The Active Ingredient Is: Licorice Root Extract (Deglycyrrhizinated)

Licorice root extract, specifically in its deglycyrrhizinated form, is a herbal compound used to support digestive comfort. This form is designed to minimise the risk of glycyrrhizin-related effects while providing mucosal support in the stomach and upper digestive tract.

This form is standardised to reduce glycyrrhizinic acid content, making it suitable for regular use in herbal digestive applications. It is sourced from the licorice plant and processed to emphasise its protective mucosal properties.

What Does Licorice Root Extract Do?

Licorice root extract helps support the mucous lining of the stomach and oesophagus, aiding in the buffering of acidity and promoting tissue protection. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects that may support mucosal recovery and comfort in the digestive tract, aligned with traditional and contemporary understanding of its actions.

Dr. Al-Azemi of the University of Nottingham found that deglycyrrhinated licorice root extract can contribute to protective mucosal activity in digestive tissues, supporting normal digestive function and resilience against irritation.
