WHAT IT IS / WHAT IT DOES

G.I. Fortify by Pure Encapsulations® is a specialized gastrointestinal support powder combining dietary fiber, L-glutamine and traditionally used digestive botanicals.

The formula is designed to address several aspects of digestive wellness.

1. Supports Bowel Regularity

Psyllium husk provides soluble fiber that absorbs water and forms a gel-like consistency.

This can help increase stool bulk, improve stool consistency and support regular bowel movements.

Flaxseed contributes additional soluble and insoluble fiber.

2. Supports Intestinal Barrier Function

L-glutamine is an amino acid used by intestinal cells as an energy source.

It plays a role in maintaining normal intestinal tissue function.

The formula also contains botanicals traditionally used to soothe the gastrointestinal tract.

3. Supports Beneficial Gut Microflora

Certain dietary fibers are fermented by intestinal microorganisms.

This process produces short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate, which are involved in maintaining normal colon cell function.

4. Provides Traditional Botanical Support

G.I. Fortify contains:

• Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL)
• Aloe vera
• Slippery elm
• Marshmallow root
• Triphala

These ingredients have a history of traditional use for digestive comfort and bowel health.

5. Supports Normal Intestinal Elimination

The manufacturer describes G.I. Fortify as supporting intestinal detoxification.

More specifically, its fiber content can help support normal stool formation and bowel elimination.

There is insufficient evidence that this formula removes specific toxins from the body or enhances detoxification beyond normal physiological processes.

The supplied manufacturer information identifies the following ingredients.

Ingredient	Botanical or Nutritional Source	Primary Role
Psyllium Husk Powder	Plantago indica	Soluble fiber for bowel regularity

Aloe Vera Extract (200:1)	Aloe barbadensis inner fillet	Botanical digestive support
Slippery Elm Extract	Ulmus fulva bark	Traditional gastrointestinal soothing support

Triphala Botanical Blend

Triphala consists of three fruits:

1. Terminalia chebula
2. Terminalia bellirica
3. Phyllanthus emblica (also known as Emblica officinalis)

This traditional Ayurvedic combination has been used to support digestive function and bowel regularity.

Ingredient quantities: The supplied information does not specify the amount of each ingredient per serving. Refer to the current product label for exact quantities and serving size.

NON-MEDICINAL INGREDIENTS

The manufacturer identifies ascorbyl palmitate, derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil, among the ingredients used in the formulation.

The complete non-medicinal ingredient list was not supplied.

Always refer to the current product packaging for the complete and most up-to-date ingredient and allergen information.

PSYLLIUM HUSK – SOLUBLE FIBER FOR BOWEL REGULARITY

Psyllium is a plant-derived source of soluble dietary fiber.

When mixed with water, psyllium absorbs liquid and forms a gel-like substance.

How Psyllium Supports Digestion

• Helps increase stool bulk
• Supports softer stool consistency
• Promotes regular bowel movements
• Helps relieve occasional constipation
• Provides fermentable fiber for intestinal microorganisms

Adequate water intake is essential when using psyllium-containing supplements.

Never consume this powder dry. Psyllium can swell when exposed to liquid and may create a choking or obstruction risk if taken without sufficient water.

FLAXSEED – SOLUBLE & INSOLUBLE FIBER

Flaxseed provides a combination of dietary fibers and naturally occurring plant compounds.

Digestive Benefits

Soluble Fiber: Helps retain water and supports normal stool consistency.

Insoluble Fiber: Adds bulk to stool and supports normal intestinal transit.

Plant Lignans: Naturally occurring flaxseed compounds with antioxidant properties.

Flaxseed complements psyllium by providing additional fiber diversity.

L-GLUTAMINE – INTESTINAL CELL SUPPORT

L-glutamine is an amino acid involved in several important physiological processes.

Cells lining the gastrointestinal tract can use glutamine as a source of energy.

Role in Digestive Health

L-glutamine contributes to:

• Normal intestinal cell metabolism
• Maintenance of intestinal tissue
• Cellular repair processes
• Normal immune cell function

Glutamine requirements may increase during certain periods of physiological stress.

Although glutamine plays an important role in intestinal physiology, evidence that supplementation improves intestinal barrier function in otherwise healthy adults remains limited.

SOOTHING BOTANICAL COMPLEX

G.I. Fortify includes several herbs traditionally associated with digestive comfort.

Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice (DGL)

DGL is a specially processed licorice preparation in which much of the glycyrrhizin has been removed.

It is traditionally used to support gastrointestinal comfort.

Slippery Elm

Slippery elm bark contains mucilage-forming compounds.

It has traditionally been used to soothe irritated mucous membranes.

Marshmallow Root

Marshmallow root contains mucilage and has a history of traditional use for digestive and throat comfort.

Aloe Vera

The formula uses aloe vera inner-fillet extract.

Aloe has traditionally been used in digestive wellness preparations.

The effects and safety of aloe products depend on the plant part and processing method. Inner-fillet preparations differ from aloe latex, which contains compounds associated with laxative effects and additional safety concerns.

TRIPHALA – TRADITIONAL AYURVEDIC DIGESTIVE SUPPORT

Triphala is a traditional Ayurvedic botanical combination.

It contains three fruit extracts traditionally used to support digestive function.

Traditional Uses

• Supporting bowel regularity
• Promoting digestive comfort
• Maintaining normal intestinal function
• Supporting regular elimination

Some preliminary research has investigated Triphala’s effects on gastrointestinal function.

However, large, high-quality human studies are limited, and its clinical effectiveness for specific digestive disorders has not been firmly established.

GUT MICROFLORA & SHORT-CHAIN FATTY ACIDS

The gastrointestinal tract contains a diverse community of microorganisms collectively known as the gut microbiota.

Certain dietary fibers support beneficial microbial activity.

How Fermentable Fiber Works

1. Dietary fiber passes through the digestive tract.
2. Some fiber reaches the large intestine without being digested.
3. Intestinal microorganisms ferment portions of the fiber.
4. Fermentation produces short-chain fatty acids.
5. These compounds contribute to normal colon physiology.

Why Short-Chain Fatty Acids Matter

Short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate, help support:

• Normal colon cell metabolism
• Intestinal barrier function
• Normal intestinal physiology

Not all psyllium fiber is extensively fermented, and individual responses vary according to the gut microbiota and overall diet.
