Glycyrrhizin has been reported to cause increases in blood pressure and other the side effects. I have tried the chewable form (400mg wafer, NOW brand availible at Vitamin Cottage inexpensively) and, other than needing water and a nibble to cover the black licorice taste, had no problems. DGL also has many other uses. Google: Licorice and the keys cholesterol, memory, brain, fat, artherialschlorosis, inflammatory, arthritic for a good list of hits. Note most candy licorice is usually artificial licorice and of no value. Comment:

If you are a diabetic I bet your Dr would tell you to stay away from candy. Licorice root used as a medicial herb is very different from a licorice flavored candy.

Years back the press really bad mouthed Vita E and we all know how valuable Vitamin E is. . I agree with the fact that with herbal medicines that you have to be careful, however if you go with a product line that you can trust you can always be assurred they have done their quality control and their research.  That's the trick. Product labels sometimes don't represent what's even inside the bottle - it's frightening! If I can offer some insight into a program just for you please consider a phone chat with me and I appreciate your comments here.. Hi Patricia,
