Botanicals and zinc in chewable tablets for upper GI health
Symptoms of upper gastrointestinal discomfort are among the most common patient complaints. Supporting the healing process of esophageal, gastric, and abdominal tissues requires more than just treating symptoms. Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) is rich in flavonoids and chalcones, among other constituents, that favorably yet safely influence mucosal health by a number of mechanisms. Slippery elm bark contains a mucilage component with soothing properties ideally suited for protecting the tissues of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Zinc has several functions essential for healing disturbed tissues, including those of the upper digestive tract. These therapies are combined in a pleasant-tasting chewable tablet, since capsules do not allow the development of the soothing coating action required for maximal effectiveness.
Deglycyrrhizinated licorice contains flavonoids and chalcones exhibiting multiple protective effects on gastric mucosal tissues, but is free of potentially hazardous glycyrrhizin that occurs naturally in licorice.
DGL has repeatedly demonstrated effectiveness in the treatment of ersive lesions of the upper digestive tract in controlled human clinical trials.
The topical benefits of DGL and the clinical failure of forms that did not interact with saliva emphasize the necessity of a chewable DGL tablet.
Slippery elm bark contains a mucilage component with soothing properties ideally suited for protecting the tissues ot the upper gastrointestinal tract.
