Commentary:
Licorice is a sweet, nourishing herb that is excellent for supporting healthy lungs. Its unctuous quality moistens vata and liquefies kapha promoting healthy expectoration and clear breathing. A natural demulcent, licorice soothes the stomach lining, pacifies excess pitta and promotes stomach comfort. It supports the natural lubrication of the mucosal membranes, calms excess vata and supports regular elimination. Licorice is a tonic for the male reproductive system that promotes virility and the healthy production of semen. It also calms the mind and promotes contentment and harmony.*
