Effective and not overpriced
Before I met my husband, he had persistent digestive/stomach/acid reflux problems, including bleeding ulcers. At the time, he was treated medically and left taking Prilosec for 11 years. If he missed one day he was terribly uncomfortable. With months of effort and a great aloe vera formula (and a few other things) we got him healed and on no medication, and he was good for years. This year he had an accident, and after they gave him pain meds in the hospital, even though he quit taking them very quickly, he was back to square 1, and way worse than he was when we met, so we needed a more aggressive treatment. I had researched mastic gum pretty thoroughly, and had settled on that combined with manuka honey and continuing with the aloe. Most of the mastic gum products I found that looked to be good quality were very expensive, and we were really stretched thin, since few of our healthcare choices are covered by insurance. This one looked like it was good quality, but was much more affordable, so I decided that we'd try it first. I always go for quality supplements, but there was no point in paying more if we didn't have to. I'm very happy that we bought this product. We followed a therapeutic protocol for treating ulcers with mastic gum, and it took a little patience, but he got back to normal relatively quickly, with no prescription medications or over the counter acid products. Currently we are gradually stopping use, finishing one more bottle one dose a day, but we are very pleased and would definitely recommend this product and use it again if necessary.
