Organic Licorice Powder

Licorice has been extensively used by Chinese people to relieve and prevent cough, phlegm, dyspnea, spasms, and pain. It also relieves spasms of the smooth (involuntary) muscles and exhibits a cortisone-like action. In Ayurvedic medicine, licorice has a long history as a common remedy because of its expectorant, anti-inflammatory, and laxative properties. In Chinese medicine, licorice is often combined with other herbs in many herbal formulas by harmonizing the characteristics of other herbs, alleviating the toxicity of herbs, and modulating the taste of herbs because of its sweet flavour.
