Digestive bitters for bile flow—liposomal liver and G.I. support

Sluggish bile and weak digestive fire make detox and fat digestion harder. Dr. Shade’s Bitters® No. 9 is a liposomal blend of classic bitter herbs and essential oils—dandelion, milk thistle, gentian, burdock, goldenrod, orange, myrrh, juniper, and clove—for practitioners who want fast-acting G.I. and liver support without swallowing large bitter tablets.*

Stimulates bitter receptors on the tongue and supports bile movement for comfort before or after meals.

Why Bitters® No. 9?

  • Bile & digestion — Bitter herbs support bile flow and meal-time comfort.*
  • Liver & kidney pathways — Traditional botanicals for detox and elimination.*
  • Fast liposomal uptake — Liquid delivery begins working in the mouth.*
  • Flexible dosing — Pump into water, sparkling water, or sublingually.*
  • Practitioner staple — Pairs with Liver Sauce® and Ultra Binder® phases in detox plans.*

Who is this for

  • Patients who need gentle bitter-herb support before heavy detox mobilizers.*
  • Anyone with bloating or slow digestion who tolerates ethanol-based liquids.*
  • Practitioners who prefer pump dosing over capsule bitters.*

The Quicksilver Advantage

Bitter tablets often dissolve too late to trigger the full bitter-receptor cascade. Quicksilver liposomalizes the botanical matrix so actives contact the tongue and mucosa immediately—the pattern Dr. Shade uses across the detox line.*

FAQ

How is Bitters No. 9 different from Liver Sauce®?

Bitters No. 9 focuses on digestive bitter herbs and essential oils for bile and G.I. comfort; Liver Sauce® is a heavier detox mobilizer with R-lipoate and DIM for practitioner protocols.

Will it upset my stomach?

Bitters stimulate digestion; mild sensation is common. Start with one pump and increase with your clinician if you tolerate it well.

Can I take it with binders?

Yes—typically timed apart from Ultra Binder® (or Ultra Binder® Capsules) per PushCatch®-style schedules your practitioner provides.

Why ethanol in the formula?

Quicksilver liquids use ethanol as part of the liposomal carrier; hold sublingually briefly if you want mucosal uptake before diluting in water.

Does it replace digestive enzymes?

It supports bile and bitter signaling, not pancreatic enzymes. Many patients use both under professional guidance.

How long does one bottle last?

At 2 pumps twice daily, about 12 days; at lighter use, up to roughly 25–50 days.
