Baldwins Liquorice Root Powder (glycyrrhiza Glabra)

Glycyrrhiza glabra [pulvis radicis]

Origin: Spain

Powdered Liquorice has been used incredibly in Traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. It is considered a 'harmonising' herb that ties in and balances the rest of the herbs in a formula.

Health perks:

The powdered form of Liquorice allows the herb to be rapidly dispersed and absorbed, and this enables effective coverage for soothing inflamed gastrointestinal tissue. It is a common herb utilised for hyperacidity, ulceration and irritated tissue. The root powder's inflammatory-relieving and mucous-protective actions restore balance in a compromised digestive system. Therefore, this can also help as a laxative in constipated conditions; moistening intestinal material and promoting peristalsis (getting that stool moving through). Additionally, the herb helps to equilibrate the beneficial and compromising bacteria.

Helps modulate excessive inflammation while supporting the body's immune system against pathogens. Give thanks to the glycyrrhizin and liquiritin, because these compounds are the reason.

Although not your classic adaptogen, Liquorice supports adrenal resilience and stabilises energy levels in individuals affected by prolonged stress.

P.S. ***If pregnant/ nursing, or there are health imbalances that require attention, it is always wise to consult a qualified herbal practitioner... even before trying a new remedy.
