What is Swedish Bitters?
Swedish Bitters is a herbal mix that was found in the pharmacopeias since the Middle Ages and was formulated by Paracelsus of Swiss (German Origin) also known as the «Luther of Medicine» sometime in the 15th century. Later it was rediscovered by well-known Swedish physician, rector of medicine, Dr Claus Samst in the 17th century who said the following about Swedish Bitters recipe: «It can be said, and rightly so, that there is hardly any illness where Swedish Bitters is not of benefit, or at least is effective as a basis for every treatment». Dr. Claus Samst created a manuscript describing some 46 problems Swedish Bitters has helped relieve during his practice.
In 1980 very well know author and herbalist Maria Treben was introduced to this recipe when she was very ill with typhoid fever in a camp in Bavaria, caused by contaminated meat. After it helped her to recover, she made Swedish Bitters mix into a very popular remedy in her book «Health through God’s Pharmacy» and said the following: «These drops heal every illness. It sounds almost like a fairy tale, but it is true.»

WHOLE LOT of bitter for this price!
After doing a bit of research I have an impression that not all bitter is actually made for «health» reasons… there are bitters that are more medicinal and some are used for taste! Yep, that is right! I guess people add them to coffee, tea… you name it, for licorice taste. This particular bitter is made for more medicinal reasons which in my case is what I was looking for. Also, the price is good! Basically, if you use this packaged substance with 1 or 1.5 liters of vodka… I mean, that is WHOLE LOT of bitter for this price! After ordering this bitter few times and using it regularly, I would say my immune system is really doing good, liver, heart… I don’t know… I like it!
What Alcohol is better to Use when making Tonic?
Q:
I bought 1 liter of Svedka Vodka which looked larger than the 1.75 liters bottle next to it on the shelf. The 1 liter cost more than the 1.75 liters bottle. When I measured the 1 liter, it was roughly 40 ounces. Might you recommend some other options for the alcohol? Will the quality of the vodka or other types of alcohol affect the taste/quality of the bitters? Thank you for shedding light on this.
A:
You will get more Swedish Bitters tonic if you use 1.75 or 2 liters bottle of vodka. Our Swedish Bitters mix is 200 — 210gr. and is designed to make you 1.5 to 2 liters of tonic, which is when used daily will give you about 3 month worth of remedy. You can also use brandy, and some even use wine to make Swedish Bitters tonic. We recommend using 1.75 liters 40% alcohol vodka.
Are these herbs free of pesticides?
Yes — the herbs are free of pesticides! The herbs are cultivated all over the world. After the harvest, they enter the European Union via the harbor of Hamburg where they are checked by the health office. This office is known to be very strict in regards to contamination of health products such as herbs.
There is no doubt about the quality of the herbs.
What is Kandis? Is it a sweetener? Can I use it if I am diabetic?
Q:
Some suggest that if you are diabetic you could leave out the Kandis. I assume it is a sweetener? Is Kandis included in your package?
A:
Yes, our packaging has all the herbs and Kandis in one package. Kandis is a pure form of sugar.
The amount of Kandis in each package is only 20 grams, and one pack of Swedish Bitters is enough to use for several months. If you will take 20 grams of sugar in several months it is near to be harmless.
Keep in mind that Kandis play a very important role in the ingredient of Swedish Bitters because it helps to get the active agents delivered faster into the blood.
Questions about the Camphor (kampfer)?
Some customers ask questions about the Camphor (Kampfer). If someone wants to get rid of the Kampfer in the mix — you can scatter the herbs of a plate or a tray for 24 hours and the Kampfer will evaporate.

Can Swedish Bitters help with Candida?
Swedish Bitters can be a useful part of your Candida treatment. By increasing the production of digestive enzymes like hydrochloric acid, they improve your digestion and help to raise the acidity of your intestines.
The Candida yeast needs an alkaline environment to switch to its fungal form and spread around your body, so this extra acidity helps to re-balance your gut flora.
Swedish Bitters have a number of positive effects on the way that your body works. Not all of these are relevant to Candida, but they are all beneficial to the smooth and efficient running of your internal systems.
CAN SWEDISH BITTERS REGULATE STOMACH ACIDITY?
By stimulating the production of digestive enzymes such as hydrochloric acid, Swedish Bitters help to maintain a healthy, acidic environment in your stomach. There is a lot of confusion among Candida sufferers over acidic or alkaline environments. Just remember that Candida thrives on alkalinity — increasing your stomach acid is one of the easiest ways to slow Candida growth and re-balance your gut flora.
CAN SWEDISH BITTERS MANAGE BLOOD SUGAR?
Swedish Bitters help to regulate the production of insulin in your pancreas. This can help prevent the spikes in blood sugar that can cause changes in your mood and energy levels. Most importantly, those blood sugar spikes are what has actually been feeding your Candida, so stable blood sugar levels will slow down your Candida overgrowth.
CAN SWEDISH BITTERS SUPPORT LIVER FUNCTION?
The liver is a vital part of your digestive function, and Swedish Bitters promote the efficient functioning and cleansing action of this important organ. The Bitters stimulate bile production, helping to metabolize fats and promoting smooth elimination, and they prepare the liver to process nutrients efficiently.
CAN SWEDISH BITTERS REDUCE STRESS?
Stress is actually a much more important factor in Candida overgrowth than many people realize. High levels of stress and adrenaline production weaken your adrenal glands, which in turn weaken your immune system. Bitters have a subtle, beneficial impact on your mood and in some cases can even have an antidepressant effect.
CAN SWEDISH BITTERS BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM?
Your immune system is very complicated and involves many different parts of your body. Swedish Bitters can help in at least a couple of these areas. Firstly, by reducing the stress they allow your adrenals to function properly. Unhealthy adrenals weaken your immune system and your defenses against Candida. Secondly, bitters are supportive of your immune system because they help to repair the lining of your gut. This helps prevent Leaky Gut Syndrome, a disease whereby food from your intestine leaks into the bloodstream and causes an immune response. A healthy gut lining leaves your immune system free to fight the Candida overgrowth.
CAN SWEDISH BITTERS AID DIGESTION?
Swedish Bitters stimulate peristalsis, the contractions that help push food along through your digestive system. So bitters can actually help with mild constipation too.
