Here is a description of the ingredients used.

Proteins are the building blocks of tissues that support metabolism and energy production, and are essential for the functioning of all organs and systems in the body. Milk proteins are a mixture of whey and casein proteins. Whey protein is a complete, highly digestible protein containing all essential and nonessential amino acids. Whey protein contains essential sulfur-containing amino acids and branched-chain amino acids, which provide whey protein with an optimal protein efficiency ratio. Whey protein is characterized by a high content of the most deficient amino acids – lycine and tryptophan, which carry special protective factors called immunoglobulins. The whey protein lactoferrin prevents the growth of staphylococci and Candida albicans in the body. Products containing whey protein improve the functionality of the main detoxifying organs and enhance the immunoglobulin spectrum, increasing IgG, IgA, and IgM levels. Introducing whey protein into the diet has been shown to increase glutathione levels, contributing to a pronounced antioxidant effect. Casein is broken down twice as slowly as whey protein, ensuring a steady supply of its amino acids to the body. Casein's slow digestibility halts muscle protein catabolism. Physiologically active peptides are formed from caseins during digestion. Milk protein protects and supports the function of detoxifying organs, participating in phases I and II of the detoxification process. Proteins play a significant role in the detoxification process. A toxin entering the bloodstream can interact with proteins and blood cells, altering its toxicokinetic properties. The physiological function of albumins is to bind free fatty acids and bilirubin circulating in the blood. These substances can influence the interaction of proteins with xenobiotics. Milk proteins contain L-cystine, a sulfur-containing amino acid that facilitates the conjugation of intermediate metabolites of toxic substances (phase II detoxification), essential for the formation of glutathione. L-cystine contributes to the elasticity, firmness, and texture of the skin, and is involved in the detoxification of toxins. Thanks to its methyl groups, it supports liver function, reduces the risk of fatty degeneration due to disease or chemical exposure, and exhibits antioxidant properties.

Domestic apple tree (fruit) (Malus domestica Borkh.) - apples contain beneficial vitamins and microelements that can help the body fight infection: pectin, fructose, potassium, calcium, iron, carotene, biotin, and other vitamins. Apples have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, vitamin-rich, hematopoietic, and phytoncidal properties, and improve digestion. They are used for functional gastrointestinal insufficiency and inflammatory gastrointestinal diseases.

Carrot Carrots (Daucus sativus roeh L.) contain carbohydrates, proteins, carotene, vitamins B1, B2, B6, C, E, H, K, and PP, calcium, iron, potassium, sodium, copper, trace elements such as boron and iodine, and essential amino acids (34% of total protein). The most valuable of these are leucine and sulfur-containing amino acids. Carrots stimulate peristalsis and gastric juice secretion, which improves digestion, reduces the risk of constipation, and protects the intestines and stomach from various serious diseases.

Pumpkin (Cucurbita Pepo L.) is rich in vitamins: β-carotene, C, PP, E, D, K, group B; micro- and macroelements: F, Ca, K, Zn, Mg, I, Mn, Cu, P, J; fiber; enzymes. Pumpkin contains 5 times more carotene than carrots. And carotene is converted in the human body into vitamin A, which acts as an antioxidant and wound-healing agent. Fiber (pectin) can reduce the acidity of gastric juice, nourishes beneficial intestinal microflora, and strengthens the immune system. In addition, fiber slows the absorption of sugar in the blood, and also promotes normal bowel function, actively cleansing it of toxins. Microelements and pectins accelerate tissue regeneration, gently relieve constipation, and have a mild laxative effect.

Elecampane (roots and rhizomes) (Ínula L.) has a general tonic effect, increases the body's resistance, regulates the secretory function of the stomach and intestines, stimulates the general metabolism in the body, accelerates the healing of ulcers in the stomach and duodenum, improves appetite, has antipyretic, antibacterial, anthelmintic, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, diuretic, diaphoretic, choleretic, metabolic, antioxidant, hypoglycemic, antiallergic, antitumor, tonic, restorative, sedative, antispasmodic effects.

