Breaking Down GI + Biome Complex™

Breaking Down GI + Biome Complex™

Optimal gut function supports far more than comfortable digestion — it influences mood, immune balance, nutrient absorption and overall vitality.*

In this webinar, Dr. Kelly Price, ND, LAc, explores how GI + Biome Complex is formulated to maintain gut barrier integrity, support microbiome balance and promote healthy digestion through key clinically studied nutrients and enzymes.*

In this educational session, Dr. Price discusses:

  • The relationship between gut barrier integrity and microbiome diversity and how both affect overall digestive and immune health*

  • The role of butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, in nourishing the intestinal lining and supporting microbiome balance*

  • How zinc carnosine supports mucosal tissue and promotes gut lining resilience*

  • The benefits of lipase Thera-blend® technology in supporting fat digestion and efficient nutrient absorption*

  • How New Zealand golden kiwi extract ( Livaux®) helps promote bowel regularity and microbial balance naturally*

The Gut–Brain Connection: Why It Matters

Dr. Price highlights the growing evidence linking gut function to emotional and cognitive well-being. Through the gut–brain axis, beneficial microbes influence neurotransmitter balance — including serotonin, dopamine and GABA — which play roles in mood regulation, relaxation and cognitive clarity.*

Maintaining gut integrity and microbial diversity supports the production of short-chain fatty acids such as butyrate, which promote a balanced inflammatory response, protect the intestinal lining and support overall resilience during periods of stress.*

Key Ingredients in GI + Biome Complex

Butyricin® (Tributyrin + Prebiotic Blend)

A proprietary combination that provides targeted butyrate delivery to the small and large intestine, where it nourishes the gut lining and supports a healthy mucosal barrier.*

Butyrate serves as the primary energy source for colon cells, helping maintain intestinal barrier function, regulate motility and support microbiome diversity.*

Lipase Thera-blend®

This enzyme technology ensures optimal lipase activity across multiple pH ranges, supporting efficient fat digestion and nutrient absorption throughout the gastrointestinal tract.*

By helping release butyrate from tributyrin and preventing undigested fats from reaching the colon, it may also reduce occasional bloating and discomfort related to high-fat meals.*

PepZin GI® (Zinc Carnosine)

A clinically studied form of zinc that supports the structure and integrity of the gastrointestinal lining.*

Zinc carnosine promotes mucosal tissue resilience, helps maintain healthy tight junctions and supports the body’s natural antioxidant defenses.*

It is an excellent addition for patients whose digestive comfort and mucosal support are a clinical priority.*

Livaux® (New Zealand Golden Kiwi Extract)

Derived from New Zealand golden kiwi fruit, this ingredient supports bowel regularity, microbial balance and comfort.*

Its natural fiber matrix promotes gradual fermentation, reducing gas and bloating while supporting butyrate-producing bacteria in the colon.*
Rich in vitamin C and polyphenols, Livaux® provides additional antioxidant support for intestinal and immune health.*

Synergistic Support for Digestive Function

Together, the ingredients in GI + Biome Complex address multiple aspects of gastrointestinal health:*

  • Energy and integrity: Butyrate nourishes intestinal cells and supports tight junction structure*
  • Barrier resilience: Zinc carnosine and butyrate work together to maintain the mucosal layer*
  • Digestive efficiency: Lipase Thera-blend® enhances fat breakdown for improved nutrient absorption*
  • Microbiome modulation: Livaux® provides fermentable fiber to support beneficial bacterial populations*

This multifactorial approach helps practitioners support gut balance, comfort and microbiome diversity in a single daily formula.*

Clinical Application

For general digestive and microbiome support, two capsules daily are recommended, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.

Because the product contains zinc carnosine, practitioners should consider individual zinc intake when adjusting dosage levels.*

This flexible formula can be incorporated into protocols for clients needing support with gut barrier function, postbiotic balance and digestive resilience.*
