Traditional Botanical Support for a Healthy Stomach Lining
When the upper gut is unsettled, I like to start with the lining and keep the formula simple. Douglas says "Pylori-Plex … provides unique ingredients to support the stomach lining and gastrointestinal tract."*
Who I Reach For This With
- Patients whose gut plan needs a botanical for the stomach lining and upper digestive tract
- People who prefer a short, plant-based formula with no extras
- Protocols that already include gut-lining and microbial-balance support and need the upper-gut piece
- Patients who want to take it with meals as part of a daily routine
What Makes This Form Different
- 1,000 mg of mastic gum per 2 capsules, the largest single ingredient
- A 150 mg blend of deglycyrrhizinated licorice root, marshmallow root and slippery elm bark
- Douglas: mastic gum, licorice, marshmallow root and slippery elm bark "have traditional uses as gastro-protective herbs"*
What Douglas Laboratories Says It Supports*
- "Traditional support for a healthy stomach lining and intestinal tract"*
- "unique ingredients to support the stomach lining and gastrointestinal tract"*
- Mastic gum, licorice, marshmallow root and slippery elm bark: "traditional uses as gastro-protective herbs"*
How It Fits Into a Protocol
Pylori-Plex is a piece of a gut plan, not the whole plan. I pair it with RepairVite for the gut lining, GI-Synergy when microbial balance is the focus, and HCL Pro-Zyme when digestion itself needs help. Testing and your practitioner's guidance decide what goes in and in what order.
