Dried Licorice Root
Licorice has a long history of medicinal use in both Eastern and Western systems of medicine. Licorice has been used medicinally for over 3,000 years. The use of Licorice was recorded on Assyrian tablets and Egyptian papryi. Among the many treasures found in King Tut's tomb was a bundle of Licorice sticks.
Licorice root is probably one of the most over-looked of all herbal remedies. It is used for many ailments including asthma, athlete's foot, baldness, body odor, bursitis, canker sores, chronic fatigue, depression, colds and flu, coughs, dandruff, emphysema, gingivitis and tooth decay, gout, heartburn, HIV, viral infections, fungal infections, ulcers, liver problems, Lyme disease, menopause, psoriasis, shingles, sore throat, tendinitis, tuberculosis, ulcers, yeast infections, prostate enlargement and arthritis.
Licorice root is also said to contain many anti-depressant compounds and is an excellent alternative to St. John's Wort.
As with any herb or supplement, a physician should be consulted prior to use.
