Licorice has a long-standing reputation for its healthful benefits. The two primary active constituents are the flavonoids and glycyrrhizin. Glycyrrhizin has anti-inflammatory and anti-viral properties. The flavonoids found in licorice are not only powerful antioxidants, but they also promote healing of the digestive tract. Licorice promotes generalized healing effects on the GI and other mucous membranes by stimulating the bodys repair processes and activating the bodys defenses against further injury. This action helps to support a healthy stomach and esophagus lining, a healthy throat and bronchial airway, as well as a healthy lining in the mouth. Glycyrrhizin itself can cause side-effects, such as increased blood pressure and water retention, in certain people. Therefore deglycyrrhizinated licorice preparations (DGL) are preferred, because the glycyrrhizin has been removed to eliminate the unwanted side-effects. 90 Capsules.
