What is leaky gut and how does GI Repair help?
Leaky gut occurs when tight junctions between gut cells become compromised, allowing toxins, bacteria, and undigested food to "leak" into your bloodstream. This triggers inflammation, food sensitivities, bloating, and fatigue. GI Repair uses L-glutamine to fuel cell repair, zinc carnosine to repair damage, MSM to strengthen tight junctions, and soothing botanicals like aloe and okra to coat and protect. This multi-phase approach heals the root causes rather than masking symptoms.
When should I take GI Repair?
Take between meals—at least one hour away from food. Mix one scoop in 8-10 ounces of water or juice, 2 times per day (mid-morning and mid-afternoon works well). This timing allows healing ingredients to coat and repair your lining without interference. If sensitive, start with once daily and gradually increase.
What makes the L-glutamine dose in GI Repair more effective?
GI Repair contains 3g of L-glutamine per serving—significantly higher than competitors who use 1-2g. At the recommended 2 servings daily, you get 6g total, aligning with clinical research showing effective gut healing at 5-15g daily. L-glutamine is the primary fuel for intestinal cells, and we formulated based on doses that actually work, not token amounts.
Can I take GI Repair if I have SIBO, IBS, or IBD?
GI Repair supports gut healing in various conditions including SIBO, IBS, and IBD. The formula repairs the intestinal lining and reduces inflammation rather than feeding problematic bacteria, making it appropriate for SIBO protocols. Many practitioners recommend it during the "repair" phase of gut healing. Always consult your healthcare provider about your specific situation.
What does GI Repair taste like?
Refreshing lemon-ginger flavor from regenerative organic lemon peel and ginger—no artificial flavors. Naturally sweetened with monk fruit extract. Light, easy to drink, and not chalky or medicinal like many gut supplements.
Can I take GI Repair with other supplements or medications?
GI Repair works well with digestive enzymes (take with meals), probiotics (take separately), and omega-3s. Take GI Repair at least 1-2 hours apart from medications or supplements to ensure absorption. If you're on prescription medications, consult your healthcare provider before starting, as healing your gut may affect medication needs over time.
