Vedik Ayurveda Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) Extract Powder Pack of 100 Gram

Medicinal uses
Historically, licorice root has been used in traditional medicine systems like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine for a wide range of ailments.
Potential medicinal uses supported by scientific research include:
Digestive Issues: Licorice may help soothe digestive issues like heartburn and peptic ulcers by forming a protective layer over the mucous membranes of the stomach. It has also shown potential in treating H. pylori infections, which are often linked to stomach problems.
Respiratory Disorders: Licorice is traditionally used to treat coughs, sore throats, bronchitis, and asthma, and can help to thin and expel mucus. Some studies suggest licorice compounds have anti-asthmatic effects and can help combat respiratory infections.
Anti-inflammatory Properties: Licorice contains compounds like glycyrrhizin and flavonoids, which possess anti-inflammatory properties, making it useful for conditions like arthritis and atopic dermatitis (eczema).

Antiviral and Antimicrobial Properties: Licorice exhibits antiviral activity against various viruses, including herpes simplex and hepatitis C. It also has antimicrobial properties that can help fight bacterial infections, including those that cause dental plaque and some respiratory infections.
Skin Health: Licorice may help in skin lightening, acne control, and protecting the skin from sun damage due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and melanin-inhibiting properties.
Other Potential Benefits: Research suggests licorice may also be beneficial for liver health, brain health, diabetes management, and potentially in the fight against certain cancers, but more research is needed in many of these areas.
