One of the most commonly known active ingredients in liquorice is a saponin called glycyrrhizin that has been used as an emulsifier and sweetener in the food industry. However, most supplements contain deglycyrrhizinated liquorice (DGL) because large amounts of glycyrrhizin have been associated with serious adverse side effects like elevated blood pressure and lowered potassium levels. Gutgard® liquorice flavonoids are entirely different from DGL with respect to chemistry, composition, manufacturing, and mechanisms of action. While a classical extract of DGL does not contain any significant quantity of flavonoids, Gutgard® is standardized to contain more than 10% total flavonoids and less than 0.5% glycyrrhizin to avoid undesirable effects. More than 50 flavonoids have been identified in Gutgard® which have been shown to have beneficial activity for digestive complaints.2 In fact, Gutgard® liquorice flavonoids have been shown to protect the stomach lining and balance Helicobacter pylori levels much more effectively than regular DGL extracts.3 Gutgard® liquorice can also relieve occasional indigestion, bloating, and stomach pain at 150mg\/day.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d61196 elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-id=\"8d61196\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e8ab4a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-section elementor-inner-section\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-id=\"9e8ab4a\" style='color: rgb(27, 12, 49); font-family: noto-sans, \"Noto Sans\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-920ee8a elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-id=\"920ee8a\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1d70762 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-element_type=\"heading.default\" data-id=\"1d70762\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eARTICHOKE LEAF EXTRACT | 320 mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-95c5b03 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-element_type=\"text-editor.default\" data-id=\"95c5b03\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"\u003eArtichoke (Cynara scolymus) leaf extract (ALE) has also been used in traditional medicine as a digestive aid. The bitter compounds, particularly chloropicrin, are responsible for the digestive benefits of artichoke. ALE has been shown to increase bile production, protect the liver, balance blood lipids, and act as an antispasmodic.4-10 In 2003, German researchers demonstrated that 640mg\/day of artichoke leaf extracts significantly improved digestive symptoms like bloating and fullness as well as the quality of life in 244 patients with functional dyspepsia. Though the study was conducted over 6 weeks, the majority of the treatment group saw relief of their digestive symptoms in the first week.11\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ee20f8 elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-id=\"6ee20f8\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25692ca elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-section elementor-inner-section\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-id=\"25692ca\" style='color: rgb(27, 12, 49); font-family: noto-sans, \"Noto Sans\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-row\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c857aa1 elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-id=\"c857aa1\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-15665ff elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-element_type=\"heading.default\" data-id=\"15665ff\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGINGER ROOT EXTRACT (20%) | 30 mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9f64628 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-element_type=\"text-editor.default\" data-id=\"9f64628\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"\u003eGinger (Zinziber Officinalis) has been used as a digestive aid in Eastern medicine for generations. Studies have demonstrated that ginger accelerates gastric emptying and can relieve occasional bouts of nausea and vomiting.12-13 Gingerols and shogaols, the active polyphenolic compounds in ginger, appear to be responsible for such effects by weakly inhibiting cholinergic M3 and serotonergic 5-HT3 receptors, whose temporary dysfunction is responsible for nausea, vomiting, and hypomotility.14-15 Ginger extracts with a higher gingerol content (20-30% gingerols) are stronger and more effective at relieving digestive discomforts. In 2015, an Italian study of 126 patients found that the daily combination of 40 mg of ginger extracts (25-30% gingerols) with 200 mg of artichoke leaf extracts reduced the severity and frequency of common digestive symptoms like nausea, bloating, early satiety, and abdominal pain 17% more effectively than just artichoke leaf extract alone.16 While most ginger extracts only contain 5% gingerols, MegaGuardTM contains 60 mg of high potency ginger root extract (20% gingerols) for maximum strength.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Microbiome Labs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40214345482411,"sku":"MBL_12","price":67.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/4547\/1915\/files\/MBL-MegaGuard-UK-Bottle-FRONT_20_281_29.jpg?v=1764586495","url":"https:\/\/shop.amritanutrition.com\/products\/mega-guard-60-capsules","provider":"Amrita Nutrition Global","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
