For over 2,500 years, Mediterranean cultures have prized mastic gum for its remarkable digestive properties — it was used in ancient Greece and Rome as a remedy for stomach complaints, and it remains one of the most studied natural substances for gastrointestinal health today. The active compounds in mastic gum — mastic acids and masticoresin — have been shown in clinical research to support the health of the stomach lining, inhibit the growth of \u003cem\u003eHelicobacter pylori\u003c\/em\u003e (the bacteria associated with gastric ulcers and chronic gastritis), and provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant protection to the digestive tract. Mastic gum is also traditionally valued for its antimicrobial properties and its ability to support overall digestive comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho is this for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose with chronic digestive discomfort, gastritis, or stomach ulcer concerns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeople looking for natural support against \u003cem\u003eH. pylori\u003c\/em\u003e — the bacteria linked to ulcers and chronic stomach inflammation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone with heartburn, acid reflux, or indigestion that hasn’t responded well to other approaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose wanting to support and protect the stomach lining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeople interested in the traditional Mediterranean approach to digestive health\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose who prefer a standardised, guaranteed-potency herbal extract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMastic Gum Extract (\u003cem\u003ePistacia lentiscus\u003c\/em\u003e) 1,000 mg per serving — standardised to 35% total mastic acids and masticoresin (350 mg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports stomach lining health and integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInhibits \u003cem\u003eHelicobacter pylori\u003c\/em\u003e — the bacteria associated with gastric ulcers and chronic gastritis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-inflammatory support for the digestive tract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntioxidant protection for the stomach and gut lining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports relief of heartburn, indigestion, and digestive discomfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial properties — traditional use for gut health\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuaranteed potency — standardised extract, lab verified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVegan — vegetable cellulose capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e45 VegCaps — approximately 22 servings at 2 capsules daily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBy Solaray — trusted supplements since 1973\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFormula\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach serving (2 VegCaps) delivers:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMastic Gum Extract\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003ePistacia lentiscus\u003c\/em\u003e, gum): 1,000 mg — guaranteed to contain 350 mg (35%) total mastic acids and masticoresin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDietary Fibre: 1g (4% DV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSupplement facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServing size: 2 VegCaps | Approximately 22 servings per container\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOther ingredients\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaltodextrin, vegetable cellulose capsule, silica, magnesium stearate, cellulose.
