It is a natural anti-inflammatory and antiviral triterpene and is ancillary drugs used clinically in China for protection of liver function and treatment of tumors. Glycyrrhizin had a protective effect on immunosuppression, a strong non-specific anti-inflammatory effect, and an effect of reducing the incidence of sodium and water retention. These results suggest that glycyrrhizin alleviates CCl4-induced liver injury, and this protection is likely due to the induction of heme oxygenase-1 and the down regulation of pro-inflammatory mediators and may represent a potent drug protecting the liver injury.

    I haven’t read the article yet, but the picture of the red licorice is really wrong. There is no real licorice in it.

    They are referring to the root of glycyrrhiza glabra. Not the red candy 🙂 You do have to be careful when using the root, in some people it can higher your blood pressure.

    Do not share this completely misleading item. It is not the confectionery but a herb root known as Glycyrrhiza glabra. If suffering from high blood pressure, a heart condition, oedema or are taking certain medications such as warfarin or diuretics, do not take liquorice (or licorice) root.
