Nutricology Mastic Gum Dietary Supplement - Authentic Chios Matisha, GI Health, Hypoallergenic, Vegetarian Capsules, Gluten Free - 120 Count

great product helps a lot with stomach issues its just lately the package comes with damage

I've tried Nutricology Mastic Gum, and I found it really helpful for my digestion. It’s a natural product, which I like, and it seemed to help with my heartburn and stomach issues. I also read that it has antimicrobial properties, which is a nice bonus.On the downside, it’s not cheap and not everyone might find it effective. Some people might not like the taste, but since it comes in capsules, it wasn’t a problem for me. Overall, I think it’s worth trying if you’re looking for a natural way to support your digestive health. Just make sure to check with your doctor first!

I have been having a lot of digestive issues especially since the Covid-19 pandemic since anxiety seems to aggravate my knots in the stomach. After even eating a little, the food would just sit in my stomach and my stomach felt like a rock at times and I could hardly eat. I lost almost 20 pounds in about two months. It was terrible since I also had to work every day due to working in the essential business sector. I'd feel pressure in my chest as well in worse days from indigestion and felt suffocated. I thought maybe I was suffering from functional dyspepsia. I'd get bad indigestion especially after eating gluten or meats. I did the H-pylori test but came back negative. I'm set for endoscopy, colonoscopy, and celiac disease test 2 weeks later but since I started on the mastic gum a week ago, my digestion became so much better. Even gluten seems okay as long as I took Glutenease right before eating gluten food. Before taking these, I also tried taking anti-acid like pantoprazole since I have Gerd but it got worse after using it for one week so I stopped as this also happened before. I also tried Betaine HCL since some said it might be due to a lack of acid as you age. I did the baking soda acid test at home and it seemed like I had a lack of acid so I tried HCL but it didn't help at all and it seemed to aggravate my condition. I took probiotics and digestive enzymes as well but these didn't work that well before I started taking mastic gum. I took another brand mastic gum my husband used for two days before it ran out and I purchased this one but it seems like this one is working great. Usually, I hate taking medicines and supplements but this one gave me no side effects when I often have side effects like heart palps from other supplements or medicines. This capsule has a distinctive mastic gum smell which is more like herbal smell which I don't mind. I highly recommend mastic gum for any of your digestive issues especially if you suffer indigestion like me. I believe it'd be safe to take it long term. I'm so glad my husband convinced me to finally try. It works the best among all the digestive supplements I tried!

Definitely smelled fresh. Did it help with my h priori? I don’t know.I used two bottles. Bought a 3 pack. My stomach pain didn’t return (I was coming off of using biocidin).I started getting headaches so I stopped taking these. Headaches went away.I haven’t retested for h priori yet.What is helping me right now is interfase by Klaire Labs. It is a bumpy ride, but definitely helping. I might add a lower dose of the mastic as a maintenance measure in a few months. I was taking 2 pills, 2-3 times a day. Mild constant headaches at twice a day. Big headaches at 3 times. Taking a break from it for a while.

Do not know when this has started, but the product is full of filler now, barely have any mastic gum. I started with this brand a while ago, it was a more expensive brand out there, and it was good. This product used to treat H. Pylori within 3 days, twice a day and on the second day you can smell distinctive smell of mastic gum when you burp, it means that you have good mastic gum potency in the pill. Now, taking 4 a days for 2 weeks without results, I can't smell that distinctive smell when burping with double the dose I used to take. So much filler in there it actually give you bloat, I feel less bloating after stop taking it. If you has known to real mastic gum smell and color, you would know this is not it. At least dye your starch filler amber color, lol. I would guess it is 20% or less of mastic gum in the pill.This brand has been more expensive comparing to others. Difference is that before, you get what you pay for. this brand pulls the trick that many manufacturers has been doing that once they got customers, they start doing shady stuffs like this to maximize its profit. I paid $68 for two bottle of some starch in capsule, and as the time of this writing, it is $54/each for starch in capsule, that is a scam. Consumers need to kills brands that practice this kind of behavior.
