About This Product

Called "the grandfather of herbs" in Chinese medicine and used as a harmonizing herb in countless traditional formulas, licorice root is one of the most versatile and therapeutically rich plants in the herbal kingdom. Its primary active compound, glycyrrhizin, has potent anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and immune-modulating properties — shown in studies to inhibit viruses including herpes, hepatitis, and influenza, while also reducing inflammation throughout the body. Licorice root is one of the finest herbs for healing the gut lining — it soothes and repairs irritated mucous membranes, reduces stomach acid, and is clinically proven to heal peptic ulcers and relieve symptoms of GERD and gastritis. As an adaptogen, it supports adrenal gland function and helps regulate cortisol levels, making it valuable for those experiencing adrenal fatigue or chronic stress. Licorice also acts as an expectorant, loosening mucus and soothing inflamed airways, and has mild estrogenic properties that can help balance hormones during menopause. This tincture is taken orally — typically 15–30 drops three times a day. Advantages over teas: no refrigeration needed, remains potent for many years, takes up little storage space, and is fast and easy to use. Quickly absorbed by the body and easy to travel with.
