The Basics:
Occasional heartburn and acid discomfort after a meal are often symptoms of impaired digestion as a result of factors including lifestyle and diet.

Acid Soothe contains enzymes, papaya leaf, and other botanicals to support optimal digestion and ease symptoms associated with occasional gastrointestinal (GI) distress. Zinc Carnosine is included to help strengthen the mucosal lining of the stomach, acting as a buffer to gastric acid.

Thera-blend is an exclusive process that combines multiple strains of enzymes that work in specific pH levels, resulting in superior performance in the body.

The Science:
The American College of Gastroenterology estimates that 60 million Americans experience a burning sensation in the chest or an acid taste in their throats at least once a month.1 Occasional heartburn and acid discomfort after a meal are often symptoms of impaired digestion due to lifestyle, overall health, and poor dietary choices.

Enzymes in the digestive system play a vital role in overall health. They ensure proper breakdown, absorption, and utilization of nutrients from food. A deficiency in the natural production of digestive enzymes may be an underlying cause of gastrointestinal complaints, including occasional heartburn and acid discomfort.

Acid Soothe contains enzymes, papaya leaf, and other botanicals to support optimal digestion and ease symptoms associated with occasional Gastrointestinal (GI) distress.

Zinc carnosine is included to optimize the mucosal lining of the stomach, acting as a buffer to gastric acid. Each capsule of Acid Soothe provides 10 mg of zinc carnosine. According to a recent clinical trial, researchers reported beneficial effects of zinc carnosine on gut integrity and repair with standard dosages of 37.5 mg daily.2

Amylase, lipase, and cellulase enzymes work to enhance carbohydrate, fat, and plant cell wall digestion.

Marshmallow Root is known for its ability to relieve irritation of the mucous membranes in the gastrointestinal tract and to help normalize mucous secretions.3

Papaya leaf naturally contains papain, a proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzyme, and has been studied for its soothing benefits and cleansing activity within the GI tract. It has a history of supporting the body’s natural digestive processes.4

Botanical ingredients such as Prickly Ash Bark and Gotu Kola provide additional support for the intestines. Prickly Ash Bark is known for aiding tissue during gastrointestinal distress, and Gotu Kola is uncommonly rich in B vitamins and potassium and is used as a natural diuretic.

Acid Soothe contains Thera-blend enzymes. Thera-blend is an exclusive process that combines multiple strains of enzymes that work in specific pH levels, resulting in superior performance in the body.
