The Science Behind HEALIA: A Gut Healing Revolution

Stress, processed food and painkillers all damage the intestinal lining. HEALIA was formulated to fix that. It’s a gut-repair formula rooted in science and delivering potent enough dosing to make a real difference, fast.

What Makes HEALIA Different?

Most gut supplements rely on low-dose, underpowered ingredients. HEALIA is different. Every scoop is packed with clinically-supported doses of:

• Bovine colostrum

• Hydrolyzed collagen peptides (Type I & III)

• Glycine

• Zinc carnosine

These ingredients don’t just “support” gut health — they actively repair, protect, and rebuild your intestinal lining.

1. Colostrum: Nature’s Gut Defender

Bovine colostrum is the first milk produced by cows after giving birth — rich in growth factors and immune proteins that help seal the gut lining, neutralize pathogens, and promote regeneration.

✅ Key Effects:

• Reduces gut permeability (“leaky gut”) by tightening tight junctions and lowering intestinal inflammation [1]

• Heals gut lining damaged by NSAIDs, exercise, or illness [1][2]

• Protects against bacterial infections and toxins via immunoglobulins and lactoferrin [3]

HEALIA includes colostrum at therapeutic doses used in research (10–20g/day) — unlike typical supplements that barely scratch the surface.

2. Collagen: Rebuilding from the Inside Out

Collagen is the main structural protein in your gut lining. Type I & III collagen (the kind we use) form up to 88% of intestinal collagen, providing the scaffolding for tissue regeneration.

✅ Clinically Proven Benefits:

• Improves symptoms in people with gut discomfort (IBS, bloating)

• Accelerates healing of intestinal tissue through fibroblast stimulation and collagen matrix rebuilding [internal formulation reference]

We use hydrolyzed collagen peptides — broken down into low-weight molecules (~2,000 Dalton) for maximum absorption and effect.

3. Zinc Carnosine: The Gut’s Bodyguard

Zinc carnosine is a compound used in Japan for over 20 years to treat ulcers and intestinal injury. It works by:

• Coating and protecting the stomach and gut lining

• Reducing inflammation at the epithelial level

• Stimulating mucosal healing and cell regeneration [4]

Combined with colostrum, it has shown synergistic benefits in protecting against gut barrier damage, especially from NSAIDs and intense physical stress [5].

4. Glycine: The Unsung Gut Hero

Glycine is a calming amino acid that supports collagen formation and modulates inflammation in the gut. It also plays a key role in:

• Glutathione synthesis (important for gut detox)

• Regulating intestinal immune responses

• Repairing damaged epithelial cells

Though often overlooked, glycine complements collagen and colostrum beautifully — amplifying their gut-healing effects.

5. Clinically Relevant Dosing — Not Fairy Dust

Most gut health products use micro-doses — 500 mg here, 1 g there — far below what studies use. HEALIA is formulated to match real clinical protocols, delivering:

• 8+ grams colostrum [2]

• 9+ grams collagen peptides

• Therapeutic zinc carnosine (150 mg) [4]

• 5 grams of total l-glycine to support recovery and balance

What Can You Expect from HEALIA?

• Reduced bloating and gut discomfort

• Faster recovery from gut stress (travel, illness, meds)

• Enhanced resilience during workouts and stressful periods

• Support for leaky gut, IBS, and gut inflammation

• A calmer, stronger, more balanced gut ecosystem

HEALIA isn’t just a gut supplement — it’s a gut healing protocol in a pouch. Grounded in science, powered by nature, and dosed to deliver. Your gut deserves more than promises. It deserves proof. That’s HEALIA.
