Soothing botanical support for the GI tract

  • Helps maintain stomach and esophageal health

  • Can be taken out of the capsule for a soothing tea

  • Herbs enhance the stomach's protective mucous layer

  • Made without flowing agents that can inhibit bioavailability

 

Deglycyrrhizinated licorice is well known for its ability to optimize mucus production by gastrointestinal mucosal cells and to promote a healthy GI tract. Licorice root preparations have been used for many years for the nutritional support of the stomach and duodenum. Glycyrrhizin is removed from the extract to prevent a rise in blood pressure that has been observed in some individuals taking whole licorice root. Dried, unripe plantain banana powder (Musa paradisiacal) protects the mucosa of the upper digestive tract – the esophagus, stomach, and small intestine – from irritating substances and has been shown to impart soothing support to these sensitive tissues. This enhancement of mucosal resistance may be due to plantain's ability to increase both mucosal thickness and the mucosal concentration of proteoglycans – essential components of a healthy mucus membrane. Slippery elm bark (Ulmus fulva) and marshmallow root (Althea officinalis) contain mucilaginous components that are soothing to the digestive tract.

 

To soothe esophageal irritation, GI-Encap can be taken out of the capsule and mixed with warm water for a soothing tea.

Overall Rating for GI-Encap 180 Vegetarian Capsules
(based on 2 reviews)
Very soothing to the stomach
By Lucas from Latham, NY on March 30, 2012
I suffered from Crohn's disease. I had severe pain after each meal. I hated eating. Then I started taking GI-Encap, Orthobioti powder probiotics and HMF Superpowder biotics.
Between the 3 I was able to eat without pain after a week. It has now been 7 months and I have had no pain and no flare ups.
I suggest you buy the 180 capsule instead of the 60. It's a much better value
Pros:
Works great
Cons:
No negatives

I would recommend this item to a friend.

GI-Encap
By Dale from Apex, NC on March 13, 2012
The GI-Encap by Thorne Research works. My digestive system is more relaxed and the heartburn is gone.

I would recommend this item to a friend.
