Has anyone tried Licorice root. It appears to be good at fighting viruses.

Licorice root is good for a number of things. It's part of a 3 herb combo that I take to help stop intestinal cramping.

And Buhner tells us on page 437 of his 2nd edition of Healing Lyme that Licorice (and Chinese Skullcap) : "are synergists; they enhance the action of other herbs with which they are combined."

Yes. In fact I just restarted it today to help with adrenal fatigue and EBV. I buy non-alcohol tinctures. It is very good for the body, but you should take a break from it, especially if you are using high dosages.

I could not do licorice because of the blood pressure issue and the liver involvement.

But that is what this forum is for.... for all of us to give our opinion.

My opinion is try it! Then you will never wonder. And it never hurt anyone to say "I tried."
