Natural Factors DGL Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice Root is used to soothe irritated stomachs, helping to relieve abdominal pain and burning sensations during digestion. DGL protects the stomach lining by stimulating the natural production of mucin, the slippery protective coating of the stomach and intestines, and helps relieve inflammatory conditions in the gastrointestinal tract.
Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to aid digestion and stomach complaints. However, licorice in its natural form contains a compound called glycyrrhizin that can raise blood pressure and cause other potentially severe side effects in some people.
DGL stands for “deglycyrrhizinated licorice,” meaning that this licorice root extract contains no glycyrrhizin and is suitable for people with high blood pressure. The 10:1 extract provides the equivalent of 4000 mg of the raw herb in each tablet, a concentration that scientific research has confirmed to be effective.
Studies show that DGL is an effective herbal remedy for stomach complaints. This DGL formula is delivered in convenient chewable tablets because chewing helps mix DGL with saliva, allowing it to become active in the digestive tract. For the greatest effectiveness, chew one DGL tablet 20 minutes before each meal.
Recommended Use: Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) protects stomach lining by stimulating mucous formation and secretion. Helps relieve abdominal pain, burning sensation in the stomach, and inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (demulcent).
