Pure Encapsulations Peptic-Care ZC - Provides patented support for reducing gastrointestinal discomfort by decreasing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Zinc carnosine has a slow dissociation rate and adheres to the stomach lining. Once dissociated, zinc and carnosine promote gastrointestinal comfort by maintaining healthy cytokine release and reducing inflammation in the gut. Inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract can result in increased gut permeability and epithelial damage, affecting villi and intestinal tight junction integrity. In turn, this can lead to microbial imbalance and gastrointestinal discomfort. The antioxidant vitamin C is also included to promote wound healing by helping to form collagen.
