Gut Nutrients (Formerly Optimal GI) - 150 Capsules | Seeking Health
Optimal GI provides a blend of herbs and nutrients that synergistically support healthy digestion, GI barrier, and immune system function.
Your gut health sets the stage for your overall health. Ensuring healthy digestion and absorption of nutrients is also one of the most powerful things you can do for your immune function.
Optimal GI was formulated by epigenetics expert Dr. Ben Lynch. This unique formula supports digestive tract function with a powerful blend of nutrients along with soothing and strengthening herbs.
An unhealthy gut can contribute to digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and malabsorption. Moreover, many diseases of modern society are thought to be rooted in a leaky gut.
If intestinal barrier function becomes compromised, it can trigger the ongoing activation of the immune system and inflammation. With over 60% of the immune system located in the gut lining, a healthy digestive system is also critical for immune health.
Optimal GI contains traditional herbs, including marshmallow root, licorice extract (DGL), milk thistle, cat’s claw, aloe vera, turmeric, and slippery elm. It also contains targeted nutrients like N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine and MSM that support gut lining health and function.
Each serving of Optimal GI provides 500 mg of citrus pectin. This natural fiber provides bulk to support healthy bowel movements. It promotes regular detoxification by binding to toxins. This formula is gluten-free and free of GMO-markers.
Optimal GI is free from L-glutamine for those who do not tolerate it.
