Licorice is a very famous ancient herb, which is most frequently used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It was believed to have the functions of nourishing qi, alleviating pain, tonifying spleen and stomach, eliminating phlegm, and relieving coughing.  Licorice not only may help provide alleviation from upper respiratory infection caused by bacteria, but it can help get rid of mucus from the lungs and help relax bronchial spasms.

Licorice root extract is often used to relieve symptoms of indigestion, such as acid reflux, upset stomach, and heartburn.

 Licorice contains more than 20 triterpenoids and nearly 300 flavonoids. Among them, glycyrrhizin (GL),18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), liquiritigenin (LTG), licochalconeA(LCA), licochal- cone E(LCE) and glabridin(GLD) are the main active components which possess antiviral and antimicrobial activities. The most prominent being glycyrrhizic acid. It has been used for centuries for its medicinal benefits.

Thus, Licorice root extract has potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. Research suggests that, as a result, it may ease upper respiratory infections and aid digestion, among other benefits.
