Tormentil has a high tannin content (10% to 30%) which is responsible for its astringent action on the digestive tract. Tannins bind to the proteins present in the mucous membranes, producing a coat on the membrane surface which protects the exposed tissues from irritation. This helps to relieve inflammatory bowel conditions and reduce the frequency and severity of loose motions.

Avena sativa enhances the action of the remedy by exerting a mild sedative and restorative effect on the nervous system, which also calms an over reactive digestive system. This is particularly relevant in the condition of IBS.
