How BrandName works 

BrandName is like a soothing balm for the inside of the gut, used for ulcerative colitis. Instead of working throughout the whole body, BrandName gently settles right at the troubled spot in the colon, calming the inflammation by stopping substances that fuel the fire and protecting the gut lining so it can heal. It also blocks signals that tell the body to keep attacking, allowing the colon to rest and recover. In short, BrandName helps restore peace in the gut without disturbing the rest of the body.
