Metagenics

Motility Complex may help if you have a slow transit time or have SIBO.   

Motility Complex with Ginger + Artichoke contains a combination of both whole powdered ginger and ginger root extract, together with artichoke leaf extract and N-acetyl-l-carnitine, with the aim of promoting gut motility.

Botanicals such as ginger and artichoke may help to stimulate the Migrating Motor Complex (MMC) function. The MMC is a pattern of smooth muscle contractions that start in the stomach and move through the intestines. Deficient activity of the MMC is considered to be a key underlying cause of SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) and constipation.
