Product Review
Healing of the mucosal barrier can occur when the causes of inflammation are removed and targeted nutrition is delivered. Support Mucosa is specifically formulated to accelerate repair of the mucosal barrier of the gut wall, restoring healthy form and function to damaged tissue. It reduces overall inflammation and supports the liver by preventing toxins from leaking through and damaging this organ, while soothing and restoring the intestinal lining.A principal component in the formula is the amino acid Glutamine. Glutamine's ability to heal the mucosal barrier cells and tissue is well known in nutritional science, as is its role in reducing the amount of toxins that penetrate through the barrier into the bloodstream. Glutamine is arguably the most important amino acid given its ability to rebuild tissues and strengthen immune function. Our First-LineTM Proprietary Blend is a synergistic mix of botanicals that reduces gut inflammation and assists in tissue repair. Combined with the soothing and restorative ingredients quercetin, MSM, bromelain, gamma oryzanol, and N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine, an amino acid sugar essential for tissue repair, First-LineTM acts as a cohesive healing force. It can improve mucosal barrier integrity, contributing to improved nutrient absorption and protection against foreign agents. Like each of the BioMatrix formulas, Support Mucosa's formulation is the result of decades of collective clinical experience with virtually every major line of nutrition product available and his appreciation for the subtle interactions between botanicals. And given the array of ingredients, each with diverse contributions to health, its benefits extend far beyond the primary purpose of healing and strengthening the intestinal wall.
- STRENGTHEN YOUR INTESTINAL BARRIER – The small intestine lining is a critical barrier. It’s your first-line of immune defense. It prevents harmful substances – like food antigens (gluten e.g.) and invasive organisms – from getting into your system and becoming systemic. It also allows nutrients to be absorbed and put to work to strengthen your body. The natural aging process, and numerous health conditions such as food intolerances, cause the barrier to become weak, resulting in a leaky gut.
- GI RELIEF, ILLNESS PREVENTION – When you take Leaky Gut-X, you are not only relieving symptoms, especially those associated with IBS and constipation, but you are also repairing the mucous layer of the intestinal barrier. This helps your body avoid a variety of chronic health problems that result in malabsorption and antigen penetration through the barrier.
- SIBO-FRIENDLY FORMULA – Leaky Gut-X is SIBO-friendly, while many competing brands claiming to heal the gut actually contain ingredients known to exacerbate SIBO, such as slippery elm, marshmallow, and DGL.
- BOTANICAL SYNERGY BLEND – Soothe your mucosal barrier with potent botanicals that help to balance inflammation and promote healthy mucus production. Support Mucosa includes Quercetin, Cat’s Claw Bark, Hawthorn Leaf, Milk Thistle, Eleuthero Root, Turmeric Root, and Bromelain. All these ingredients have been extensively studied for their ability to heal leaky gut.
- L-GLUTAMINE POWERED – L-Glutamine is a key amino acid important for the normal growth and maintenance of the cells in the intestine. Besides having a substantial regenerative effect on distressed mucosal barriers, it also acts as a major source of energy for proliferation and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells. This helps speed repair and regeneration of the inflamed barrier.
- GUT LINING AND MUCOSAL BARRIER SUPPORT - Formulated with 425mg L-Glutamine, 250mg N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine, and Slippery Elm Bark, nutrients and botanicals traditionally used to support the intestinal lining, mucosal integrity, and a healthy gut barrier.
