Licorice Root Organic

Licorice root is one of the most widely used herbs worldwide and is the single most used herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine today. In a recent survey of Western medical herbalists, licorice ranked as the 10th most important herb used in clinical practice. An astonishing number of Chinese herbal formulas (over 5,000) use licorice to sweeten teas and to "harmonize" contrasting herbs.  Today, licorice root is promoted as a dietary supplement for conditions such as digestive problems, menopausal symptoms, cough, and bacterial and viral infections.   *Not for use in pregnancy except under the supervision of a qualified healthcare practitioner.
