BENEFITS of LICORICE ROOT
There is some evidence that licorice root may slow the progression of chronic bronchitis associated
in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
According to test tube studies conducted at Chung Shan Medical University in Taiwan,
the glycyrrhizic, asiatic,
and oleanolic acids found in licorice root have an antioxidant effect
that is protective of the cells in the bronchi in the lungs.
This suggests that licorice may help slow (rather than stop or reverse) the progression of COPD when used with standard medical treatments.
Further human research would be needed to support these results.
