Jarrow Formulas Mastic Gum 1000 mg, Dietary Supplement for Gastrointestinal Health Support, 60 Veggie Capsules, 30 Day Supply

Worked great for H. Pylori
I purchased this to treat an H. Pylori infection. My symptoms were “EXCESSIVE” (I cannot emphasize that word enough) burping, searing pain in the upper abdomen, nausea, sinus problems (never before had in my life) and an overall feeling of being VERY unwell. Acid reflux was NOT a symptom for me although I know it is for many. After someone suggested I might have H. Pylori, I began doing research. I was not able to be tested for the bacteria because I had just come off of a round of antibiotics (first time in 18 years) for a horrible sinus infection (first one ever). The test would have thrown a false negative because of the antibiotics, you’re supposed to wait a month after taking them. Since there was no way in H*** I was going the conventional route for the H. Pylori treatment I decided to go ahead and start the Mastic Gum. There was also no way in H*** I was going to wait a month to be tested before doing anything, with the symptoms already being as bad as they were. I went with my instinct and started my own protocol. Within 3 days the searing pain in my upper abdomen was completely gone and I was beginning to feel better. Over the course of the next three weeks I continued to improve and at this time all symptoms are gone. I am continuing with my protocol for a while longer because I’m not taking any chances on not getting it all. After doing the research, this is what I did with the Mastic Gum. Week 1 – 1000 mg. divided into two dosages on an empty stomach, Week 2 – 2000 mg. divided into two dosages on an empty stomach, Week 3 – 3000 mg. divided into three dosages, morning, afternoon and evening, on an empty stomach. In addition to the Mastic gum I also took NAC (N-Acetyl L-Cysteine) because a friend discovered the following article…Gastritis, Ulcers, Cancer, and Helicobacter pyloriHelicobacter pylori is a bacterium that colonizes various regions of the stomach and upper part of the small intestine. H. pylori infection produces major oxidative stress on tissues already vulnerable to extremes of pH and other chemical challenges, and the resulting inflammation produces pain and promotes development of gastric and esophageal cancers.19 NAC is an obvious candidate for fighting H. pylori infections, both because of its powerful ability to interfere with the oxidant-inflammation connection, and also because of its potential to break down some of the gastric mucous layer beneath which the organism hides.72NAC fights H. pylori in at least two ways. It markedly inhibits growth of H. pylori both in culture dishes and in live mice, helping to reduce the total load of organisms present.72 But NAC also powerfully regulates gene expression in stomach lining cells, reducing hydrogen peroxide production induced by H. pylori, and decreasing activation of NF-kB and subsequent release of inflammatory cytokines.19,73 In human trials NAC improves eradication rates of H. pylori produced by standard treatment with antacids and antibiotics, when given at doses of 1,200 mg per day.74,75People who have gastritis or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may be infected with H. pylori and may benefit from supplementation with 1,200 mg per day of NAC, especially during co-treatment with drugs to eradicate the organism.I’m also drinking Matula Tea which is an herbal blend proven to eradicate H. Pylori as well as other parasites one might have. It’s very expensive but comes with a money back guarantee (you do have to get tested after you finish the treatment) if you still test positive for the bacteria. It’s very mild, tastes like a green tea. I just started the tea two days ago, you drink the tea twice daily for 30 days. This may be overkill, but as badly as I’ve felt for the past several weeks, I’m taking NO chances! This is what I’ve done and has worked great for me, I’ve completely followed my instincts through all my choices here. Best of health to ALL!
