A herbal gastrointestinal blend of fifteen botanicals, every dose declared — pumpkin seed, chicory root, black garlic, cayenne, Ceylon cinnamon, olive leaf, clove bud, grapefruit seed, fenugreek, aniseed, oregano, shiitake mushroom, konjac, Lapacho bark and thyme leaf. Long popular with naturopaths, colon hydrotherapists and herbalists for use during cleanse programmes.
Fifteen Botanicals, Not a Proprietary Blend
Most herbal gut formulas hide their quantities behind "proprietary blend" labelling. BioKlenz publishes every one. That means you can see that pumpkin seed leads at 200mg, that the olive leaf is standardised to deliver 1mg of oleuropeins, and that thyme comes in at 10mg rather than being a token mention on the label.
These are traditional botanicals with long histories of use in European, Ayurvedic and South American herbal practice — Lapacho bark, better known as Pau d'Arco, comes from the South American tradition. Traditional use is not the same category of evidence as an authorised health claim, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise.
How Other UK Herbal Gut Formulas Compare
Own-brand herbal blends — proprietary quantities. Widely available and inexpensive, but most do not publish individual ingredient doses, and few carry halal or kosher certification.
Single-herb oregano or grapefruit seed capsules — one active. Straightforward and cheap, but a single botanical rather than a formulated blend.
Practitioner-brand formulas — good quality, premium price. Often well made and sold through clinics at considerably higher prices, generally without halal or kosher approval.

How to Take It
Take 1 or 2 capsules, one to three times per day, or as advised. Often used as part of a broader cleanse routine alongside BioHep and BioBlast. Replenishing gut flora with BioTic 4 Billion afterwards is considered good practice.

Questions We Get Asked
Does it contain black walnut or wormwood?
No. Neither is in this formula. Black walnut is a tree nut and appears in many herbal cleanse blends, which rules those out for anyone with a nut allergy or a sensitive gut. BioKlenz uses pumpkin seed as its lead botanical instead, alongside fourteen others.
Which botanical is highest dosed?
Pumpkin seed at 200mg equivalent, followed by chicory root at 120mg, then black garlic, cayenne, Ceylon cinnamon and olive leaf at 100mg each. The olive leaf is standardised to provide 1mg of oleuropeins, its characteristic compound.
Why is shiitake mushroom in a herbal blend?
Shiitake is included at 25mg. It is the most widely eaten medicinal mushroom in the world and appears in this formula alongside the botanicals. For a dedicated mushroom complex with five species at declared doses, Bio Mushroom Boost is the Soil Association organic option.
Is it suitable for long-term use?
The label allows 1 or 2 capsules up to three times daily. Herbal cleanse formulas are generally used in defined periods rather than continuously — many practitioners suggest a course of several weeks with breaks. If you are unsure, or if you take prescription medication, speak to a qualified practitioner or your GP first.
Food supplements should not replace a varied diet or healthy lifestyle. Consult your GP before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, taking prescription medication, or managing a diagnosed health condition.
