Yes, GUTSKIN can be given to patients with ages 12 years old and above, as long as the patient can drink the capsule. If the patient cannot, you can de-capsulate GUTSKIN, which does not compromise the probiotic content, and combine it with a glass of water, milk or juice at room temperature (not less than 4 degrees Celsius not exceeding 30 degrees Celsius).

Almost all available probiotics in the market are non-coated and has only live probiotic or combination of prebiotic and live probiotics. GUTSKIN has a triple-advance action, the first and only combination of Prebiotics, live Probiotics and Postbiotics or Heat-Killed Probiotics in the Philippines.

GUTSKIN offers safety, stability and potency as compared with other high-priced, non-coated, live-only probiotics.

A. With reference to the guidelines of the International Probiotic Association and the International Scientific Association for probiotics and prebiotics, an ideal probiotic should be able to arrive, survive and thrive in the GI Tract.
     B. GUTSKIN Triple Coating Technology will ensure that probiotics will arrive, survive and thrive in the GI tract.
     C. GUTSKIN’s three layers: the outer capsule providing protection from exposure to environmental factors, like heat and moisture; the middle layer providing protection from gastric and bile acids, and finally the inner layer protects the live probiotics until released.

This microencapsulation technique is useful for extending the storage life of probiotics and promotes its controlled release and optimized delivery to the site of action.

In this way, the protection and high concentration of probiotic bacteria is achieved in the GI tract.

A Cochrane review found that a dosage of 5 billion colony-forming units or greater per day was significantly more effective than a lower dosage. That’s why we only recommend a maximum of 2 capsules of GUTSKIN per day or total of 22 billion CFUs.

GUTSKIN has been found to be effective for 24 months or 2 years, even without refrigeration and regardless of heat and humidity exposure.

GUTSKIN’s ingredients are imported from Korea and are manufactured and mixed in our GMP-certified manufacturing plant located in Pasig City.

GUTSKIN is not a treatment for COVID-19, but studies have shown that probiotics can help reduce the severity of inflammation (cytokine storm) and boost the immune system of patients with COVID-19.

GODEX DS

The plasma half-life of GODEX DS is 8 hours therefore it must be given three times a day or every 8 hours to maintain the desired effect of the product. Even for protection, GODEX DS must be given 1 capsule 3x a day to give an effective protection against free radicals and low energy.

GODEX DS is the ONLY hepaprotector that acts INSIDE the liver’s MITOCHONDRIA (the powerhouses of the cell) to bring in FATTY ACIDS and convert it to HIGH ENERGY, detoxify free radicals, regenerate cells, protect cell membrane integrity and maintain normal cell functions. With these actions, GODEX DS ACTS RAPIDLY to shorten the treatment of liver diseases and thus gives FAST RECOVERY of the patients. The patient therefore SAVES MONEY with Godex DS and at the same time recovers fast and can have the quality of life he deserves.

Other hepaprotectors will cost the patients more money since they act outside of the cell and therefore give longer duration of treatment. Most of the hepaprotectors are FOOD SUPPLEMENTS and not approved by the FDA to have therapeutic effects for liver diseases.

GODEX DS is approved by the FDA as treatment of cirrhosis. Although cirrhosis is irreversible, there are testimonials that GODEX DS was able to convert cirrhosis in early stages to fatty liver. GODEX DS protects the liver cells and detoxifies free radicals, regenerates liver cells for patients’ fast recovery.
Godex DS is not an anti-diabetic drug but can be a therapeutic partner for patients suffering from diabetes. Godex DS through its carnitine detoxifies the ROS and RNS thus preventing the activation of stress-activated protein kinases thus increases activation of insulin signaling pathways thus improving the insulin sensitivity of insulin resistant patients in type 2 diabetes.
Godex DS is a therapeutic partner for patients suffering from diabetes. Studies have shown that increased glucose and free fatty acids leads to increased ROS and RNS that would lead to activation of stress-activated protein kinases that would lead to decreased activation of insulin signaling pathways that will lead to insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. Godex DS through its carnitine detoxifies the ROS and RNS thus preventing the activation of stress-activated protein kinases thus increases activation of insulin signaling pathways thus improving the insulin sensitivity of insulin resistant patients in type 2 diabetes.

GODEX DS has Carnitine orotate, the orotate is a salt that increases the absorption of carnitine in the bloodstream that gives patients THERAPEUTIC DOSE of Carnitine for treatmentment/cure of liver diseases . While the drinks only have L-carnitine (no transporter) thus LOW amount of Carnitine will go to the bloodstream and have NO therapeutic effect. That is the reason that these drinks have no RX symbol in their bottles, meaning they have no approved therapeutic claims.

Carnitine in Carnitine orotate is a FAT BURNER therefore it transports excess fats into the mitochondria of the cells to be converted in high energy. With exercise and proper diet, a healthy body will be within reach.

Based on Clinical Trials, AST and ALT (Liver Enzymes) can normalize in as fast as 2 weeks with 1 capsule 3x a day!

As per FDA findings, GODEX DS virtually has NO side effects since it is easily absorbed, excreted and well-tolerated by the human body. The Global safety clinical trial result validates the SAFETY and EFFICACY of Godex DS.

As per FDA findings, GODEX DS can be given with any medications since it has no drug-drug interaction. It is actually recommended that GODEX DS be given with highly potent medications to prevent drug-induced liver injury.

The liver is the only organ in the body that can easily replace damaged cells, but if enough cells are lost, the liver may not be able to meet the needs of the body. Therefore, GODEX DS is an effective drug that will aid in the regeneration and repair of damaged liver cells. GODEX DS contains Orotic Acid, a pyrimidine base, and Adenine HCl, a purine base, to start nucleic acid synthesis that will give fast regeneration of liver cells so the patient can recover fast.

It is manufactured in Seoul, Korea by a well-known korean pharmaceutical company, and the sole distributor in the Philippines is Mergers Drugfil Corporation. It is KGMP approved therefore it has passed the standards of Korea for Sanitary, Effective machinery and SOPs.

GODEX DS is available in Mercury Drug branches and leading drugstores NATIONWIDE. It is also available in Farmacia Guerra.
