Horbäach DGL Licorice Supplement | 180 Chewable Tablets

This product is working for me and started working from the first dose. I've spent months trying all kinds of things that have run the gamut from "I don't think this does much," to "This is pretty good, I think." This is the first thing where I've said--Thank God, I finally found something that works. I guess the taste is an issue for some people. My Dutch grandfather used to give out licorice coins--Dutch salt licorice. That stuff is a true experience if all the licorice you're used to is the kind you get in the U.S. at the candy counter. So salt licorice was what I was expecting. Instead, I was pleasantly surprised by the sort-of sweetness and good licorice taste. So I guess I would say reaction to the taste depends on expectations. I can't express how thankful I am to have found this product.

Two years ago I was prescribed several antibiotics in quick succession to relieve a highly discomforting skin rash. The antibiotic regimen nuked the good bacteria in my gut. I was then diagnosed with H.Pylori and received the medicine to cure that. Problem being, the GERD/Belching/upper diaphragmatic pressure symptoms continued unabated for the last 18 months. I felt like "the old lady who swallowed the fly" preschool rhyme of old. It was really dragging me down on a daily basis and culminated in severe depression. I tried all manner of Florastor, Align, probiotics, prebiotics, manuka honey, this time of day, that time of day, cut this food out, add that food back in, stop vaporizing cannabis, etc - all of which seemed to mildly (5%) improve symptoms, but with no actual cure. Mastic Gum seemed to be the most beneficial, but not a complete elimination of symptoms. When I was purchasing the Mastic Gum for a second time, this product was recommended alongside. I am incredibly grateful I gave this a try. It tastes awful. I almost had problems swallowing the first dose and I only took it before lunch one day, instead of before all three meals. However the relief was undeniable. I attempted as much the second day, and again repeated it before dinner. Today is my third day and I started it before breakfast as prescribed and I have to say it has literally almost been two years since I felt this "normal". I am frankly astounded. My relief is almost immeasurable. My purchase history attests as much, I have spent hundreds of dollars to achieve this level of relief and it actually only cost me 9 dollars for this bottle which if used as prescribed will last 3 months. Look up DGL effects on stomach and esophogeal mucous membrane lining and tissue repair. There are pubmed articles that testify to its efficacy. Don't trust my anecdotal experience. Plug your nose or do whatever necessary to stomach the taste. Learn to associate the awful taste with the healing effects and you will learn to love it. I hope it helps you regain your quality of life as it has done for me. Thank you Horbaach!

If you are a returning customer you know that the quality of the tablets has changed however, they still work just the same and even better than OTC medications or prescribed. I knocked a star down because of how fragile it is. Instead of the 180 tablets, I probably got less since most tablets turned into fine powder or it’s broken up. The taste isn’t the best, but I don’t mind because it’s natural. Just chew hold your breath if necessary and swallow and flow up with water. It’s worth the money for sure!!!! It was much cheaper before($8), but I mean inflation and the cost of the bottle upgrade played a part. Still a great buy, get it!

ONE YEAR UPDATE: For myself I only get indigestion two or three times a month now. I don’t feel comfortable saying that it can be fully attributed to using this product, but I definitely feel more comfortable using this product instead of antacids. I do still use an antacid, but that’s so rare it’s hardly worth mentioning. I’ll definitely continue with this product. Original comment: I was concerned about the taste after reading some reviews about it being terrible but happen to like the taste of black licorice so I decided to give it a try and I’m glad I did. It tastes just fine. Several minutes after taking my first one I felt some fluttering in my stomach and wondered what was about to happen. Soon I burped and felt great. I’ve been taking these for a week or more now and I see/feel a big difference between licorice and antacids. I still have taken one antacid in that time but I notice I feel much better gastronomically since I started this. It’s cheap enough to test out that you won’t go broke if you don’t like it but I’ve been impressed with it this far.

Kind of hard to chew, but taste is pretty good. It is kind of like black licorice with a hint of chocolate. Interesting that this recommends 2 chewables while other brands recommend 1 chewable for the same dosage. Dosage is confusing on the label. Otherwise good, and may get again. Not sure how effective it is yet. I think it needs to be taken for several weeks to have a noticeable effect.

Five stars bc it works as good as a PPI!!! But dear Lord in Heaven! I grind these up to powder and swallow 30 minutes before breakfast and dinner. So that I don't have to chew them and have pieces lingering in my teeth. Terrible taste and I take some supplements that are gross but this one tops them all. Horbssch is a fantastic brand. Always love what they sell. So effective I keep purchasing until my ulcers are completely healed.

Purchased as an alternative to Pepcid AC since long term use of Pepcid AC causes dementia, and who needs that? The taste was fine and the tablets dissolved instantly after chewing. The directions said to chew two tablets after each meal and they helped with the acid reflux. However, the product, and more accurately the licorice in it, causes a condition called "Resistant High Blood Pressure." My BP shot up to over 203 when normally, I don't have high BP. I started getting chest pains, flutters in my heart, fatigue, and shortness of breath. My doc ordered stress tests, EKGs, pills, nothing brought it down. Even my naturopath missed identifying the side effect! Very scared and worried, I did my own research high BP, and discovered a condition caused by…yep, licorice, or an ingredient in licorice. I immediately stopped taking it, and thankfully, my BP is back down to normal, but it was a scary 3 weeks. I cannot recommend this product on any level. Back to a different Pepcid AC that does not cause dementia. Fingers crossed~

Helps reduce acid reflux very well. Being natural it is a great way to heal your body.

working well and taste good
