DGL Gummies with Zinc Carnosine — Gut Lining Support, Sugar-Free

Licorice is one of the oldest digestive herbs there is, and the reason it went out of style is a single compound. Deglycyrrhizinated licorice — DGL — is licorice with that compound deliberately removed.

Why DGL and not whole licorice

Glycyrrhizin raises blood pressure and depletes potassium in larger doses. It is the part of the root that causes the problem, and it is the part that DGL leaves out. If you have ever been told to avoid licorice because of blood pressure, DGL is the form to read up on.

The rest of the formula

• Zinc carnosine — a zinc-carnosine chelate widely used in Japanese clinical practice for stomach lining support.
• Slippery elm and marshmallow root — both mucilaginous, which is why they are in a formula aimed at a comfortable lining rather than at digestion speed.

Chew before you swallow

DGL works on contact, which is why the traditional instruction is to chew it. These are sugar-free gummies made to be chewed and taken on an empty stomach, typically 20 minutes before a meal.
