Hello!

According to a couple of studies, Mastic Gum significantly improved Crohn's disease symptoms. However, I don't see it talked about much or even studied too much even with so much promise. Anyone try this?

A friend of mine that I used to work with told me about those studies when they came out around 10 years ago. I haven't heard anything about it since.

Those studies were *very* small, and short in duration. They probably didn't get much attention from other researchers because of those limitations.
