DGL Synergy by Designs for Health – Digestive Lining Support with Chewable DGL
DGL Synergy chewable tablets by Designs for Health combine deglycyrrhizinated licorice with glycine and calcium for digestive support. This licorice-flavored formula offers GI lining support in a chewable form, with glycyrrhizin removed from the licorice rather than using unprocessed licorice root.
Key DGL Synergy Benefits
- Supports the protective lining of the digestive tract with deglycyrrhizinated licorice, helping maintain the mucus layer that cushions delicate tissues.
- Supplies glycine, an amino acid used to make bile salts that help the body digest dietary fats.
- Provides a building block for glutathione, an antioxidant the body makes to help protect cells from everyday oxidative stress.
How DGL Synergy Works
The digestive tract has a protective mucus layer that separates its delicate lining from digestive contents. DGL supports this natural layer, while glycine supplies a building block used in bile salts for fat digestion and in the antioxidant glutathione. Calcium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function; it is not a substitute for the botanical component of this formula.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice (DGL): Supports the mucus-producing cells and protective lining of the digestive tract. Mucus helps coat delicate tissues in the throat, stomach, and intestines. This form of licorice has glycyrrhizin removed, distinguishing it from regular licorice root; that processing does not eliminate the need for medication and health-history review.
- Glycine: Provides an amino acid the body uses to make bile salts, which help disperse dietary fats so they can be digested. Glycine is also a building block for glutathione synthesis, supporting the body’s own antioxidant defenses rather than supplying glutathione directly.
- Calcium (from Calcium Glycerophosphate): Provides calcium for normal muscle contraction and nerve signaling. Calcium acts as a signal inside cells, helping them respond and communicate. These are general nutritional roles; this mineral complements the formula without replacing DGL’s role in supporting the digestive tract lining.
DGL Synergy Is Formulated For
- People seeking support for the digestive tract’s protective lining.
- Those who prefer a licorice-flavored chewable supplement.
- Individuals choosing DGL with complementary glycine and calcium, under practitioner guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions About DGL Synergy
What are the benefits of DGL Synergy?
DGL Synergy supports the protective mucus lining of the digestive tract with deglycyrrhizinated licorice. Its glycine also supplies a building block for bile salts used in fat digestion and for glutathione, an antioxidant made by the body.
Who should take DGL Synergy?
DGL Synergy is formulated for people seeking digestive tract lining support who prefer chewable tablets instead of capsules. Its licorice flavor, glycine, and calcium distinguish it from a single-ingredient licorice supplement. A healthcare practitioner should review whether the formula fits your health history and medicines.
Are there any side effects of taking DGL Synergy?
DGL Synergy contains calcium, and calcium supplements can cause gas, bloating, or constipation in some people. Its licorice is processed to remove glycyrrhizin, but this does not guarantee freedom from adverse effects or interactions. Licorice can interact with corticosteroids; calcium can affect absorption of some medicines. Ask your practitioner or pharmacist about medication timing, especially with thyroid medicine or antibiotics. Seek advice before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or with high blood pressure, heart or kidney conditions. Complete container-label warnings: Not stated on the manufacturer's label. Consult with your health-care practitioner about your specific circumstances and any questions you may have about this product.
How does DGL Synergy support overall health?
DGL Synergy focuses on normal digestive function through support for the protective GI lining and provision of glycine used in bile salts and glutathione. Calcium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. These complementary roles support everyday physiology, not a replacement for medical evaluation of persistent digestive symptoms.
