Pepti-Guard 120c by Thorne
Pepti-Guard by Thorne is an advanced formulation of the GI support formula, Formula SF734. This specialized formula works to promote a healthy balance of gastrointestinal microflora in the upper digestive tract, primarily the stomach. Pepti-Guard helps to heal and soothe mucosal membranes, while also aiding in maintaining a balanced environment of microbial organisms in the GI tract. It contains the same primary ingredients as Formula SF734, including deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL), bismuth citrate, and berberine HCl. However, an aloe vera extract (200:1) has replaced the bentonite clay due to its impressive healing properties for the gastrointestinal system. This unique combination of ingredients makes Pepti-Guard a one-of-a-kind product in the marketplace. It may help to alleviate symptoms associated with GI distress, while also providing the body with beneficial nutrients.Recommendation:
