Description
MegaGuard contains licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), which supports the digestive system. It has a long history of use. Traditional practices value licorice highly. It supports the gastric mucosa in the body.
Glycyrrhizin is a known licorice compound. Manufacturers use this saponin as a sweetener and emulsifier. However, large amounts may cause side effects. These include elevated blood pressure. They also lower potassium levels. Therefore, most supplements use DGL licorice.
MegaGuard licorice differs entirely from DGL. It varies in chemistry, manufacture, and action. Classical DGL extracts contain few flavonoids. Conversely, it is highly standardized. It contains over 10% total flavonoids. It holds less than glycyrrhizin. This avoids those undesirable effects.
Consequently, this supplement contains over 50 identified flavonoids. These show beneficial activity for digestive support. It can also relieve occasional gas. It eases bloating and indigestion at 150 mg daily.
