How Licorice Root is a great body cleanser (especially when combined with these 8 herbs)!

licorice root

Licorice Root really helps us!

  • Licorice’s name is from the Greek word meaning, ‘sweet’.  It’s tart sweetness is long lasting.  It can be up to 50 times sweeter than sugar without affecting insulin!
  • Licorice root is the most used herbs in Chinese medicine! (4) It has documented uses back to ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. (5)
  • It’s been used in Chinese medicine as a “guide herb” to enhance their effects and essentially guide the other herbs to where they would be most beneficial. In 2013, this use was observed and reviewed by the Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. (3)
  • It’s been used for medicinal purposes including indigestion and stomach inflammation [42], cough suppression, ulcer treatment, and use as a laxative.  In an Iranian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research study, the leaves tested well against bacteria and thus may work as a staph and candida cure. (8)
  • It also helps: as an antiviral, antimicrobial, blood pressure, leaky gut, autoimmune issues like hepatitis, hyperlipidemia (high blood fat), inflammation-induced skin hyper pigmentation, and might help prevent neurodegenerative disorders and dental caries, anti-ulcer, anti-diabetic & anti-tumor.
  • There are at least four main types of compounds found in licorice root: flavonoids, coumarins, triterpenoids and stilbenoids. (9) 
    • Flavonoids: rich antioxidants & anti-inflammatory
      • An example is the Flavonoid glabradin which is anti-inflammatory, has effects metabolism and functions as a phytoestrogen — which creates a positive effect on women’s health. (11)
    • Coumarins & Stilbenoids: anti-inflammatory & antibiotic

    • Triterpenoids: steroid (10)

  • When Licorice Root is combined with 8 other herbs the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the only Licorice Root I purchase because it’s already combined with the 8 synergistic herbs & I trust its safety.

9 reasons you'll want licorice root

1) HEARTBURN | FOOD POISONING

  • Licorice root (glycyrrhiza glabra) helps heartburn, indigestion, nausea and stomach pain.

2) LEAKY GUT | ULCERS | CANKER SORES

  • It’s anti-inflammatory & soothing.  It protects against ulcerative disorders and helps gut health.
  • It can speed the repair of stomach lining.
  • It can suppress H.pylori. (study)
  • It can be rubbed on gums to help stop tooth bacteria and canker sores

3) LIVER | HEART | CHOLESTEROL

  • It increases bile flow and lowers cholesterol levels.
  • Bile acids account for the elimination of excessive cholesterol.
  • Licorice root’s antioxidant action may enhance capillary health & hinder arterial plaque.

4) ADRENAL FATIGUE

  • It helps us regulate cortisol (the stress hormone) more efficiently so the adrenal glands don’t wear out.

5) IMMUNITY

  • It even helps by stoping the growth of bacteria & viruses like Hepatitis C, HIV and flu.  The triterpenoid content has been confirmed as an anti-viral.  It even raises interferon, a key to fighting off viruses.  It’s anti-allergenic effect is useful for hay fever, allergies and asthma.
  • It can help herpes and shingles if ingested or applied to the skin.  Several studies show the antiviral action may suppress the return and progression of cold sores due to the herpes virus.

6) COUGH |  THROAT | RESPIRATION

  • It helps loosen and expel mucus and bring relief to a sore throat.  It also helps relax bronchial spasms while helping to fight off the viruses that cause respiratory illnesses and infections.

7) PMS / MENOPAUSE

  • It has an estrogen-like effect (phyto-estrogen) in women which helps with PMS, fertility & hot flashes.

8) PAIN RELIEF | SKIN

  • It has aspirin-like action and helps relieve fevers & soothes pain.  It helps abdominal and other muscle cramping and soothes eczema and other skin pain.
  • It helps people with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia pain because it lowers cortisol stress levels.
  • Applied to the skin in a poultice, it helps rashes and pain due to its anti-inflammatory nature.

9) DEPRESSION

  • Licorice root contains many anti-depressant compounds.  It might be one of the most over-looked of all herbal wonders.
  • It encourages adrenal gland function.
  • It has Asparagine amino acid that is needed to preserve equilibrium in the body’s nervous system.

