Product Description
Why take DGL? It's a natural choice for healthy digestion. DGL stands for De-Glycyrrhizinated Licorice, which is proven to support a healthy digestive system. It is especially beneficial to provide soothing relief of the stomach lining and intestinal tract. Why take our DGL licorice extract? It is a unique, chewable extract which supports optimum digestive health. It's chewable because saliva enhances its natural compounds and promotes its absorption in your body. It provides, soothing relief. Stimulates and accelerates the natural protective juices in the digestive tract to help relieve occasional stomach discomfort immediately. DGL provides soothing relief for the stomach lining and the intestinal tract. It's also fructose and sugar free, so you can enjoy the benefits of DGL without sweeteners. Will DGL affect blood pressure levels? The concern about blood pressure revolves around the glycyrrhizic acid in licorice. Large amounts of licorice (>50 grams daily) have been known to cause side effects, including altering blood pressure levels. Although DGL is deglycyrrizinated licorice, a small amount of glycyrrhizic acid may remain after processing. This is less than 1% according to our Quality Assurance department. When used according to label directions, this amount should not raise blood pressure significantly. Is it safe to use DGL on a long term basis? Yes. The long term safety and efficacy of DGL has been documented. When taken at recommended dosages, DGL has been proven safe for long-term use without any adverse affects. Licorice has a long history of use in supporting a healthy stomach and gastrointestinal system. It is the presence of the glycyrrhizic acid in the licorice root that is responsible for some adverse effects. With DGL, the glycyrrhizic acid is extracted, leaving only minute amounts (less than 1%), thereby eliminating the risk of adverse effects when DGL is taken at recommended dosages. This product does not contain artificial colouring, artificial flavouring, corn, dairy products, gluten, ingredients of animal origin, preservatives, soy, wheat, yeast.
