NaturesPlus Herbal Actives Licorice (DGL) 500 mg - 60 Capsules, Pack of 3 - Supports Healthy Digestion & Overall Well-Being - Vegetarian, Gluten Free - 180 Total Servings

I originally purchased this after researching ways to help with weight loss and IBS related issue. I can honestly say these are the best!! I have read that you should not take them longer then 2 weeks at a time and then 2 weeks off. I am not sure but I highly recommend you research for your self. What I can say is holy moly they give me energy (which I was not even expecting) but not jittery at all, I just feel like a normal human being. I only take one capsule every other day and have noticed 4lbs weight loss (not even trying) and my ibs syymptoms are improving. I swear I don't know how but they are greatly reducing my cravings so I am eating less and being more active since I have more energy. I am going to stop taking them for a week and then I will go back on them. I really honestly do just feel better. I also will mention I started taking milk thistle extract as well as cholera tablets at the same time so I am not 100% as to which or all things are helping but I don't care I found a combo of vitamins that are working for me and I am sooo excited about it! Please research on your own the benefits of licorice root, chlorella and milk thistle.

I wanted a herbal option for acid reflux (did not wish to take drugs) and, after extensive research, decided to give dgl licorice a try (I prefer Nature's Plus products). In the beginning, I took 2 pills about 20 minutes prior to each meal (I opened the capsules and mixed the powder with my mucus before swallowing). The taste was bitter but not bad to me (it makes your mouth/teeth black for a bit). As with all herbal remedies it took a few weeks before I started seeing an improvement. As bedtime was an issue for me, waking-up with the burning, I always took 2 right before I went to sleep -- it made all the difference. It has been a little over a year, I have weaned off of the product, and the reflux is gone. Note: I have hypertension and, even though it is dgl I was a little concerned it might affect this condition -- it did not raise my blood pressure at all. I am extremely happy with this product and feel it helped my body heal and reverse the reflux.

I like this product. I use it for my Gerd and seems to work well. It is Gluten free which I need and seems to be done with quality and care. Says on the bottle: maximum potency guaranteed and also that it is Hypo-Allergenic. Two helpful qualities for the product. I use it on a regular bases.

The scientific test on this I read about said the capsules don't do anything but these opinions seem to refute that. At any rate, I empty the capsules out and chew the contents which is a black powder that tastes just like black licorice. Messy, yes; but since I began doing this two times a day (with peptic ulcers you are supposed to do it 3 times a day which I will begin doing) I have not had anything burn or ache or any symptoms at all. Either the iron pills and/or these have made me feel good again after escaping a blood transfusion by the skin of my teeth. I mean , I was prepped for a transfusion and an hour later the internist came in my hospital room and told me I could go home. Six weeks later I feel well again and I attribute part of that to DGL. Only reason I didn't give it five stars is the study I read said capsules did not work on their study subjects.

I used this product for months and it was fabulous. It helped my stomach but also reduced inflammation. I would open a capsule and empty it onto my tongue before a meal. Recently they completely changed the formula. It’s not even usable. It did the opposite of what it was supposed to do, it burned my mouth and my stomach. It tasted like salt and alcohol. I called the company and they said it was “natural variation”. Something is really wrong with the current product. It is not natural variation.

So far for about almost 4 year I've been using medication for my Acid reflux and some of them gave him side affects. Buy I always want to use an alternative of herbs to use for my reflux. My doctor did a endoscopy and colonoscopy and found what superficial ulcer and what makes me mad is that all I had to do is change my diet and I did now I'm just completely just eat fruits and vegetables cooked and raw. I don't mind eating that but I know it going to take awhile for it to heal doing that. But sometimes I get mild reflux with that until I found this after 4 years I fell in love with it but also drinking chlorophyll with it what these two products all natural and so far no side affects I thank God for natural remedies like this that exists. I'm in love I feel amazing but still in eating fruits and veggies but I'm so happy.

It really works for acid reflux and an irritated stomach. I didn't understand at first that you're supposed to chew them, so I swallowed a couple and thought, well this doesn't do anything. Once I read somewhere to chew them, I tried that and immediately noticed that it helped. I've always a little bit of GERD and just a delicate stomach that doesn't like big meals, fried food, etc. But a month of two ago something went really awry-- I was a little sick and then afterwards, weird stomach aches and lots of heartburn. Like another reviewer, I'm not old, I'm not overweight- in fact underweight, and I eat very healthfully. So I didn't fit the profile other than that I needed to ditch the coffee and soda, and cut back the wine. After a failed round of Nexium (doctor said only four days), I went looking for natural remedies and this was one of the most frequently recommended. I'd say give it a shot.
