    To Soothe, Repair and Support a Healthy Gastrointestinal Lining.

    Description

    • Ingredients in Glutagenics have been shown or traditionally used to:
    • Relieve mild gastrointestinal discomfort, pain and minor inflammation.
    • Protect gastrointestinal mucosa and gut integrity.
    • Great tasting powder to aid digestion.

    Clinical Benefits

    Evidence demonstrates that nutrients such as glutamine, zinc and vitamins A and D protect the gastrointestinal (GIT) mucosa and restore intestinal epithelial integrity.

    Protective effect on gastrointestinal mucosa and gut integrity: Glutamine may supply a source of nutrients to the cells of the intestines, protecting the gut mucosa from damage and promoting repair. Glutamine and vitamin A protect the integrity of the intestinal tract by increasing secretory IGA (sIGA) secretion and therefore inhibiting the adherence of gram negative bacteria, to help resist dysbiosis. In addition, glutamine and zinc enhance epithelial regeneration, supporting and protecting mucosal barrier integrity.

    Gut pain and inflammation: Aloe vera has been used traditionally for its protective effects on the gastric mucosa. This is possibly due to its inhibition of the inflammatory mediators PGE2 and IL8. Boswellia has traditionally been used to relieve digestive spasms and pain as well as relieving inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. BosPure Boswellia is a proprietary extract of Boswellia.