Rhodiola rosea (roots and rhizomes) (Rhodiola rosea L.) has adaptogenic, tonic, stimulating, and nootropic properties, helping to normalize metabolic processes. It has antimicrobial and fungistatic properties, increasing the body's resistance to adverse environmental factors of chemical, biological, and physical origin. It is used as a stimulant after illnesses, gastrointestinal disorders, fever, and anemia.

St. John's wort (grass) (Hypericum L.) is a medicinal plant whose preparations are widely used in medical practice as anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, bactericidal, astringent, sedative, and antidepressant agents. Medicinal plants containing tannins, including St. John's wort, are of primary importance in the treatment of inflammatory gastrointestinal diseases, particularly enterocolitis and colitis. St. John's wort is effective against diarrhea due to its astringent properties. This astringent effect is achieved through the interaction of tannins with the mucous membrane due to the presence of numerous phenolic groups. These tannins irreversibly bind to mucus proteins to form strong bonds, forming a thin but dense film (albuminates) on the mucous surface, which prevents irritants from affecting the intestines. The resulting film prevents further irritation of sensory nerve endings. At the same time, a reflexive vasoconstriction occurs, reducing vascular permeability, reducing exudation, and inhibiting enzymes. This slows the progression of the inflammatory process. Astringents are classified as anti-inflammatory (antiphlogistic) agents with local action, which reduce the sensitivity of afferent nerve endings and prevent their excitation.

Peppermint (leaves) (Mentha piperita L.) has a tonic, calming, analgesic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, vasodilator, sedative, carminative, astringent, hemostatic, choleretic, and antiseptic effect. It relaxes the smooth muscles of internal organs and increases the secretion of the digestive glands. It is used as an appetite stimulant, for functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and liver, respiratory diseases, increased excitability, insomnia, neurotic conditions, pain of various localizations, allergic skin diseases, and atopic dermatitis.

Propolis possesses antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, immunostimulant, regenerative, and antioxidant activity. Due to its antibiotic properties, propolis has an effect on gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, diphtheria, and Escherichia coli). The antimicrobial effect of propolis is due to the influence of flavonoids and benzoic acid. Terpenes inhibit the growth of Candida yeasts, and the flavonoid acacetin increases capillary resistance. Propolis increases phagocytic activity and antibody synthesis. Propolis has a pronounced inhibitory effect on the growth of herpes, smallpox, and influenza A viruses. It has antitoxic properties, stimulates metabolism, tissue regeneration, and the body's defenses, and relieves symptoms of vomiting, nausea, and heartburn. The beneficial effects of propolis in treating gastrointestinal diseases are based on the formation of a surface-active film, reduced vascular spasms, and its anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects, which generally accelerate the development of granulation due to its antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral properties. It is used in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases as an analgesic and trophogranulating agent. Among the amino acids, propolis contains significant concentrations of tryptophan and phenylalanine, which are precursors for the synthesis of serotonin and catecholamines involved in the regulation of gastric motility. Propolis helps normalize metabolism, improve overall health, and enhance patients' quality of life.

Turmeric (rhizomes) (Curcuma L.) is a natural antibiotic with anti-inflammatory properties. Consuming turmeric increases intestinal flora activity and improves digestion. It has choleretic and anti-allergic properties, stops bleeding, and promotes wound healing. Turmeric is used for gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes, and is a powerful antioxidant.

Oats (Avéna satívaL.) – compared to other grain crops, oat grain is characterized by a higher content and the best ratio in protein of such essential amino acids as lysine and tryptophan; it is rich in minerals and has higher energy properties, due to the fat content from 6 to 9%. Oats contain lecithin; iron; vitamins B1, E. Complex starch grains of oats are saccharified more easily than the starch of other cereals. The use of oats makes it possible to introduce fiber, insoluble and soluble dietary fiber that is indigestible in the human body and, in particular, β-glucan into food products. The content of β-glucan in oats is higher than in other grain crops. β-glucan has a wide range of biological activity and, above all, is immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory. Traditionally, oats are used as an enveloping, analgesic and tonic for diseases of the stomach and intestines. Oat grains contain polyphenols, which help lower blood cholesterol and remove sugars and toxins.

