When occasional heartburn or an unsettled stomach keeps flaring, the lining of your GI tract is often what needs support. DGL (deglycyrrhizinated licorice) helps your stomach and esophagus produce their protective mucus layer, soothing occasional discomfort — and because the glycyrrhizin is removed, you get the benefit of licorice without its blood-pressure concern.

DGL is for occasional support, not a substitute for medical care. Persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, or GI pain should be evaluated by your provider.
DGL supports the mucosal lining of the stomach and esophagus by helping those tissues secrete more of their protective mucus — the barrier that shields them from acid and irritants. Standard licorice contains glycyrrhizin, which can raise blood pressure; DGL removes it and keeps only the biologically active flavonoids, so the support stays targeted to the GI tract.
Chew one to two tablets before meals, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Flourish is a compounding pharmacy with an on-staff pharmacist and nutrition team, so your questions about digestive and gut-lining support reach people who do this every day — not a warehouse. Explore Digestion & GI, Gut Health, or pair it with SBI Protect, MegaMucosa, Betaine Pepsin.
What is DGL?
Deglycyrrhizinated licorice — a licorice extract with the glycyrrhizin removed, leaving the active flavonoids that support the GI lining.
What is DGL used for?
Supporting the stomach and esophageal lining and soothing occasional heartburn and stomach discomfort.
Why deglycyrrhizinated?
Glycyrrhizin, the compound in regular licorice, can raise blood pressure; removing it makes DGL suitable for regular use.
When should I take it?
Many take it before meals or when discomfort tends to occur; chewable forms are common.
Is it safe with blood pressure concerns?
Because the glycyrrhizin is removed, DGL doesn't carry licorice's blood-pressure effect — but check with your provider if you're unsure.
How is it different from an antacid?
An antacid neutralizes acid; DGL supports the tissue's own protective mucus layer.
Can I take it with other gut supplements?
Yes — it's commonly paired with immunoglobulins, mucosal support, or digestive enzymes.
