The tears of Chios
Mastic gum comes from the mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus), a shrub that grows all around the Mediterranean. On the Greek island of Chios, the bark has been scored for thousands of years, after which the resin seeps out in drops; the local name is the tears of Chios. The resin is used as chewing gum, in pastries and in liqueur.
Zinc bound to carnosine
Zinc carnosine is a complex of zinc and the dipeptide L-carnosine. Because of this bond, it dissolves more slowly than separate zinc and carnosine. Zinc contributes to the normal function of the immune system, to normal fertility and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. The dosage contains 8.5 mg zinc, 85% of the reference intake.
Berberine and bismuth
Berberine is a yellow alkaloid from the roots and bark of plants such as barberry and goldenseal. Bismuth is a metal whose citrate has long been used in stomach preparations. It can temporarily colour the stool black.
Pylori-X, mastic gum formula from BioMatrix
Pylori-X is a well-designed formula from BioMatrix with the special nutrient mastic gum. Mastic gum is a natural aromatic resin from the mastic tree. In the Mediterranean region, mastic gum has been used in food, drink and on the skin for thousands of years. Only in 1980 did researchers in the Middle East discover that mastic gum is also suitable for other physical applications. In addition, this product also contains bismuth citrate, zinc carnosine and berberine HCl. Together they form a powerful synergistic combination for the stomach and digestion.
Advantages
Four synergistic ingredients. Zinc contributes to the maintenance of good bones, has a beneficial influence on the process of cell division, contributes to normal cognitive function, plays a role in the normal building up and breaking down of carbohydrates, proteins, fats and DNA, is good for eyesight, is good for the nails, skin and the condition of the hair, contributes to a normal hormone balance, has a positive influence on the immune system, contributes to normal metabolism of vitamin A, plays a role in a normal acid-base balance, contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative damage and contributes to normal fertility and reproduction.
Resin from the mastic tree
The first ingredient of this formula is resin from the mastic tree. The mastic tree (Pistacia lentiscus) is a plant from the cashew family (Anacardiaceae). It is an evergreen shrub or small tree that contains aromatic resin and grows on dry, rocky slopes in the Mediterranean region. The resin (mastic) of the mastic tree has many uses and is used in many cultures; it contains triterpenoids.
Zinc carnosine chelate
Zinc-Carnosine is a patented complex that supports digestion. This special chelated form of the mineral zinc has effective effects directly in the stomach. The chelation of the mineral zinc with the peptide L-carnosine creates Zinc-L-Carnosine. The combination of zinc and L-carnosine ensures that the product dissolves more slowly in the stomach, resulting in longer-lasting beneficial effects. This contrasts with simple, separate combinations of zinc and L-carnosine. These are not molecularly bound, dissolve more quickly, and are therefore much less effective.
Berberine HCl and bismuth citrate
The third ingredient of this formula is berberine HCl. Berberine HCl has carefully documented properties. It is an alkaloid extracted from plant roots. It is often found in the barberry family, goldenseal and Oregon grape. It is a versatile phytonutrient with a broad range of effects. Finally, the fourth ingredient is bismuth citrate. Bismuth has a soothing effect. All ingredients work together synergistically.
