GutGard® DGL Licorice Chewable | Gut Lining & Digestive Comfort Support | 90 Chewable Tablets

Daily protection for your gut lining — in a delicious chocolate chewable you'll actually look forward to taking.

Most digestive supplements work after the damage is done. VitaProtect Daily is different — it's designed to protect and maintain your gut lining before irritation sets in, every single day.

Powered by three of the most clinically respected herbs for GI mucosal health — GutGard® DGL licorice, slippery elm bark, and marshmallow root — this formula creates a natural protective layer along your digestive tract, helping to shield the gut lining from the daily wear of stress, coffee, acidic foods, and environmental irritants.

No powder to mix. No hard capsule to swallow. Just one light chocolate-licorice chewable before meals, and your gut gets the daily support it needs to stay calm, resilient, and comfortable.

What's Inside & Why It Works

GutGard® Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice Extract — 75mg (3.5% Glabridin) GutGard is a premium, clinically studied form of deglycyrrhizinated (DGL) licorice — meaning the glycyrrhizin compound that can raise blood pressure has been removed, leaving only the beneficial gut-protective flavonoids. GutGard is standardized to 3.5% glabridin and 10% total flavonoids for consistent, measurable potency batch to batch.

In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human study of 50 subjects with functional dyspepsia, 75mg of GutGard twice daily for 30 days produced significant reductions in total symptom scores. In a separate clinical trial of 107 subjects, GutGard was shown to be over 70% more effective than placebo in reducing H. pylori load after 60 days of daily use. In vitro and animal research has further demonstrated that GutGard protects intestinal tight junctions, reduces epithelial permeability, and supports a healthy gut barrier at the cellular level.

Slippery Elm Bark — 100mg Used by indigenous North American tribes and early settlers for centuries, slippery elm's inner bark contains mucilage — a gel-forming polysaccharide that coats and soothes irritated tissues throughout the digestive tract. Modern research confirms its benefits: in an in vitro study using human fecal matter, slippery elm demonstrated positive modulation of gut microbiota, enhanced butyrate production, improved colonic epithelium function, and reduced intestinal cytokine activity. It also stimulates nerve endings along the GI tract to trigger natural mucous secretion — creating a protective layer from the inside out.

Marshmallow Root — 150mg Marshmallow root has been used in traditional European medicine for over 2,000 years, and both the European Scientific Cooperative on Phytotherapy and Germany's Commission E recognize it for its role in supporting gastrointestinal comfort and addressing mucosal irritation. Its bioadhesive, mucilaginous polysaccharides form a soothing demulcent gel over irritated mucosal tissues — providing both immediate comfort and longer-term lining protection. Marshmallow root also contains flavonoids and phenolic acids with antioxidant and cytokine-balancing activity.

Why VitaProtect Daily Is Different

Three Herbs, One Unified Mechanism GutGard, slippery elm, and marshmallow root all work through complementary pathways — enhancing mucous secretion, coating the mucosal lining, protecting tight junctions, and modulating the inflammatory signals that drive chronic GI irritation. Together they provide layered, comprehensive protection that no single herb can offer alone.

GutGard® — The Clinically Studied Standard Not all DGL licorice is created equal. GutGard is a registered, standardized extract backed by published human clinical trials — not generic licorice powder. This distinction matters enormously for both potency and consistency.

A Chewable You Actually Enjoy Most gut supplements come in capsules or powders that feel like a chore. VitaProtect Daily is a light, pleasant chocolate-licorice chewable tablet — not overly sweet, not chalky — that makes gut support something you look forward to before meals rather than something you dread.

A 90-Day Supply Per Bottle One bottle provides 90 servings — a full three-month supply at one tablet daily. Consistent, long-term use is where the real benefits build.

