Keeps Things Moving
A blend of bioactives that support gastric emptying & promote regularity. See ya later, constipation!
Why We Love This
Ginger and Artichoke extract help stimulate the migrating motor complex (MMC), which is considered the “housekeeper” of the digestive tract. This helps promote regular bowel movements (see ya later constipation!), prevent bacterial overgrowth from occurring, and reduce painful bloating.

Cortisol Testing
Depending on your symptoms, your Root doctor may also order cortisol testing. Cortisol is a hormone released by your adrenal glands during times of stress. While this was an evolutionary benefit, nowadays we typically do not experience the same constant threats to survival. However, our busy lifestyle may lead to chronically elevated or imbalanced cortisol levels.
Symptoms that may warrant cortisol testing include:
- Anxiety
- Sleep issues
- Feeling wired but tired
- Weight gain
- High blood pressure
- Brain fog
- Difficulty focusing
- ADHD
Cortisol should be at its highest point in the morning to give you energy and lowest before bed so that you can fall asleep. Because of cortisol’s rhythmic pattern, we use saliva testing to collect multiple data points throughout the day. Implementing treatment strategies based on cortisol test results often leads to less anxiety, better quality sleep, and an improved ability to focus.
Here is an example of what cortisol testing results might look like:
