Licorice (Organic Liquid Herb)

Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is a perennial herb native to Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. It has been used for thousands of years, and its usage is documented in ancient Assyrian and Egyptian texts. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ayurveda, and European herbalism have continued to value Licorice for its medicinal properties. The root is the part of the plant most often used for medicinal purposes. 

Licorice root was traditionally used for respiratory, circulatory, liver, and kidney-related conditions. It was prepared in teas, infusions, powders, and decoctions and added to dishes, beverages, or candies. Some people would even chew on the whole root to soothe a sore throat or freshen breath. 

Licorice root contains various bioactive compounds, including glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhetinic acid, flavonoids, and polysaccharides, which contribute to its potential health benefits. Glycyrrhizin is one of the most studied compounds. 

Licorice has been shown in scientific studies to:

• Support a healthy gut mucosal lining
• Promote healthy adrenal function and support healthy cortisol levels
• Soothe the mucus surfaces of the throat
