Historically, mastic gum has had many commercial uses, dating as far back as the Greek Empire where it was used as a form of chewing gum.It traditionally has been used as a treatment for dyspepsia and other disorders of the digestive tract.astic gum has been shown in a recent study to apparently inhibit growth of H. pylori as well as act as an antibiotic against the bacterium. Mastic gum recently has been tested against ulcer formation and healing in various models. One study involved experimentally induced gastric and duodenal ulcers in rats.
One of the earliest uses of mastic was as chewing gum; hence, the name. Mastic-flavored chewing gum is sold in Lebanon, Turkey, and Greece. Mastic is used in ice cream, sauces, and seasoning in Lebanon.he rarity of mastic and the difficulty of its production make it expensive. As a result, imitations in the form of other resins appear in the market, sold as mastic, such as Boswellia or gum arabic. Other trees, such as Pistacia palaestina, can also produce a resin similar to mastic.