Vegetable oil is essential not only as an energy source but also as a supplier of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), phosphatides, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins (K, E), and carotenoids, which are involved in the synthesis of cell membranes, nervous, brain, and other tissues, and metabolism. Lipids improve the absorption of other nutrients, enhance the body's resistance to adverse environmental influences, and influence physical development. They influence vascular permeability (increasing elasticity and decreasing permeability), blood flow, and microcirculation, and play a vital role in metabolic processes in body tissues. Consuming PUFAs stimulates the body's immune defense system, promotes faster healing of inflammatory stomach diseases, gastric ulcers, and duodenal ulcers, and promotes healthy, healthy, and improved capillary function.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, participates in cellular oxidation-reduction reactions, protects against free radicals, has an antihypoxic effect, blocks free-radical oxidation reactions and restores oxidized compounds, protects cell membranes and, in particular, lymphocytes from the damaging effects of peroxidation, promotes the synthesis of serotonin from tryptophan, improves immunity, is used to restore interferon, antibodies and T-lymphocytes when microbes and viruses enter the body; stimulates the endocrine system, central nervous system, promotes iron absorption and normal hematopoiesis; normalizes cholesterol metabolism, improves liver function; increases performance, reduces fatigue, irritability, depression; normalizes skin condition; promotes the elimination of toxins. Vitamin C increases the body's resistance to intoxication with harmful substances, overheating, cooling, oxygen starvation. Vitamin C is involved in phase II of detoxification.

Vitamin PP is essential for the functioning of cytochrome P-450 and participates in phases I and II of detoxification. It is a component of many enzymes involved in protein metabolism, essential for cellular nutrition, glycolysis, and fat synthesis. It is also essential for the metabolism of toxins (endo- and xenobiotics). It influences higher nervous activity and the function of all digestive organs, including red blood cell formation, and the cardiovascular system. Specifically, it dilates small peripheral vessels, improving blood circulation in the skin and subcutaneous tissues, enhancing the removal of metabolic products, and the delivery of nutrients. Vitamin PP is a non-enzymatic, indirect antioxidant that influences the levels of glutathione, a key factor in detoxification and the neutralization of free radical oxidation.

Vitamin B1 is a vitamin that boosts the spirit; it promotes energy production, normalizes gastric acidity, stomach and intestinal motility, supports the nervous system and heart function, strengthens the immune system, and is an antioxidant.

Vitamin B2, as a coenzyme, is involved in oxidation-reduction processes and ATP synthesis. It protects the retina from excessive UV exposure and, together with vitamin A, ensures normal vision, including light and color perception and dark adaptation. Vitamin B2 has a positive effect on the nervous system and stimulates hematopoiesis. Vitamin B2 is essential for the functioning of cytochrome P-450, participating in phase I detoxification. Vitamin B2 is a direct-acting, non-enzymatic antioxidant. A deficiency of vitamin B2 leads to decreased activity of erythrocyte glutathione reductase, which is essential for restoring this crucial detoxification factor and inactivating free-radical glutathione oxidation. Vitamin B2 facilitates oxygen absorption by skin, nail, and hair cells and accelerates the conversion of vitamin B6 into its active form in the body.

Vitamin B5 plays an important role in metabolism, including the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. It is involved in the development of a strong immune system, regulates intestinal motility, increases hemoglobin levels in the blood, normalizes the functioning of the nervous system, and helps relieve fatigue and stress.

Vitamin B6 plays an important role in protein and fat metabolism, promotes the metabolism of tryptophan, methionine, cysteine, glutamic and other amino acids, plays an important role in histamine metabolism; participates in energy production; ensures normal brain function; is necessary for the synthesis of estrogens; reduces irritability, lethargy, drowsiness; ensures normal liver function; helps strengthen the immune system and eliminate toxins. Antihypoxant and detoxifier. Vitamin B6 is necessary for the functioning of cytochrome P-450, participates in phases I and II of detoxification. Vitamin B6 increases the production of red blood cells, which promotes good blood circulation in the scalp, restoration of the natural hair growth cycle, reduces the rate of hair loss. With its deficiency, the activity of the central and peripheral nervous system is disrupted, dry skin appears, dermatitis develops.

