Mastic Gum 1000 mg by Jarrow Formulas – Gastric Health Mastic Gum Capsules
Mastic Gum 1000 mg capsules by Jarrow Formulas provide mastic tree resin in a vegan capsule for adults seeking gastric health support. Each two-capsule serving supplies 1000 mg of mastic gum, keeping the formula focused on one botanical rather than a combination of digestive ingredients.
Also called mastiha, this aromatic resin comes from Pistacia lentiscus, a shrub-like tree grown mainly in Greece and Turkey. Resin is the material released by the tree; it is different from a leaf preparation or an isolated essential oil. This product puts that traditional botanical ingredient into capsules rather than a chewable gum.
Key Mastic Gum 1000 mg Benefits
- Supports stomach and duodenal health, with a focus on the upper digestive tract rather than broad claims about every aspect of digestion.
- Provides a traditional botanical option for gastrointestinal wellness, centered on the mastic resin used for centuries.
- Supports the health of gastric and duodenal cells and tissues as part of a focused digestive wellness routine.
How Mastic Gum 1000 mg Works
The stomach and the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine, are connected stages of digestion. Jarrow Formulas positions this resin-based supplement to support the cells and tissues in those areas. Its focus is upper digestive wellness; it is not a probiotic providing live microorganisms or a digestive enzyme blend.
Mastic resin contains naturally occurring aromatic constituents, including essential oils. The whole resin, rather than a separately listed oil, is the functional ingredient here. The label reports a total mastic gum amount, not individual amounts of its natural constituents, so comparisons should be based on the declared resin serving.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Mastic Gum: A traditional botanical for digestive support, supplied as the tree's aromatic resin. Its naturally occurring constituents form a resin-based ingredient rather than a single isolated compound. This formula focuses that traditional use on stomach and duodenal wellness without adding other functional botanicals.
Mastic Gum 1000 mg Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking a vegan digestive supplement focused on mastic resin.
- People comparing a single-botanical capsule with multi-ingredient digestive formulas.
- Adults who prefer the label's once-daily, before-breakfast routine.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mastic Gum 1000 mg
What are the benefits of Mastic Gum 1000 mg?
Mastic Gum 1000 mg is a focused botanical supplement for stomach and duodenal wellness. Jarrow Formulas supplies 1000 mg of mastic tree resin per two-capsule serving, rather than combining it with enzymes or probiotic organisms. The duodenum is the first part of the small intestine, immediately after the stomach. Choose this formula when you want mastic resin specifically, not when you are looking for a broad digestive blend with several active ingredients.
Who should take Mastic Gum 1000 mg?
This formula is intended for adults seeking mastic resin in vegan capsules. The suggested use is two capsules once daily with water or juice before breakfast, or as directed by a qualified healthcare professional. The label calls for professional advice before use by anyone pregnant, nursing, under 18, taking medication, or living with a medical condition. Mastic use during pregnancy or nursing is not recommended because safety has not been established. Avoid it if you have a known allergy to mastic resin.
Are there any side effects of taking Mastic Gum 1000 mg?
Warning: Consult a healthcare professional before using this product if you are pregnant, nursing, under the age of 18, are taking medication or have a medical condition; if adverse reactions occur, discontinue use. Keep out of the reach of children. Do not use if safety seal is damaged or missing. Avoid mastic resin if you have a known allergy to it. Pregnancy and nursing safety has not been established, so use is not recommended. Seek medical advice for persistent or worsening digestive symptoms.
How does Mastic Gum 1000 mg support overall health?
Its role is specific: supporting upper digestive wellness rather than supplying essential vitamins, minerals, or a complete nutritional foundation. Mastic is the aromatic resin of Pistacia lentiscus, and this formula keeps that resin as its single functional ingredient. Each two-capsule serving delivers the label's 1000 mg amount. Pair a digestive supplement with appropriate meals and individualized healthcare guidance; ongoing digestive concerns need professional assessment rather than simply adding more mastic to your routine.
