Ok, I am not crazy but 6 days ago I was in bed about to fall asleep when ...?

this voice said take licorice root. What the hell is licorice root? I had been sick for weeks, because I was taking these new pills for depression and A.D.D. that were not helping just giving crappy side effects and constipation.

I have never heard of licorice root before, I now take nothing else no more pharmaceuticals. Its awesome! My depression is gone and I have a sense of well being that has been gone for a long time as well my tummy is back to normal!

I don't have a real question, I just wanted to share my joy and let everyone know how important it is to look for that voice inside oneself and be true to it.

Peace!

whatever you say Barbie !!!!!!!

have no idea what they are.But maybe you should ask maybe they are the best pills

Whoot!

and licorice root is a mix of kinds of leaves, plants, and other natural things.

Side Effects and Cautions


In large amounts, licorice containing glycyrrhizin can cause high blood pressure, salt and water retention, and low potassium levels, which could lead to heart problems. DGL products are thought to cause fewer side effects.
The safety of using licorice as a supplement for more than 4 to 6 weeks has not been thoroughly studied.
Taking licorice together with diuretics (water pills) or other medicines that reduce the body's potassium levels could cause dangerously low potassium levels.
People with heart disease or high blood pressure should be cautious about using licorice.
When taken in large amounts, licorice can affect the body's levels of a hormone called cortisol and related steroid drugs, such as prednisone.
Pregnant women should avoid using licorice as a supplement or consuming large amounts of licorice as food, as some research suggests it could increase the risk of preterm labor.

Includes flowers, leaves, bark, fruit, seeds, stems, and roots. or dietary supplement you are using, including licorice root. This helps to ensure safe and coordinated care.