Vitamin B9 is involved in metabolism and the synthesis of amino acids and nucleic acids, promotes DNA synthesis, participates in hematopoiesis, and removes toxins. Folic acid deficiency causes inflammatory lesions of the oral mucosa and gastrointestinal tract.

Vitamin B12 has high biological activity, plays a key role in metabolism (including protein synthesis, amino acid synthesis, nucleic acid synthesis, and purine synthesis), and ensures the formation of an enzyme necessary for the production of lipoprotein in myelin tissue. It is essential for normal hematopoiesis, the utilization of amino acids and folate, and the formation of choline and nucleic acids. This vitamin has a beneficial effect on lipid metabolism in the liver, the functioning of the central and peripheral nervous systems, and increases the body's nonspecific resistance to adverse factors.

Vitamin E has an antioxidant effect, participates in tissue respiration, protein synthesis, cell proliferation, and carbohydrate metabolism, and prevents red blood cell hemolysis. It promotes the restoration of collagen and elastin in the skin and tissue regeneration. Vitamin E improves protein utilization by the body, facilitates the absorption of fats and vitamins A and D. It stimulates muscle function, promoting glycogen accumulation and normalizing metabolic processes. Vitamin E is involved in phase II detoxification. It protects the skin from damage caused by UV radiation and free radicals. Vitamin E deficiency occurs when lipid metabolism is disrupted and causes general weakness, fatigue, and apathy.

Vitamin H is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, and fatty acids; it supports the nervous system and regulates blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Biotin deficiency can occur in conditions such as anacid gastritis, intestinal diseases, and intestinal microflora suppression due to antibiotics and sulfonamides.

Beta-carotene (β-carotene) is a precursor of vitamin A and a powerful antioxidant, with immunostimulating and protective effects.

Sodium is an important intracellular element that plays a role in creating the necessary buffering capacity of the blood, regulating blood pressure, water metabolism (sodium ions promote swelling of colloidal tissues, which retains water in the body), activating digestive enzymes, and regulating nervous and muscle tissue.

Zinc is found in all organs and tissues, where its levels vary widely. Zinc plays a vital role in the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins, including collagen. Zinc is essential for bone formation, protects the liver from chemical damage, increases the activity of bone and intestinal phosphatase, helps prevent free radical formation, and is a powerful antioxidant with reparative and regenerative properties. Zinc also contributes to the immune system and increases resistance to stress.

Lecithin is a phospholipid concentrate. Lecithin is one of the most important lipid components of the membranes of all cells in the body. It has a membrane-stabilizing effect. Lecithin forms the protective sheaths surrounding nerves, the so-called myelin sheaths. Damage to these sheaths is observed in multiple sclerosis. This results in a positive effect of lecithin on memory, mental performance, anti-sclerotic properties, a reduction in blood cholesterol levels, and the prevention of its deposition in blood vessel walls. Furthermore, as a component of plasma lipoproteins, lecithin, when incorporated into high-density lipoproteins, promotes reverse cholesterol transport and its removal from vessel walls. It also helps lower blood pressure. As an important component of hepatocyte membranes and a synergist of lipid antioxidants, lecithin has a hepatoprotective effect, enhancing the liver's defenses against infection and various types of poisoning. Lecithin promotes digestion, improves fat metabolism, and enhances the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Lecithin stimulates muscle contractility and increases muscle strength and endurance. It is one of the most important lipid components of the membranes of all cells in the body.

Dietary fiber(guar and xanthan gums, Dietary fiber (from oats, fruits, and vegetables) protects the gastrointestinal tract from the damaging effects of toxins and accelerates the elimination of toxic substances. Increased intestinal gas formation, with all its consequences, is also often associated with limited dietary fiber intake. Dietary fiber, being prebiotics, is not absorbed by the body, but it selectively stimulates the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the human intestine. Fermentation of dietary fiber leads to the formation of short-chain fatty acids, which: are absorbed by intestinal cells and used as energy for intensive growth and maintenance of the integrity of the intestinal epithelium; reduce intestinal pH, creating an environment unfavorable to the growth of pathogenic flora; stimulate intestinal peristalsis. Dietary fiber significantly improves the absorption of vitamins, minerals, calcium, magnesium, and iron. It has a beneficial effect on lipid metabolism, reduces blood cholesterol levels, and slows the absorption of sugar from the gastrointestinal tract. The beneficial effect of dietary fiber on constipation is known.

