Liquorice Root and Powder 60g

Description

Liquorice Root and Powder 60g. Liquorice root is used to soothe gastrointestinal problems. In cases of food poisoning, stomach ulcers, and heartburn, Liquorice root extract can speed the repair of stomach lining and restore balance. This is due to the anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties of glycyrrhizic acid. One study found that glycyrrhizic acid can suppress the toxic bacteria H. pylori, and can prevent it from growing in the gut. There is also research that’s shown people who have peptic ulcer disease, heartburn, or gastritis had improved symptoms when taking DGL.

The early Egyptians loved liquorice root. They used it in tea as a cure-all concoction. Liquorice was later imported to China where it became an important herb in Chinese medicinal tradition.

Liquorice is recommended to treat respiratory problems. Taking Liquorice as an oral supplement can help the body produce healthy mucus. Increasing phlegm production may seem counter-intuitive to a healthy bronchial system. However, the opposite is true. The production of clean, healthy phlegm keeps the respiratory system functioning without old, sticky mucus clogging it. Over time, stress can leave the adrenal gland exhausted by constantly producing adrenaline and cortisol. Liquorice supplements can give the adrenal gland some relief. Liquorice root extract can stimulate the adrenal gland, which promotes a healthy level of cortisol in the body.

Liquorice plant leaves, dried and crushed into a tea, have become popular. Teas are used to promote digestive, respiratory, and adrenal gland health. Also known as sweet root, Liquorice has been used for centuries for medicinal, health and beverage purposes. Liquorice root is used in modern times, as well, for conditions such as:

• peptic ulcers
• canker sores
• eczema
• indigestion
• colds
• and coughs;

– according to the University of Maryland Medical Center.

Prepare a tea by steeping dried Liquorice root to potentially ease symptoms associated with these conditions. Always ask your doctor beforehand, however, because Liquorice root isn’t safe for everyone. Boil 4 to 8 ounces of water in a saucepan, depending on how much tea you want to make. Add 1 teaspoon of dried Liquorice root to the saucepan for every 4 ounces of water. Remove the water from the heat and let the Liquorice root steep in the saucepan for 5 minutes. Pour the tea through a fine-mesh kitchen strainer set over a teapot or a tea cup. Discard the dried Liquorice root.

Don’t drink Liquorice tea for more than a week. Drinking it for longer than this can cause negative, potentially dangerous side effects. If you have health problems, don’t use Liquorice tea without your doctor’s approval. And be sure to tell your doctor about any medications or alternative medicines you use because Liquorice root can interfere with certain ones. Always research your herbs thoroughly before using.
