Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice Powder (DGL) – Product Description

Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice Powder (DGL) is a premium botanical extract derived from the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice). Through a specialized aqueous extraction and purification process, the naturally occurring glycyrrhizin—a water-soluble triterpenoid saponin—is reduced to trace levels (typically <1-3%), while preserving a rich profile of bioactive compounds.