Maltodextrin is an easily digestible polysaccharide that provides a nutrient medium for intestinal microflora. It ensures low osmolarity in foods, facilitates bowel movements, increases satiety, and is especially recommended before and after antibiotic therapy. It also has a prebiotic effect.

Carbohydrates provide energy and quickly saturate the body. Carbohydrates play a vital role in detoxification processes, providing the energy needed to metabolize xenobiotics.

The separately obtained mixtures are then combined and mixed together. To do this, they are loaded into a mixer, and sugar (sucrose) (93.591464 kg) and flavoring (0.025 kg) are added. Mixing is continued for 25 minutes until the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the product.

The finished product is obtained—a dry concentrate of the "Stomach" drink (a dry concentrate for improving gastrointestinal function). Depending on the specific conditions of use, the dry concentrate of the "Stomach" drink is sent to:

- for packaging and packing of 20 g in a sealed bag, which requires the end consumer to add 150-200 ml of boiling water to the contents of the bag, mix thoroughly, let it brew for 1-2 minutes, cool to an acceptable temperature and consume in liquid form;

- to the production process section, where, under factory conditions, water is added to the dry concentrate to produce the "Stomach" drink in liquid form, which is then packaged and sealed in a sealed container.

Examples 1-3 demonstrate the feasibility of achieving the applicant's stated technical result across the entire claimed ingredient content range: at both marginal (minimum and maximum) and average values. The balanced composition of components and their quantitative ranges in this composition is scientifically substantiated, taking into account the optimal limits of physiological fluctuations for any pathogenetically justified nutritional and biologically active substance, as both a deficiency and an excess are harmful to the human body. Introducing component levels below or above the stated quantitative range will alter the composition's balance and will not ensure its effective action.

We conducted a study to evaluate the effects of the claimed "Stomach" drink concentrate in patients with chronic gastritis and chronic reflux gastritis not associated with HP infection (HP – Helicobacter pylori) in the acute phase, with complaints of clinical manifestations of the disease: abdominal pain and/or heaviness, nausea, and bloating. Patients received standard therapy and a gentle diet with mechanical and chemical adjuvants. They consented to the procedure for diagnostic purposes and were divided into two groups of 20 patients each: a control group and a study group. For 30 days, patients in the study group received supplemental nutrition in the form of the claimed "Stomach" drink concentrate with the quantitative values of the ingredients as described in Example 1, while the control group received no supplemental nutrition. All components of the declared concentrate of the drink "Stomach" are approved for use and were consumed in doses in full compliance with the recommended levels of their consumption.

Positive changes were noted in the main group receiving the composition according to the claimed invention. It was established that the "Stomach" drink concentrate is more effective in reducing pain and discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract: according to individual observation diaries, within 10 to 20 days of use, patients in the main group experienced relief of abdominal pain and/or heaviness, nausea, and bloating in an average of 80% of cases, compared to only 20% in the control group. According to gastroduodenoscopy data, a reduction and relief of inflammation of the mucous membrane of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum after a course of dietary therapy was observed significantly more often in the main group (on average, 95%), and less frequently (60%) in the control group. This indicates more effective healing of the mucous membrane and a reduction in inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract when using the "Stomach" drink.

Thus, when using the patented "Stomach" drink concentrate, a technical result is achieved: improved gastrointestinal tract function, which is expressed in the acceleration and facilitation of standard therapy, the elimination of pain and discomfort, and a reduction in inflammatory processes in the gastrointestinal tract.

The invention expands the range of nutritional products, including preventative and/or functional nutrition, designed to improve gastrointestinal function. The patented drink concentrate for improving gastrointestinal function (the "Stomach" drink concentrate) allows for prolonged treatment, rather than the need to discontinue medications that adversely affect the mucous membrane due to gastrointestinal pain.
