Cuachalalate: Nature’s Remedy for Ulcers & Digestive Disorders

Digestive disorders affect millions of people each year. These conditions can involve different parts of the gastrointestinal tract, such as the esophagus, stomach, liver, intestines, gallbladder, and pancreas. Some common digestive disorders include gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gallstones, celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and peptic ulcers.

Symptoms may include: 

  • Bloating
  • Pain 
  • Heartburn
  • Constipation 
  • Diarrhea
  • Nausea 
  • Vomiting 
  • Bleeding 

Peptic ulcers are common and painful sores that affect the stomach lining or small intestine. The most common cause of stomach ulcers is H. pylori infection, affecting about 44 percent of people worldwide. Long-term use of medicines such as ibuprofen or aspirin can also cause ulcers in the stomach. A common misconception, especially in Hispanic culture, is that stress and spicy foods cause ulcers. However, there is no evidence that this is true. Stress and spicy foods can make present ulcers worse.

Symptoms of peptic ulcers may include:

  • Burning stomach pain 
  • Bloating or belching
  • Heartburn
  • Nausea
  • Intolerance of fatty foods 

For years, natural ingredients have been used to promote relief from various digestive discomforts. Common natural remedies that support digestive health include the use of ingredients such as chamomile, spearmint, ginger, fennel, senna leaves, sangre de grado, aloe vera, and the star of the show, cuachalalate.  

What is Cuachalalate?

Cuachalalate is a tree of Mexico belonging to the Julianiaceae family. It grows in the Southern part of Mexico and has traditionally been used for thousands of years as an herbal remedy. Rather than the leaves, it is the bark of cuachalalate that is most sought after. In Mexico, cuachalalate is a legendary plant well-known by most of the population.

What is Cuachalalate Good For?

Research has found that cuachalalate may have the ability to promote anti-ulcerous and anti-inflammatory effects in the stomach. Cuachalalate is considered a medicinal plant in Mexico and is used for a variety of health concerns, such as:

  • Inflammation 
  • Stomach Ulcers
  • Cholesterol 
  • Gallbladder stones
  • Digestive discomfort 
  • Toothaches
  • Gum health

Where can I Buy Cuachalalate in the US?

Cuachalalate+ is a combination of cuachalalate bark, sangre de grado, and black pepper fruit extract to support optimal digestive health. Sangre de grado, also known as “dragon’s blood,” contains the alkaloid taspine, which has anti-inflammatory properties. Black pepper fruit extract is included to support enhanced nutrient absorption and decreased inflammation. Cuachalalate+ can be used to support the relief of stomach ulcers, gastritis, IBS, and symptoms of intestinal discomfort.
