What customers say
Customers consistently praise Swanson's DGL Chewable Tablets for their effectiveness in supporting digestive health, particularly for issues like acid reflux, heartburn, and stomach ulcers. The key ingredient, deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL), is highlighted for its protective benefits on the stomach lining. Users appreciate the product's value for money, noting the large bottle size and reasonable price. The tablets are described as easy to chew with a mild minty or licorice flavor that most find pleasant or acceptable. Many customers report noticeable improvements in their digestive comfort shortly after beginning use, with some incorporating it into their daily routine. However, a few users express concerns about certain ingredients like maltodextrin and citric acid potentially irritating sensitive stomachs. Overall, the product is well-regarded for its quality and effectiveness in providing natural digestive relief.

DGL (Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice) is a form of licorice that has had the glycyrrhizin removed to reduce side effects like high blood pressure. DGL is often used to support digestive health, especially for heartburn, reflux, and stomach ulcers. What you might experience when taking DGL: 1. Reduced heartburn symptoms: Some people notice relief from heartburn or reflux within 20 to 30 minutes of taking DGL before meals. 2. Reduced stomach discomfort: When taken regularly, DGL can reduce irritation of the stomach lining and relieve symptoms of gastritis. 3. No noticeable effects: If you don’t have an active stomach problem, you may not feel anything, as DGL is gentle and mainly works to heal the lining. Why the effect might not be noticeable: No acute symptoms: If you’re taking DGL prophylactically rather than to treat an acute problem, the effect may be less obvious. Slow healing: DGL works gradually to help repair the stomach lining. It’s not a “quick fix” like antacids. Dosage and form: The effectiveness of DGL depends on the correct dosage (usually 380–760 mg taken 20 minutes before meals) and form (chewable tablets work best because they target the lining of the mouth and esophagus). Unless you have acute gastrointestinal symptoms, you likely won’t feel the effects right away. However, when taken regularly, DGL can help maintain digestive health and protect the stomach lining.

I have been taking licorice for a long time but it was the normal version. Decides to get this since i am taking this for blood sugar control and stomach issues. Long term high blood pressure issues can be caused by the normal one. Taste isnt the best but it'll do.

Does NOT taste like licorice LOL. Unpleasant but tolerable taste. They take a while to dissolve in your mouth. You take them before a meal. I have heartburn/acid reflux sometimes. I read these help. They do help but it's not like a WOW I'm healed kind of thing. Solid brand. Good price.

As a nutritionist, I have countless testimonials from time to time, from my clients about how this DGL works well for stomach ulcers and digestive issues. The quality and ingredients are very good. Fast delivery all the time. No awful taste and the size is easy to swallow. The package was intact.

Excellent product
Verified purchase
I buy a lot of things every month and reviewing each one individually would be overwhelming. So, I created this template. If you're reading this, it means I'm very satisfied with this product and future buyers can purchase with confidence. Of course, I'm not an irrensponsible buyer and if product isn't good, I'll also take the time to write, a proper review.

Tastes like candy, actually helps my digestion
Verified purchase
What blew me away first was the taste. These chewable DGL tablets are so good you’d think they’re candy — but don’t be fooled, they’re actual digestion help. I chew one about an hour before I eat, usually before each meal, so most days I end up taking two to three a day. They’re the first thing I put in my stomach before a meal and honestly they’ve made a real difference. I used to have problems with my bowel movements — depression and stress made things sluggish — and since I started these, I poop better. Simple as that. They’re tasty, convenient, and I love that I can pop one before a meal and feel like I’m doing something right for my digestion. Just be careful: they’re dangerously tasty for a “medicine.”

Throughout the centuries, deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) has been used by a number of cultures, as it was believed to be able to aid the body’s defense against a number of ailments. In fact, large amounts of licorice were discovered in King Tut’s tomb, presumably, so he could use it in the afterlife. Today DGL licorice extract is used by many to provides specific support for sensitive gastrointestinal tissues by providing a protective coating for the mucosal lining of the esophagus, stomach, and intestinal tract.
