The 4R Gastrointestinal Support Program

The GI tract protects the entire body through a series of mechanisms.

• GI pH
  • Mouth – alkaline
  • Stomach – acid
  • Small Intestine – alkaline
  • Large Intestine – mild acid
• Strong digestive and immune secretions – 80% of the immune system is in the small intestine
• Powerful mucosal barrier from mouth to anus
• “Friendly colonic micro flora” by the trillions

Disruption of regional pH balance impacts the processes of digestion, assimilation, elimination and immune function.