When Licorice Root is combined with 8 other herbs, the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the only Licorice Root (which is already combined with the other 8 herbs) I use because I trust its safety.

CLEANSE lymph

Why I ♥ this!

Allergic reactions cause inflammation (in the joints, intestines, sinuses), hives (and other skin rashes, bumps), pain, foggy thinking and exhaustion.  I want those effects to leave as soon as possible!  I used to have 37 acquired allergies.  I dreaded these awful symptoms!   Here’s what I did to get over the initial allergic response & to strengthen my immunity to help avoid future pain.  I take ALFALFA and rub on Herbal Blend cream (to stop the itch!) and move on to this amazing list that has helped me every time…

  1. NUTRIFERON► raises immunity, increases interferon, contains MACH (patented blend of pumpkin seeds, safflower flowers, plantago seeds & honeysuckle buds) to stimulate cellular immunity!
  2. HERB LAX► mild cleansing
  3. LIVER DTX► helps bile flow, milk thistle standardized to 80% silymarin, antioxidant (reishi mushroom, schizandra chinesnsis)
  4. VIVIX► global cutting-edge cellular DNA repair, phytonutrient, anti-inflammatory, defends cells, increases energy production, resveratrol (ingredient in Vivix) repairs cellular ‘typos’, anti-inflammatory response to high fat/carb diet!
  5. DETOX BATHS► helps our largest organ (the skin) to release toxins.
  6. REBOUNDING► up & down movement forces lymphatic fluid to flow & flush toxins, supports bones & joints (NASA uses it with astronauts regain bone density when returning from space), ↓ cellulite, ↓ weight, fun, ↑ balance & posture, ↑ cardiovascular, endocrine & immunity!
  7. PERFORMANCE► hydrates better than water, balances electrolytes, maintains blood sugar, stamina builder
  8. LYMPHATIC MASSAGE► help nodes to drain from MassageByHeather.com

cherriesgreen-apple-sliced

(November 28, 2008) — Family life gets crazy around the holidays, and kids can get out of their bathroom routine. A new study finds childhood constipation is much more than an inconvenience – it’s a common, sometimes serious medical problem that costs nearly billion each year to treat. That’s equal to major chronic illnesses like asthma and ADHD. We have some important tips for parents to help treat or prevent the problem before it gets serious. … > full story

OUR COMMENTS

Motto:  “If it goes in, it must come out!”  

  • If you eat one full meal a day, you should have one full bowel movement a day.  (2 meals, 2 movements, etc.)  
  • Ideally, BMs should float, clean easily (not liquid, sticky or hard), and not smell too odorous.   
  • If you don’t have the ‘ideal BM’, you can increase fiber, herbs and alkalinity.

 

Fiber

  • helps digestion 
  • eases constipation,
  • cleanses bowel, blood and arteries.   

 

Herb Lax

  • strengthens intestinal muscle action
  • cleanses intestine and blood
  • increases nutrient absorption
  •  

    Alfalfa   

    • increases alkalinity of cellular system
    • enzymes help digest food in the stomach before it enters the intestine
    • natural body deodorizer

    • Sugar Can Be Addictive: Animal Studies Show Sugar Dependence 
    • (December 11, 2008) — Scientists have demonstrated that sugar can be an addictive substance, wielding its power over the brains of lab animals in a manner similar to many drugs of abuse. Researchers found profound behavioral changes in rats that, through experimental conditions, have been trained to become dependent on high doses of sugar. Lab animals that were denied sugar for a prolonged period after learning to binge worked harder to get it when it was reintroduced to them. They consumed more sugar than they ever had before, suggesting craving and relapse behavior. … > full story

      Tips: 

    1.  
      1. Keep blood sugar balanced using a protein source with all 9 essential amino acids.  
      2. Stop sugar cravings with a balanced  B Vitamin.
      3. Stop chocolate cravings with calcium, magnesium & D.
      4. Remove toxins from the body with herbs.  Why?  Toxins cause the pancreas to misfire, causing blood sugar abnormalities and cravings.
      5. Replace refined sugar and artificial sweetners with… safe sweetners.
