Description
Glycyrrhiza glabra, commonly known as Liquorice Root, has traditionally been used in Western herbal medicine to maintain general health and wellbeing. Liquorice root has been used to support gastrointestinal system health, relieve mild gastrointestinal tract inflammation, and soothe irritated tissues.
Glycyrrhiza glabra root has also traditionally been used to loosen and clear respiratory tract mucous, soothe respiratory tract mucous membranes, and relieve coughs. Multiple studies have shown that liquorice root prevents and treats ulcers. It does this by increasing mucus production in the stomach, soothing the stomach lining. Liquorice also increases the blood supply to the stomach, which promotes healing.
How to Brew Liquorice Root Tea
Heat water to a boil in a small saucepan. Use 1 heaped tbsp of Liquorice dried root for each cup of water. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Strain, add your preferred sweetener and serve.
