Clinical Benefits: Metagenics Gastro Aid

Multiple clinical trials have shown ingredients in Gastro Aid to be effective in the treatment of upper gastrointestinal symptoms such as indigestion and reflux:^1,2,3 GutGard® Liquorice has been shown to significantly improve symptoms of non-specific dyspepsia.^1,4 A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study on 50 subjects with non-specific dyspepsia showed that, compared to placebo, patients experienced an average of 66% improvement in their Nepean index scores after taking 2.1 g of GutGard® Liquorice twice daily for 30 days.¹

Another multi centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study on 106 subjects with non-specific dyspepsia showed 86% of participants experienced improvement in their symptoms after taking 500 mg of turmeric twice a day for seven days.³ Typical symptoms of non-specific dyspepsia includes upper abdominal pain, indigestion, belching, bloating, acid regurgitation (reflux) and heartburn.¹

Demulcent activity to soothe mucus membranes:² Liquorice has been traditionally used for its demulcent activity in Western herbal medicine.² Liquorice may help to heal damaged gut mucosa by increasing local concentrations of prostaglandins that promote mucus production and cell proliferation in the stomach.⁴

Aid digestive function:⁷ Multiple ingredients in Gastro Aid support digestion, including improving gastric motility and bile production.^5,6,7 Turmeric has been shown in in vitro and in vivo trials, to suppress gastric acid production and reduce gastric acid-induced damage via the inhibition of histamine 2 receptors.⁸ Fennel exerts its action by supporting gastric motility and globe artichoke supports bile acid production.^5,7
