Your digestive system can be very fragile, and it can be thrown into turmoil by changes in diet or increased stress levels. For example, a busy work schedule may force you to eat out more often than you’d prefer. The symptoms of digestive
problems can be uncomfortable and embarrassing: they include heartburn, bloating, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In some cases, other factors—such as underlying illnesses, gallbladder removal, or the overuse of antacids—can
reduce the levels of bile and stomach acid present in your body; this can make you more susceptible to issues with digestion, including the failure to absorb sufficient amounts of nutrients.
Thorne Research’s Bio-Gest® is a lactose-free
digestive aid. Its ingredients allow your stomach to digest proteins more efficiently, while also sterilizing your stomach against harmful bacteria and other pathogens in your food. This supplement promotes the absorption of
important nutrients such as vitamin B-12, calcium, iron, and magnesium.
The key ingredients in Bio-Gest are the following:
Hydrochloric Acid: Helps break down protein and sterilize the stomach.
Pepsin: An undiluted, lactose-free enzyme that degrades food into peptides
that your digestive system can absorb.
Pancreatin: A mix of digestive enzymes naturally produced by the pancreas.
Ox Bile: Increases the production of bile in the liver.
This 60-capsule bottle of
Bio-Gest® by Thorne Research provides 30 to 90 doses worth, depending on the daily dosage recommended by your health care provider. Stop being distracted from your life by digestive pain, and start feeling better today!
