A healthy GI tract has an epithelial mucosal barrier that prevents the passage of food antigens (proteins), toxins, and microorganisms from crossing into the bloodstream. Stress, overconsumption of alcohol, food intolerance, microbial imbalance and poor nutrition can affect the integrity of the epithelial barrier. The health of the GI tract is dependent on the modulation of these factors. The ingredients in GlutaShield help regenerate and maintain GI enterocytes while supporting the health of the intestinal mucosal barrier. The unique formula in GlutaShield includes nutrients that support the gut mucosal epithelium. The purpose of the epithelium is to allow the digestion and absorption of dietary nutrients while keeping unwanted toxins, microbes and food particles from passing directly into the body. GlutaShield is available in delicious chocolate and vanilla flavors. Suggested Use: Mix 1 scoop of GlutaShield with water or beverage of your choice, once daily or as recommended by your health care professional.The products described on this site, and any statements made about them, have not been reviewed by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
