Product Overview
DGL stands for deglycyrrhizinated licorice, an extract made from the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) that has been specifically processed to remove most of its glycyrrhizin content. Glycyrrhizin is the compound in whole licorice root associated with concerns around blood pressure and potassium levels when consumed in large amounts over time, so removing it allows DGL to be used more broadly in digestive-comfort formulas without those specific whole-licorice considerations. The remaining extract retains other naturally occurring licorice root compounds and is typically standardized and compressed into a chewable tablet, the traditional delivery format for this ingredient.
DGL has a long-standing reputation in the natural products industry, historically used as a comforting botanical for the stomach lining, and it remains one of the more recognizable single-ingredient herbal products in the digestive health category.*
How Brands Use DGL
- Compressed into chewable tablets, the traditional and most requested format for DGL
- Positioned as a single-ingredient traditional botanical in digestive comfort product lines
- Standardized processing to reduce glycyrrhizin content relative to whole licorice root extract
- Frequently sold alongside or combined with other digestive-comfort ingredients like slippery elm or marshmallow root
- Chewable format allows the extract to interact with the mouth and upper digestive tract before swallowing
Private label brands request DGL primarily as a chewable tablet for digestive comfort lines, often positioned alongside complementary herbal ingredients. Because glycyrrhizin content and standardization matter for this ingredient, we work with verified DGL raw material suppliers and can provide documentation supporting your label and quality claims.
Health Genesis Corporation formulates and compresses DGL tablets at our FDA-registered, GMP-certified, NSF-certified facility in Davie, Florida. Our family-owned company brings more than 25 years of botanical formulation experience, and we offer private label brands low minimum order quantities and in-house label design.
Why is DGL processed to remove glycyrrhizin?
Glycyrrhizin, found in whole licorice root, is associated with concerns around blood pressure and potassium levels when consumed in significant amounts over time, so the deglycyrrhizinated process reduces this compound while retaining other licorice root constituents for use in digestive comfort formulas.
Why is DGL typically sold as a chewable tablet rather than a capsule?
The chewable format is the traditional delivery method for DGL because it allows the extract to interact with the mouth and upper digestive tract during chewing, which is how this ingredient has historically been used.
Can DGL be combined with other digestive-comfort botanicals in one formula?
Yes, DGL is often paired with ingredients like slippery elm or marshmallow root in combination digestive comfort products, and our formulation team can help design a custom blend.