What You'll Notice

Customers with histories of occasional heartburn, GERD, mild gastritis, reflux, and general digestive sensitivity report:

• Reduced discomfort and burning after meals
• Less sensitivity to acidic foods, coffee, and chocolate
• Calmer, more settled digestion throughout the day
• Reduced bloating and post-meal irritation

Gut lining repair takes consistent daily support. Most customers notice meaningful improvement within 2–4 weeks of regular use, with continued improvement over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is VitaProtect Daily and what does it do? VitaProtect Daily is a chewable gut-lining support supplement formulated with GutGard® DGL licorice, slippery elm bark, and marshmallow root. It is designed to coat and protect the mucosal lining of the digestive tract, reduce irritation from daily stressors like acidic foods and coffee, support healthy gut barrier function, and promote lasting digestive comfort. It is taken before meals as a preventive, protective daily supplement.

What is GutGard® and why is it different from regular licorice? GutGard is a premium deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) extract standardized to 3.5% glabridin and 10% total flavonoids. Regular licorice contains glycyrrhizin, a compound that can raise blood pressure with prolonged use. GutGard has this compound removed, leaving behind the beneficial gut-protective flavonoids in a consistent, concentrated form. It is backed by published human clinical trials showing significant benefits for functional dyspepsia and H. pylori management — making it meaningfully different from generic licorice supplements.

What does deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) do for the gut? DGL licorice supports the gut in several ways. Its flavonoids — particularly glabridin — help protect intestinal tight junctions, reduce epithelial permeability (a key marker of leaky gut), enhance mucous secretion, and balance inflammatory mediators in the GI tract. Clinical trials have shown GutGard to significantly reduce functional dyspepsia symptoms and reduce H. pylori load compared to placebo.

What is slippery elm and how does it help digestion? Slippery elm bark contains mucilage — a naturally gel-forming polysaccharide that coats and soothes the lining of the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. It has been used as a digestive remedy for centuries and modern research supports its ability to modulate gut microbiota, enhance butyrate production for colonic health, reduce intestinal inflammation, and stimulate natural mucous secretion along the GI tract.

What does marshmallow root do for the gut? Marshmallow root forms a bioadhesive, mucilaginous gel that coats irritated mucosal tissues throughout the digestive tract — providing a physical protective barrier against acid, irritants, and inflammation. It has been used in traditional European medicine for over 2,000 years and is recognized by both the European Scientific Cooperative on Phytotherapy and Germany's Commission E for GI comfort and mucosal support.

Who is VitaProtect Daily best for? It is ideal for adults with sensitive digestive tracts who experience regular GI discomfort related to stress, acidic foods, coffee, or other irritants. It is especially well suited for people managing occasional heartburn, GERD symptoms, mild gastritis, reflux, or general gut sensitivity who want a daily protective supplement without pharmaceutical side effects.

How long does it take to see results? Many customers notice a reduction in post-meal discomfort and less sensitivity to acidic foods within the first 1–2 weeks. More significant improvements to gut lining integrity and long-term comfort typically build over 4–8 weeks of consistent daily use. Gut mucosal repair is a gradual process that rewards consistency.

Does VitaProtect Daily need to be taken with food? Take one tablet before meals for best results. Taking it before eating allows the mucilaginous compounds from slippery elm and marshmallow root to coat the digestive lining ahead of food contact, providing maximum protective benefit during digestion.

What does VitaProtect Daily taste like? It is a light, pleasant chewable with a subtle chocolate-licorice flavor — not overly sweet, not chalky. Customers consistently describe it as an easy and even enjoyable part of their daily routine, unlike hard capsules or powders.

Is VitaProtect Daily safe for people with dietary restrictions? Yes. VitaProtect Daily is vegetarian, vegan-friendly, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and non-GMO. It contains no artificial colors, no artificial sweeteners, and none of the most common allergens including wheat, yeast, fish, shellfish, peanuts, tree nuts, egg, and sesame. It is sweetened naturally with xylitol and monk fruit extract.

How does VitaProtect Daily work alongside VitaCleanse ImmuneCore? The two products are designed to complement each other. VitaProtect Daily targets the mucosal lining and gut barrier — providing the protective foundation your digestive tract needs. VitaCleanse ImmuneCore delivers 30 billion CFU of live probiotic strains to balance the microbiome and support immune function.
