FDgard Gut Health Supplement, Indigestion, Nausea & Bloating, Upset Stomach, 12 Capsules

This stuff really works. It calms my bloating and pain pretty fast. I don’t have to take it daily, just as needed which is nice because it’s pricey. My GI doc recommended it over prescription pills and I’m thankful.

My son has stomach issues and this was recommended by our pediatrician. It was very helpful with cramping and digestion after meals! It seems a little pricey but so far it has been the only thing that has worked.

Works very well and fast. Very dopthing. Caraway and menthol beads in the capsules. No medication or chemicals in it. You get a cooling feeling in your esophagus when you take it with water. Great product.

I started having a LOT of burping and nausea in the evenings after I had an endoscopy a few months ago. I already have acid reflux that’s being managed by other meds but does nothing for these new symptoms, so my gastroenterologist recommended this to help. It works pretty good but I only take two pills 30 minutes before dinner because there’s absolutely no way to afford this medication if I were to take it morning and night like it instructs you to. I will sometimes skip taking it for a while until my symptoms come back just because of how expensive it is. That shows me that it works pretty good but they need to either get this covered by insurance or seriously reduce the cost because it’s unsustainable for most people. This package would only last NINE days if you take it twice a day as the “usual adult dosage”.

With problems after gallbladder surgery, this is the only thing that keeps the gas away. It was recommended to me by my gastro doctor. And it's all natural.

Helps right away with my bloating and my gastritis.

My gastroenterologist gave me a few samples of these to help with my constant bloating. I figured they’d just be another product I use that gives me false hope and isn’t effective. In hindsight, I’m so glad I was wrong. Within 20-30 minutes of taking these, I can honestly say my bloating is reduced significantly and I feel so much better. I can’t speak on the actual action of mechanism, but lemme tell you. They do work. I somehow am always waking up bloated and uncomfortable. I take one of these after brushing my teeth and the bloating/pressure is gone. I feel ready to go to work. As someone who suffers from GERD, I’m grateful these do not contain peppermint like other variations. Peppermint is known to trigger reflux and because of that, I stay away. But these? They’re great.

I tried FDgard due to symptoms and diagnosis of ulcer-like Functional Dyspepsia (FD). I began with 1 capsule of FDGard, then increased the dose to 1 capsule morning, afternoon, then evening. I hadn't noticed any improvement in my symptoms of FD, so I increased the dose to the recommended dose of 2 capsules in the AM and 2 capsules in the PM---each time taking FDgard 30 - 60 minutes before eating. During the night, at about 2:30 AM, I woke up and ... noticed my pajama bottoms were damp as well as the bedding. Strange. When I stood up, I felt off balance, drugged, and failed coordination; I had to sit down immediately. The next morning I researched I-menthol, one of the active ingredients in FDgard (along with ginger and peppermint). I realized in the morning that the FDgard at the recommended dose caused me to wet the bed!!! And in retrospect I realized that taken 3 times per day was the reason I felt tired/sleepy for the three days I was on FDgard 3 times per day. Menthol acts on the k-opioid receptors in the brain affecting consciousness (!!!), and menthol poisoning can result in lack of coordination, dizziness, and muscle weakness among other symptoms of menthol poisoning. While I suppose my reaction to the I-menthol in FDgard is rare, FDgard has not been on the market for decades, clinical research provides a lot of information but not as much information as public use of a product over several years or decades. Before using FDGard, I advise looking up menthol and menthol poisoning so that you have an idea of how it might also possibly affect you. Otherwise FDgard did little to nothing to help me with my FD symptoms. Note: I am a molecular biologist with nearly 4 decades of biomedical research experience. If you phone FDgard about menthol and they tell you FDgard is all natural, that is not quite true nor is it particularly an indication of safety; after all opium from poppies is all natural, bee stings are all natural (and some are allergic to stings), poison oak is all natural, etc. Hope this information helps.
