Licorice can cause serious side effects if it's eaten regularly or with certain drugs.
Glycyrrhizin , found in licorice, can cause kidneys to retain too much water and sodium while losing too much potassium.
Diuretics, such as ACE inhibitors, can counteract the action of blood-pressure-lowering drugs, reducing effectiveness.
A woman developed dangerously low potassium levels and high blood pressure from drinking six cups of licorice tea a day.
She stopped drinking the tea and her symptoms disappeared two weeks later .
Salge Blake : Most licorices-flavored products in the U.S. don't contain real root.
Instead, anise oil provides the same flavor without the glycyrrhizin.
