Definition
A bitter glucoside compound found in gentian plants, responsible for much of the characteristic bitter taste and medicinal action.
Etymology
From gentian plus the chemical suffix -in, designating an organic compound; related to gentianic and gentianin compounds.
Kelly Says
Gentiin is so bitter that herbalists historically used it as a 'bitters' tonic—your body's bitterness receptors actually trigger your stomach to produce more digestive juices, making gentiin work like a natural digestive reset button.
