Product Details

Mastic gum is the gummy resin of the mastic tree – Pistacia lentiscus, a relative of the pistachio tree. The mastic tree is found almost exclusively on the Greek island of Chios, the birthplace of Hippocrates, the traditional father of medicine. Despite this strong Greek association, it is also characterized in the Aryuvedic pharmacopeia. Traditionally used in Ayurveda for Adhmana (excessive gas formation in the stomach and intestine) and for Agnimandya (dyspepsia).

In modern society, mastic gum has proven useful for fighting gastritis and heartburn as well as overall gastric and intestinal inflammation.
