The study is not about combining vitamin C with DGL, but that could be an even better option. Anyway, unlike antacids or PPIs which neutralize or block acid, DGL is considered a "cytoprotective" agent—meaning it directly protects the stomach cells.

In those vulnerable, protection is needed continuously for 24-48 hours when taking ibuprofen, even while sleeping.

I don't know how long DGL works for, or how often it has to be dosed. I suppose it could be useful more generally as a baseline supplement, just like vitamin C.
