Natural EsophaGuard
Constant regurgitation of harsh stomach acids, bile, and food from the stomach into the esophagus can damage the delicate lining of the eso-phagus and increase the risk of problems of the upper digestive tract (23-28).
Natural EsophaGuard is a novel, all-natural solution for gastric distress. Its active ingredient, a standardized extract from orange peel known as d-limonene, has been shown to provide fast-acting, long-lasting relief from gastric distress. D-limonene is thought to coat the esophagus and guard against caustic stomach acid, while helping to reduce the amount of gastric juices regurgitated into the esophagus (29).
In one study, 89% of participants reported resolution of gastric distress after taking one 1000-milligram gelcap of orange peel extract every other day (30). In a controlled, double-blind second phase of this study, 83% reported significant relief after two weeks of using orange peel extract. No adverse effects were reported, and some participants reported relief lasting up to six months (30).
Natural EsophaGuard does not contain potentially harmful compounds such as aluminum, nor does it impair the body's absorption of critical nutrients such as calcium or shut down production of stomach acids needed for normal, healthy digestion.
