There is some: anecdotal evidence that both of these supplements, zinc L-carnitine and deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DZL), have beneficial effects in treatment peptic ulcer disease and gastritis. They are not part of the usual treatment protocol which includes anti-acids, medicines that block acid production (proton pump inhibitors) and acid/H-2 blockers. I suggest no harm in trying briefly/initially; then to Doc
