Deglycyrrhized Liquorice (DGL) is a specially prepared extract where the Glycyrrhizin molecule has been removed. Each tablet contains less than 0.9% Glycyrrhizic acid. In this form, the main active components are the flavonoids which have a demulcent (soothing, coating effect) on the lining of the digestive and urinary tracts and help protect against ulcer formation.
The flavonoids and chalcones in DGL also actively promote healing of damaged digestive tract cells. DGL stimulates the normal defence mechanisms that prevent ulcer formation, improving the condition and renewal of the gut lining.
Uses: Peptic Ulcers (ulcers of the stomach or duodenum), mouth ulcers, indigestion & heartburn.
Dosage: Chew one to four tablets per day.Best taken 20 minutes before meals and before bed.
