Stomach Comfort
How it Works
This formula provides natural ingredients to help nutritionally support digestion in times of occasional stomach upset. Stomach Comfort contains calcium carbonate, which is alkaline in nature and helps buffer acid. Alginic acid, which is converted to sodium alginate, helps maintain the mucus lining of the esophagus. Slippery elm bark coats and soothes the digestive tract while ginger root, papaya fruit and licorice root work synergistically to aid proper digestion. Licorice root has also long been used to support healthy stomach function.
Why Stomach Comfort?
Don’t just fight excess acid, actually soothe your stomach with Stomach Comfort. In addition to neutralizing calcium, Stomach Comfort features soothing algin and slippery elm, plus papaya and ginger to support digestion. This formula has been popular for more than 20 years! Algin is a carbohydrate material extracted from brown seaweed. Our algin supplier provides organic, vegan algin material that is both Kosher and Halal certified. It’s also tested for heavy metals like arsenic and lead. Because your stomach deserves the best!
The story behind Stomach Comfort
In 1928, American pharmacist Jim Howe concocted edible calcium drops to help his wife with indigestion. Calcium helps neutralize acid, and too much acid in the stomach typically leads to discomfort. Nature’s Sunshine introduced Stomach Comfort in 1998 as a more natural alternative. It has been soothing stomachs all over America ever since. Papaya fruit is native to Mexico but now grows in the Caribbean and Florida. Its natural enzymes help break down meats and other proteins. Slippery elm bark was used topically by Native Americans for a variety of benefits. Ginger has been used as both food and medicine in Asia for thousands of years. Traditionally, ginger helped with a laundry list of complaints, including cold, fever, joint discomfort, aches, cramps, nervous system support, oral health, circulatory health, plus indigestion, gas, nausea and vomiting.
Recommended use
Chew 1 or 2 tablets up to three times daily for quick, temporary stomach relief. Remember that digestive problems may be a sign of more serious health concerns.
