L-HISTIDINE GUARD
PERQUE L-Histidine Guard is an essential amino acid for gut and immune support. L-histidine supplementation can help restore optimum stomach acid production and in turn stimulate the secretion of gastric juices such as pepsin and hydrochloric acid. L-histidine is a good source of stomach acid protons, which are often lacking in people with inherent digestive issues and those with allergies. L-histidine also has significant physiological antioxidant properties.
Health Benefits:
- Supports healthy stomach acid production for optimum digestion.
- Provides safer antioxidant benefit to address oxidative stress.
- Supports healthier cellular metabolism and histidine-histamine balance.
L-histidine is important for both digestive health and immune system function. In addition to stimulating gastric acid and gastric juice production, l-histidine can scavenge free radicals and help remove toxic “divalent” metal ions from the body, providing an anti-inflammatory effect while empowering the body to boost its inherent antioxidant pools.
Histidine is the precursor for other important organic compounds such as anserine and carnosine which also add to the antioxidant capacity of the body, preventing oxidative damage to cells, and supporting skeletal, muscular and cardiac health.
Finally, L-histidine is a precursor for histamine. Histamine has a variety of roles including: functioning as a neurotransmitter, stimulating stomach cells to produce gastric acid, and providing a local immune response to foreign material.
Directions:
- As a dietary supplement, take one (1) capsule 30 minutes before meals or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

This is the combination my nutritionist approves
Outstanding product and ingredients for eye health with great results
Village Green staff is outstanding and helpful, Louis, Tatiana, Kirstie, & Kala above and beyond
I have used this for many years and like it a lot and will keep on using it
I've been using this for decades. Natural, minimal chemicals that retard the development of stink producing bacteria. Long-lasting on the skin, and months of use per item.
I was asked to write a review I don't know if what I have to say would help but here it is. I am 74 years old and have trusted Village Green for years. Trust is something you earn in my opinion, and they have fulfilled their side of each purchase with professionalism, and I fulfilled mine with loyalty.
Good product
It’s lowering my cholesterol.

Gives me my essential amino acids. I put it in my coffee
I found out about Jamaican Dogwood years ago from my herbalist Leslie Alexander, still practising in Erie Pa. It stops pain, doesn't bring me or down and If I need to sleep, it lets me. Great herb. Great price, Thank-you, Debb
Best establishment in the metro area! I have been using the Apothecary for almost 50 years years and now my family does as well. They all are knowledgeable, helpful and ready to answer any questions.
I’ve been depending on Jarrow’s Ideal Bowel Support and think it’s very helpful.
