Detailed Benefits of Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI

• Supporting daily gastric comfort

Gastric comfort is essential for general well-being, sleep quality and the ability to enjoy meals without discomfort. Diet rich in fats, spices, irregular meals or stress can affect stomach sensitivity.

Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI is designed to:
• support natural balance of gastric environment
• support a sensation of comfort after meals
• contribute to reducing "burning" or pressure sensations associated with gastric sensitivity.

By associating soothing ingredients with PepZin GI™, the product:
✅ supports normal functioning of gastric mucosa
✅ favors a balanced response to potentially irritating foods
✅ can be useful in periods when the stomach is more sensitive.

• Gastric mucosal protection with zinc-L-carnosine complex (PepZin GI™)

PepZin GI™ is a patented complex of zinc and L-carnosine, known for its affinity for gastric mucosa. Zinc is an essential mineral involved in numerous cellular regeneration processes and in maintaining tissue integrity.

In the Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI formula, the 5 mg of zinc (from 37.5 mg PepZin GI™) can contribute to:
• supporting natural repair processes at gastric mucosal level
• maintaining cellular integrity and stomach protective barrier
• protecting tissues against oxidative stress.

The role of L-carnosine in the zinc-L-carnosine complex can intensify its affinity for gastric mucosa, helping the active ingredient act locally, where needed. Thus, PepZin GI™:
✅ contributes to maintaining healthy gastric mucosa
✅ supports natural regeneration and repair processes
✅ helps create an additional internal protection barrier.

• Role of mastic gum in maintaining gastric level balance

Mastic gum (50 mg per serving), obtained from Pistacia lentiscus tree sap, is traditionally known for supporting stomach health and digestive balance.

Mastic gum can:
• contribute to maintaining stomach level comfort
• support microbial balance in upper digestive tract
• help protect mucosa by forming a gentle film.

By association with PepZin GI™, mastic gum:
✅ complements gastric mucosal protection action
✅ supports digestive tolerance to certain foods
✅ helps maintain a sensation of comfort after meals.

• Aloe Vera – soothing and hydration of digestive mucosa

Organic aloe vera extract (50 mg, 200:1 ratio) from inner leaf is known for its soothing effect on mucous membranes.

In the upper digestive tract, aloe vera can:
• support hydration and gastric mucosal integrity
• contribute to soothing irritation sensations
• support natural tissue regeneration processes.

In the Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI formula:
✅ aloe vera works together with zinc-L-carnosine to maintain mucosal health
✅ helps "soothe" the gastric area in periods of sensitivity
✅ supports a more comfortable and balanced internal environment.

• Slippery elm – protective film for esophagus and stomach

Slippery elm (Ulmus rubra), present in 100 mg dose, is known for its mucilage content, substances that, in contact with liquids, form a viscous gel that can cover and protect mucous membranes.

At digestive level, slippery elm can:
• form a protective film on esophageal and gastric mucosa
• contribute to reducing irritation sensation
• support comfort in case of sensitivity to certain foods or drinks.

Thus, in combination with aloe vera and PepZin GI™:
✅ slippery elm enhances the "lining" and internal protection effect
✅ helps maintain a sensation of comfort when swallowing and after meals
✅ naturally supports soothing of the throat-stomach area.

• Support for digestion and tolerance to irritating foods

Copious meals, spicy, acidic or fat-rich foods can put pressure on the stomach. Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI was designed to support the body in adapting to such food challenges.

Through the synergistic action of its ingredients, the product can:
• support more comfortable digestion
• help reduce unpleasant sensations associated with gastric sensitivity
• contribute to better tolerance to certain food categories.

✅ The zinc-L-carnosine complex protects mucosa
✅ mastic gum and slippery elm support digestive barrier
✅ aloe vera contributes to soothing and mucosal hydration.

• Supporting natural mucosal level regeneration processes

Gastric mucosa is exposed daily to gastric acid and various substances from diet. The body has mechanisms for continuous gastric cell regeneration, and certain nutrients can support these processes.

Zinc, present in Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI, plays an important role in:
• protein synthesis and cellular regeneration
• maintaining tissue integrity
• supporting adequate antioxidant response.

In the context of this formula, zinc is provided as zinc-L-carnosine PepZin GI™, which:
✅ has increased affinity for gastric mucosa
✅ supports natural mucosal cell repair
✅ contributes to maintaining a healthy digestive barrier.

• Global support for digestive comfort in modern lifestyle

Stress, disordered diet, coffee consumption, spices or late meals can affect stomach sensitivity. Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI, NOW Foods, offers a complex and gentle approach to digestive comfort:

✅ PepZin GI™ – protection and support for gastric mucosa
✅ Mastic gum – balance and gastric level comfort
✅ Aloe vera – soothing and mucosal hydration
✅ Slippery elm – natural protective film for esophagus and stomach.

By combining these ingredients, Gastro Comfort with PepZin GI addresses people who want upper digestive comfort support, gastric mucosal protection and better adaptation to food and lifestyle challenges of each day.
