Featuring a unique blend of alginic acid and potassium bicarbonate, it forms a temporary foam barrier that shields the esophageal lining from stomach acid. This gluten-free, non-GMO, vegetarian-friendly formula is enhanced with calcium, magnesium, and natural berry extracts, delivering effective digestive support in a convenient, tasty chewable tablet. ## Description Esophageal Guardian is a digestive health supplement specifically formulated to support the delicate tissues in your esophagus and provide protection against gastric distress. During digestion, the stomach releases harsh acids that impact esophageal tissue. We’ve combatted this with the combination of alginic acid and potassium (as potassium bicarbonate). When these compounds come into contact with stomach acid, the alginic acid forms a gel while the potassium bicarbonate forms bubbles—creating a foam raft-like barrier that sits on top of your stomach and promotes gastric comfort. We also added calcium and magnesium (in their carbonate form) to further encourage esophageal comfort. Finally, pomegranate and strawberry extracts round out the gastro-protective benefits of this supplement. Esophageal Guardian is non-GMO, gluten free, vegetarian and comes in convenient berry-flavored chewable tablets.

The warnings required in California were updated by new implementing regulations that became effective in late 2018. The Act mandates that a daily serving of a dietary supplement must not exceed 0.5 micrograms (mcg) of lead (Pb). If the Pb content of a dietary supplement exceeds this threshold, California Proposition 65 requires that the product must bear a warning on its label stating that “Consuming this product can expose you to Lead, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/food.” Alternatively, the regulations allow a short form warning that states, “Reproductive Harm – www.P65Warnings.ca.gov”. However, it is important to keep in mind that ALL naturally occurring ingredients (i.e., botanical extracts and minerals) contain naturally occurring lead. If there are any botanical extracts or minerals in supplements, there may be miniscule amounts of lead in them. California’s requirements for dietary supplements are far below the rigid standards set by other scientific organizations. For example, the lead level that the Joint FAO/ WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives determined to be a safe daily intake (3.5 mcg/kg/day) for an average-sized human is 245mcg. In fact, at this level of daily intake, blood Pb levels do not rise appreciably. Thus, a prestigious scientific organization is using a cutoff of lead per day of 245mcg but the State of California is using 0.5mcg, a difference of 490-fold. Consider that in order to ingest an unsafe daily level of Pb, as documented by global scientific regulatory authorities, a 70 kg man would need to consume nearly 500 servings of a dietary supplement containing 0.5 mcg of Pb per serving. Many foods also contain levels of lead that exceed the Proposition 65 threshold. To put things into perspective: A single serving (one cup or 230 grams) of grapefruit contains approximately 5.98 mcg of lead, which exceeds the Proposition 65 limit by nearly 12 times. One cup of cooked rice (one serving or 46.25 grams raw rice) contains about 2.17 mcg of Pb, more than 3-fold higher than the Proposition 65 threshold. A 90-gram serving of shrimp (about 5 large shrimp) can contain as much as 18.9 mcg of Pb, or 37-times greater than the Proposition 65 limit. Following this logic, one serving of grapefruit, rice, or shrimp, according to Proposition 65, “contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.” Life Extension strongly supports rigid quality standards in dietary supplements. It also applauds California for making an extra effort to protect its residents.

We greatly appreciate your feedback and it has been forwarded to our Product Development team for future consideration. The inclusion of xylitol, mannitol and stevia allow for the sweetening of the chewable tablets to enhance the flavor profile while limiting the carbohydrate and sugar content of this product. Sugar alcohols are generally well-tolerated in most individuals, however, since all of our biochemistries are unique it can affect how we respond to different nutrients. **Q: Instructions say to chew and then follow up immediately with 4oz to 8oz of water. Is this what others have are doing? How much water is too much?** A: I’ve never used any water. I thought the purpose was to form “a raft” so the acid wouldn’t come up. I’ve been chewing one pill before bed with no water for over a year with no problem. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ helps with the hurtburn *by T***. on 16 September 2025* Good product ### ⭐⭐ Didn't work for me *by A***A on 10 March 2024* Please think before you buy it doesn't work if you severe case ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by N***Y on 1 March 2026* This product is a real game changer for me. It not only works well, but its effect is immediate. I found however, that chewing the lozenges isn’t really bearable without water in one’s mouth. The lozenges have a bitter, semi-sweet, acidic taste that is only relieved by placing them in your mouth, filling your mouth with several ounces of water, and then chewing. The alternative to doing this is to simply crush the two tablets into powder, add the powder to a glass of water, and drink. To that end, perhaps the company may wish to consider offering this in powder packets. Aside from that, this formula is very effective and supports a good night’s sleep without dealing with reflux. ## Frequently Bought Together - Life Extension Esophageal Guardian, alginic Acid, Potassium Bicarbonate, get Long-Lasting Relief from gastric Distress, Vegetarian, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, 60 Vegetarian chewable Tablets - REFLUX GOURMET Natural Heartburn Acid Reflux Relief Support Supplement for GERD, LPR, Indigestion, Aid for Intermittent Fasting, Alginate Therapy, Made in The USA, Vanilla Caramel - Reflux Gourmet Berry Soothe Gum Alginate Therapy Sodium Bicarbonate Gum for Acid Reflux, Oral, Cognitive, and Digestive Support, Natural with Ginger, Celeriac and Aloe, Sugar Free, Gluten Free, Vegan --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/256380681-life-extension-esophageal-guardian-gastric-discomfort-supplements-up-to-4](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/256380681-life-extension-esophageal-guardian-gastric-discomfort-supplements-up-to-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
