DGL
plus Ginger™ These chewable wafers provide
Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice - with less than 3% Glycyrrhizinic
Acid - in its most effective form. Studies have shown that
for DGL to be effective, it must be chewed in the mouth
rather than taken as capsules or tablets. The use of DGL
avoids the sodium and fluid retention that can be induced
by use of the whole licorice extract over time. Clinical
studies on DGL have shown its effectiveness in improving
digestive comfort and promoting healthy gastric tissues
and function.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale)
has been used to promote healthy digestion. Impaired digestion
often hampers mental performance on account of the accompanying
discomfort and sluggish metabolism. Contemporary usage has
shown ginger to be effective in supporting digestive functions.
The extract is standardized for 5% gingerols, the active
constituents which enhance digestion and metabolism.
Proper digestion is essential
for the body to absorb all of the nutrients it needs for
healthy living. Aging people in many cases have an unhealthy
digestive tract causing nutrient deficiencies.
