Anti-Gas Formula (with Lobelia) - formerly AG-X

The stresses of modern-day living can easily unbalance the delicate digestive system, bringing unpleasant side-effects. Two such effects are excessive gas and bloating. One of the causes is swallowing air with a hurried meal, since eating while under emotional tension tends to "lock up" the whole digestive mechanism, and the food may begin to spoil in an environment in which millions of bacteria can multiply out of control. people, especially as they age, make less and less, especially if they are using antacids. A prime suspect in stomach ulcers is a stomach-invading bacteria. Attacking the bacteria gets to the root of the problem. Acid reflux is a common health problem with stress at its roots. If one chooses not to deal with the stress they will need digestive support with formulas for acid reflux.

Anti-Gas Formula is designed as a safe food to encourage good digestion, rather than being a drug. The formula is not designed to address everyone's stomach problems, including ulcers. Nevertheless, it is made of certain herbs that have been found to assist the body in stabilizing a digestive system with minor upsets and flatulence.
