Tabit® is an herbal preparation indicated for acute or chronic loose stool, lower intestinal cramps caused by bacteria or food-borne bacteria, flatulence or related problems caused by stomach bacteria. Tabit® is also suggested for general GI tract health, especially when it is compromised by fungal, yeast or bacterial infestation.  Tabit® contains a powerful tannin: the extracts of wild rhubarb root or Canaigre. It is complexed with Zinc and with Proline and Hydroxyproline amino acids.

Who should consider this formula?

Tabit® is available to adults and children above 4 years of age.  Long term therapies not recommended for severe diarrhea symptoms lasting more than 2-3 days as a more serious condition may be the cause of the diarrhea, and medical attention should be sought. Tabit® is also suggested for flatulence, complications caused by abnormal floral overgrowth, traveler's diarrhea.

How does Tabit® work?

Tabit® works in the same manner as Tanalbit®: attaching to the outer membrane of the target cell (in this case bacteria) which disables the cell and prevents proliferation and growth.  Like Tanalbit® it is non-toxic with the occasional minimal side effect of constipation. If this occurs, reduction in dosage is suggested.
