Nature's Way DGL Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice 100 Chewable Tablets

The soothing, gut-protective benefits of licorice root without the blood pressure concern — Gutgard™ DGL extract in a clinically important chewable format that coats the oesophagus and stomach lining from the moment of swallowing.

Why

Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) has been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to soothe the digestive tract, particularly the stomach lining and oesophagus. Its primary mechanism is as a demulcent — it stimulates the production of mucus in the stomach lining, creating a protective barrier that shields the delicate mucosal tissue from stomach acid, irritation, and inflammation. Regular licorice root contains glycyrrhizin — a compound that, in higher doses or with prolonged use, can raise blood pressure and cause fluid retention. Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) has had the glycyrrhizin removed to less than 1%, retaining the beneficial flavonoids and mucilage-stimulating compounds while eliminating the blood pressure concern — making DGL safe for long-term use at therapeutic doses. The chewable format is clinically important: chewing the tablets mixes them with saliva, activating the DGL compounds and allowing them to begin coating the oesophagus and stomach lining from the moment of swallowing. Nature’s Way uses Gutgard™ — a clinically researched, standardised DGL extract. Sugar free, vegan, gluten free. 100 chewable tablets — 33 servings.
