ZCG 500 provides a natural approach in helping to maintain the health and integrity of the gastrointestinal lining.Environmental toxins, chronic use ofmedications and alcohol, excessive stress, and certain pathogens can be particularly damaging to this delicatelining. These factors can increase free radical activity and activate inflammatory processes that can compromisethe intestinal barrier and set the stage for altered absorptive pathways, impaired immune function, increasedallergic sensitivity, infection, and gastrointestinal disorders. By helping strengthen and repair gastric (stomach)and intestinal tissues and enhancing their resistance to injury, this product can help restore and maintain healthygastrointestinal structure and function.Zinc L-carnosine complex: This unique, patented compound combines the essential mineral zinc withL-carnosine, a potent antioxidant and tissue-protecting activity. Zinc L-carnosine can help enable the gastric and intestinal mucosa to better heal and support itself against free radical damage that may occur from environmental toxins.  It also helps protect sensitive gastrointestinal tissue from irritation and inflammation that can adversely affect tissue health and intestinalcomfort. Zinc L-carnosine can further protect the stomach and intestines from injury by promoting healthymucus secretions that lubricate the passage of food and defend against the erosive effects of natural stomachacids.L-Glutamine : L-glutamine is essential for the normal function of intestinal immune cellsand increases the secretion of protective bowel immune gamma globulins (IgA). It also decreases intestinalpermeability ("leakiness") and has been shown to limit mucosal barrier damage by inhibiting production ofinflammation promoting compounds. Supplementation with L-glutamine can helpensure adequate intake to meet the increased demands of the body and provide support and protection forthe intestinal lining.
