Frequently asked questions
-
Mastic Gum is a natural aromatic resin produced by the Pistacia lentiscus tree, an evergreen shrub native to the Mediterranean region. It has been traditionally harvested for centuries, particularly on the Greek island of Chios, where the tree produces small resin droplets that harden into translucent crystals when exposed to air. Mastic has a long history of traditional use in Mediterranean cultures both as a food ingredient and botanical supplement.
-
Raw Mastic Gum is available as crystallised resin pieces that are traditionally chewed. This product provides the same natural resin in powdered and encapsulated form, offering a convenient alternative for those who prefer not to chew the raw resin. The capsule format also makes it easier to take a consistent daily amount.
-
Each capsule contains Mastic Gum and a small amount of potato starch used as a capsule filling aid. The capsule shell is HPMC, a plant-derived vegetarian cellulose. Potato starch is not included as an active ingredient and no nutritional benefit is claimed from its presence. No magnesium stearate, artificial colours, artificial sweeteners or hydrogenated oils are added.
-
Each bottle contains 90 capsules. At the suggested use of 1 capsule per day, this provides a 90-day supply.
-
Mastic Gum is generally well tolerated at typical supplement doses. If you are taking prescription medication, are due to undergo surgery, or have a known allergy to plants in the Anacardiaceae (cashew) family — which includes pistachios and mangoes — consult your doctor or pharmacist before use. As with all supplements, discontinue use and seek advice if you experience an adverse reaction.
-
Yes. The capsule shell is made from HPMC (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), a plant-derived material. There are no animal-derived ingredients anywhere in the formula.
-
This product does not contain any of the 14 major allergens listed under UK food labelling regulations. It is manufactured in a facility that handles a range of ingredients, so if you have a severe allergy, please contact us before purchasing.

We recommend consulting your GP or midwife before taking any food supplement during pregnancy or breastfeeding. This applies to all supplements, not just this product.
