GI Support Powder
GI Herbal Formula
Plant-based Digestive Enzymes
Probiotic Powder
For what to eat, follow the Healthy Living Eating Plan, and Recipes to fortify and nourish yourself with fresh wholesome foods. Avoid eating processed and packaged foods.
GI Support
Improves lower GI health by strengthening the stomach lining and regenerating weakened GI tracts. Providing targeted nutrients such as L-Glutamine, DGL, NAC, Citrus Pectin, Aloe Vera, Slippery Elm and more, this neutral tasting powder delivers targeted nutrients for better digestive health in one easy to use formula. Mixes well with beverages and other supplements.
GI Herbal Formula
A botanical blend to beat back bad belly bacteria - important because this is often a root cause of compromised GI function. Establishing a healthier balance of gut microflora creates a stronghold for good digestion, improved overall gastric function and in the long run, vigorous immunity.
Plant-based Digestive Enzymes
Digestive Enzymes break down protein, carbohydrates and fats, assisting with gas and bloating caused by the body’s inability to process certain foods such as gluten or the sugars in dairy. Undigested food that has fermented in the GI tract over time is another common culprit. This 100% vegan blend provides the most beneficial enzymes to help your body break down food.
Probiotic Powder
The Probiotic powder provides 5 of the most stable and viable “good bacteria” that are critical for healthier digestion, improved gastro function in general, stronger immunity, optimal vitamin absorption and better overall health.
