naturally kills many pathogens, such as parasites, which commonly enter the digestive tract via food. If the bile flow weakens, the digestion may become less efficient, paving the way for more infection.
