From time to time, acid discomfort may arise due to various lifestyle factors, such as consuming acid-forming foods. Our Acid Calm with DGL and Botanicals chewable tablets harness the power of natural ingredients to alleviate occasional acid discomfort.† Featuring calcium carbonate to balance stomach pH and potassium bicarbonate, DGL (Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice), and a blend of GI-supportive botanicals, our formula provides a comprehensive solution for healthy relief from occasional acid discomfort.† Our mint-flavored chewable antacid tablets, designed to be soothing, support digestive health following unconventional meals.†

Calcium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate work together to alleviate acid-related issues through complementary mechanisms:

• Neutralization of Acid: Calcium carbonate primarily functions to neutralize stomach acid. When it reacts with hydrochloric acid in the stomach, it forms calcium chloride, water, and carbon dioxide, effectively reducing the acidity of the stomach contents. This neutralization helps alleviate symptoms such as heartburn and indigestion.

• Alkalizing Effect: Potassium bicarbonate acts as an alkalizing agent in the body. It helps raise the pH of bodily fluids, including gastric juices. By increasing pH, it counteracts excessive acidity, which can contribute to acid reflux and gastric discomfort.

• Enhanced Buffering: Both calcium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate contribute to increasing the buffering capacity of the stomach. Buffering capacity refers to the ability to resist changes in pH when acids or bases are added. By enhancing buffering capacity, these compounds help maintain a more stable pH environment in the stomach, reducing the likelihood of acid-related discomfort.

Our formula combines Calcium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate with DGL and a Botanical Blend. See below for more information on these ingredients.

• Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice (DGL) is a key component of our formula, renowned for its multiple benefits in supporting digestive health. DGL offers relief from occasional acid discomfort by promoting a healthy balance of stomach acid and soothing the lining of the stomach and esophagus. Its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce inflammation in the digestive tract, easing symptoms associated with conditions like gastritis and acid reflux. Additionally, DGL supports healthy digestion by promoting the production of mucus in the stomach, which protects the stomach lining from irritation and damage.

In conjunction with DGL, our formula includes a Botanical Blend, which features a synergistic combination of beneficial ingredients for gastrointestinal wellness. Marshmallow root, Ginger root, Broccoli, Slippery Elm bark, and Fennel seed work together to provide comprehensive support for digestive health. Marshmallow root and Slippery Elm bark soothe and protect the digestive tract, while Ginger root aids digestion and reduces nausea. Broccoli provides fiber and antioxidants to support regularity and nourish the GI tract, while Fennel seed helps alleviate bloating and gas. Together, DGL and the Soothing GI Protection Blend offer holistic relief from occasional acid discomfort and promote overall digestive comfort and well-being.

• Marshmallow (root): Marshmallow root is known for its soothing properties, particularly for the mucous membranes lining the digestive tract. It helps to calm and protect the lining of the stomach and intestines, offering relief from occasional acid discomfort and promoting overall GI comfort.

• Ginger (root): Ginger root is renowned for its digestive benefits. It aids in digestion, reduces nausea, and helps alleviate gastrointestinal irritation. Ginger also possesses anti-inflammatory properties, which can contribute to soothing occasional acid discomfort and promoting digestive wellness.

• Broccoli (head): Broccoli is rich in fiber and antioxidants, supporting digestive health by promoting regularity and providing nourishment to the GI tract. Its inclusion in the blend contributes to overall gastrointestinal wellness and supports the body's natural defenses against occasional acid discomfort.

• Slippery Elm (bark): Slippery elm bark contains mucilage, a gel-like substance that coats and soothes the digestive tract, offering relief from irritation and inflammation. It forms a protective barrier along the GI lining, helping to alleviate discomfort associated with occasional acid issues and supporting overall digestive health.

• Fennel (seed): Fennel seeds have been traditionally used to ease digestive discomfort, including bloating, gas, and indigestion. They contain compounds that help relax the muscles of the digestive tract, reducing spasms and promoting smoother digestion. Fennel seeds also possess carminative properties, which aid in the expulsion of gas from the digestive system, providing additional relief from occasional acid discomfort.

Incorporating these ingredients into the Soothing GI Protection Blend† enhances the formula's ability to provide comprehensive relief from occasional acid discomfort while promoting overall gastrointestinal health and comfort.†

By combining these ingredients, you create a multi-faceted approach to calming acid-related issues. Together, they provide immediate relief from symptoms like heartburn and indigestion while also addressing underlying causes such as inflammation and digestive dysfunction. However, it's essential to to check with a healthcare professional, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
