Designs for Health GastroMend HP - Mastic Gum, Zinc, L-Carnosine, Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice Gut Health Supplements - May Support Gastric Health, Occasional Bloating or Upset Stomach (60 Capsules)

I have reflux/LPR and I have tried over the counter to prescription reflux meds and for me this has been one of the cornerstones in helping me beat down the reflux and get off prescription meds. This supplement takes a few of the most proven and effective supplements and puts them in one easy to take capsule. In particular, the Vitamin U Methylmethioninesulfonium ingredient, has been shown to reverse ulcers and calm stomach irritation, along with DGL and Zinc.This supplement provides 200mg of Vitamin U in the 4 capsule serving, or 50mg per capsule, an amount incredibly hard to find anywhere else. The competing product on Amazon, Gastrazyme, for example has 15mg per capsule, less than a third, and you can't take extra because it has high amounts of vitamin A which you could overdose on. There is a spray product who I contacted and they said there is only about 5mg per spritz. So if you are looking particularly for Vitamin U this is by far the best alternative.Medications try to knock out the acid producing actions of the stomach, which is hopeless as your stomach basically exists to produce acid. These ingredients act on the irritation and inflammation which is the root cause of excessive reflux (combined with a weak esophageal sphincter). This is a bit pricey but I feel like is a good value for a combined supplement that does not skimp on dosage of the expensive ingredients like vitamin U and works well.This supplement works well in combination with Gaviscon Advance (not the regular Gaviscon) which uses sodium algineate which provides a physical raft block to prevent acid from exiting the stomach (as opposed to most medications which try to neutralize acid which as I pointed out is a ridiculous thing to do in the stomach). I believe this combination of Gastromend to heal/repair the stomach combined with Gaviscon Advance to provide a physical block on the top (particularly after big meals or flareups or before you lie down) is the best available treatment for acid reflux right now and is much better than prescription H2 inhibitors or PPI's.

I have taken this product for two days and it really seems to be helping my stomach feel better. It contains the very important vitamin U that helps heal the gut lining. I am taking it along with SM Nutrition Activated Sulphoraphane Complex, Doctor's Choice PepsZinGI - a great zinc produc for the stomach, and BariMelts Iron and MultiVitamins to try to increase my absorption of key nutrients. I noticed a difference when I added in this product with the vit u. It really stinks, like it makes me gag when I open the bottle, but that is a small price to pay to heal an ulcer and hopefully increase my iron amd hemoglobin.

Issues intensity subsided 10 to 14 days, I have been very satisfied with it

I was diagnosed with gastritis seven weeks ago, and suffered with upper GI pain, pain under my left rib, under the center of my chestbone, felt uncomfortable all day, couldn't wear a bra, belched constantly. I was prescribed Zantac, and that helped, but I wanted something to heal and soothe. It felt like I had h. pylori and I didn't want to wait to get in to see my doctor.I started these about 4-5days ago. This supplement began to work within the first 30 minutes of taking it. The pain toned down a lot within an hour or two. I started with a low dose, two supplements a day, now I'm up to 3 a day. My symptoms are 80% reduced, and it feels like things are starting to heal up, but I can tell it's not going to be a quick fix. I'll continue to keep my diet very gentle and use these to support the healing process.Excellent product.

These really help when my gerd flares up.Only thing was the terrible delivery by Amazon. Even though the bottle was wrapped in bubble wrap,the cap was broken luckily the bottle did not break. Ordering direct from product distribution next time

Gastromed had previously fixed my reflux. And now I always have a bottle on hand. I recently had food poisoning, from lettuce. It was going on day 5 of stomach issues, so I started Gasteomend again. Within 2 doses, 4 total pills all my symptoms were gone and I felt myself again. I will finish the bottle to assure it’s cleared up. This is a miracle supplement. I tell everyone about it.

This is awful. I've used several supplements for stomach issues in the past, and have never had one smell so rancid. It made my kitchen smell horribly, and I couldn't risk taking it due to the smell.

I read reviews and from time to time some of the past buyers complained about the price. A product that really WORKS does not come cheap. If you think about it...paying for this product is way cheaper than going to the doctor and you got prescribed antibiotics just to find out you are allergic to it like I do. I got this yesterday and took two pills last night. I woke up without any gut issues and my energy is back.
