THORNE Pepti-Guard (Stomach Support) 60 Vegetarian Capsules

Are you fed up with gastrointestinal problems? Thorne's Pepti-Guard was developed to specifically support the microbiota in the upper GI tract, especially in the stomach. The formula contains licorice (DGL) and organic aloe vera with healing properties for the gastrointestinal tract, while berberine HCI and bismuth citrate can support a healthy microbial balance. Pepti-Guard is best used in an 8-week protocol with two capsules, twice daily, between meals.

Key features and benefits that may result from taking the product:

• Relief of occasional stomach discomfort
• Support for digestive health
• Support the health of the lining of the mucosa
• May help to balance out bacterial strains in the upper digestive tract

DGL can support healthy digestive function by stimulating the production of mucus, the main part of the stomach's protective lining. The licorice root in this form is deglycriticized, avoiding potential side effects such as increased blood pressure.

Aloe Vera from the inner fillet gel of the aloe plant can contribute to the regeneration process of the sensitive gastrointestinal mucosa without causing stomach upset or a laxative effect.

• Bismuth citrate, a natural mineral that can help soothe irritation of the gastrointestinal tract and mucosa, while helping to maintain microbiological balance

Berberine is especially helpful in maintaining a balance of beneficial bacteria in the upper gastrointestinal tract.
