Dysregulation of Cortisol and Aldosterone | Black Licorice and Associated Health Effects

[@doc2help]

Thanks , I recently went overboard on glycyrrhizin and got the whole gamut. Having been a doc for over 40 years it was quite a shock, no pun intended.

I have PCOS and a main feature of it is Insulin Resistance. I started taking a natural supplement that contains several vitamins, minerals and plants to re sensitize the cells to insulin and after 2 weeks I start feeling bladder irritation and urgency, muscle pains, heart palpitations and arythmia, severe anxiety and insomnia. I’m sure it’s the licorice root it contains. It has 25mg of licorice root and you’re supposed to take it twice a day which would be 50mg total. That is way too much! The supplement doesn’t even warm about it or say not to take it for prolonged use. After doing my research I find tons of articles highlighting the dangers of licorice root. Insane how casually people can buy supplements. If it weren’t for how much I research everything I take I’d be in danger. Large amounts of licorice root are fatal. Thank you for your video! I just found your channel and it really helps with understanding stuff I’m curious about!

How can someone lessen the effects you mentioned when ingesting Licorice Tea?

After discontinuing licorice how long would it take to normalize?

[@GypsyBrokenwings]

? Licorice root is one of the natural plants for pain. How does that work with what you're saying?

My doc. told me to not eat this, plus grapefruit as well - who knew? Bugger! I love black licorice...

[@coach7matt]

I wonder if licorice root is similar, because i have a protein shake that contains it. Any time i drink it at night my mind races and i cant sleep

Hi! This video was really helpful to me. I have a question. I have been eating roughly 5 g licorice_extract the last month and I think thats the reason for my health-struggles. If I quit now, how King before glycyrrhizic leave my body and my body returns to normal? And for the swelling in my body to decrease?

[@almal2886]

[@edwardkarnby4776]

thank you so much , that was very helpful for me , can you explain syndrome of apparent meneralocorticoid excess

[@JennWest-Liberty]

So will black licorice help reduce blood pressure in people with super high aldosterone?

[@msain427]

I'll never have the problem with eating too much black licorice

[@billessante]

this is only for commercial-grade licorice. Homemade licorice that does not contain licorice extract will not cause these negative results.

[@beatrizmariamendez2809]

I found that the licorice is good for digestive health. I have a sensitive Srinagar and I thought this could help instead of taking omeprazol or famotidine. If I eat two candies at a day that is going to make me feel bad?

[@ishouldbesleeping1354]

Not 2 pieces of licorice, but 2ounces each day for over two weeks he said in the beginning of this video
