anna Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Licorice root has been used as a remedy for various disorders throughout history. It can sometimes be used as an alternative to Florinef. Licorice root does have some side effects, and patients should get a physician's approval before taking it.I think most of the folk on here that use Liquorice were at some point advised to try Florinef, licorice has other properties like caliming down the GI tract so is also helpful if you have ulcers or slow gastric transit.

jpjd59 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I have heard that licorice root is sometimes used as an alternative to Flornief. I have read though that you should not take it long term. I would check with a doctor.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramakentesh Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Increases blood volume chronically. Also helps me acutely with a blood pressure spike. May have other helpful effects as it has many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
