Peptiguard – formerly Super Aloe THORNE 120CT

Tired of gastrointestinal upset? Thorne’s Pepti-Guard is formulated to specifically support microbiota in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, particularly in the stomach.* The formula contains deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) and organic aloe vera for their GI-healing properties, while Berberine HCI and bismuth citrate promote a healthy microbial balance.* Pepti-Guard is best used in an 8-week protocol with two capsules, twice a day, between meals.
