Mastic is a natural resin used since ancient times to support normal digestion, oral health, and more. It comes from the unique Chios variety of the mastic tree and is processed into raw “tears,” powder, and oil. You’ll find mastic as a key ingredient in Masticlife’s advanced dietary supplements, plus cosmetics, toothpastes, and mouthwashes.

What is mastic, read in detail here.

• Mastic supports the normal function of the digestive system and

The right choice depends on the effect you’re looking for.

• Mastic tears are the original form and meant for chewing. They offer a unique woody-fruity taste and pleasant aroma. Many enjoy chewing mastic as a healthy daily habit. If you’re new to it, we’ll guide you on how to start.
• Mastic capsules are modern supplements designed to deliver mastic’s benefits directly to your stomach. You can pick pure powder capsules or those enhanced with additional ingredients.
• Mastic powder is easy to take and works not only in your digestive system but also in your mouth and esophagus.

No matter which form you choose, always ensure you get original, authentic mastic for the best results.

It’s nearly impossible to overdose on mastic, so if you enjoy chewing it, feel free to chew as much as you like.

For dietary supplements, however, it’s best to stick to the recommended dose—usually not more than 2 grams of pure mastic per day—as taking more typically doesn’t add extra benefits.

There are no risks to taking mastic, but definitely heed these warnings:

1. Mastic may lower blood pressure. This cannot be cited as a beneficial effect of mastic, but we feel it is important to point it out. In practice, this only applies to people with very high blood pressure, but if you suffer from low blood pressure, check that the effect of the mastic does not lower your blood pressure further.
2. Do not take the mastic at the same time as probiotics. This does not affect the effectiveness of the mastic, but on the contrary the mastic eliminates the probiotics so that their intake is practically useless. Always take probiotics, live cultures at least 3 hours after taking the mastic. Do not use products combining mastic and probiotics. Or just use Mastic Vital Double Action! Be careful not to confuse them with prebiotics, which on the contrary are ideal for combination with mastic.
3. If you feel heaviness or pressure in the stomach area when taking the mastic, take the mastic at least 30 minutes before eating. The feeling of pressure may disappear. This is common in people who suffer from gastritis, reflux or helicobacter pylori infection.

The terms essentially refer to the same product and derive from the original Greek word μαστιχα. Variations in spelling and pronunciation occur due to language differences.

In Czech, the terms masticha and mastika are common, while in German it is referred to as Mastix and in English as mastic. In Turkish, the product is known as damla sakızı.
