Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza spp.) is a well-known medicinal plant in traditional Chinese medicine, where it is used for many purposes, including digestive problems (EFSA-Q-2008-4488).<\/p>\n<p>The special active ingredient of the Licorice root is Glycyrrhizin, an ingredient that gives the sweet root its distinctive sweet taste. Glycyrrhizin can have a negative effect on blood pressure (it can raise it). Individuals with elevated blood pressure should therefore pay particular attention and consult a doctor before they use it.<\/p>\n<p>The Glycyrrhizic acid metabolite inhibits the conversion of cortisol (stress hormone) to the &#8220;inactive&#8221; cortisone. In this way Licorice root raises cortisol in the body (or rather prolongs its effects).<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for only the positive effects of sweet root on digestion without affecting cortisol and blood pressure we recommend you use <a href=\"\/?p=11452\">Licorice root without Glycyrrhizin (licorice DGL)<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A tasty, non-alcoholic tincture that affects the stomach, digestion, adrenal hormones and extends the effects of cortisol.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"etheme_brands":[{"term_id":4687,"name":"Nature&#039;s Answer","slug":"natures-answer-en","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":4687,"taxonomy":"brand","description":"As one of America&#039;s largest and oldest manufacturers of nutritional supplements, Nature&#039;s Answer\u00ae has a proud tradition of providing the highest quality and purity ingredients in every product since 1972.
