Who should not eat licorice?

Speaking of roasted licorice, everyone is undoubtedly unfamiliar with it and does not know what it is. In fact, it is a kind of Chinese medicinal material made from licorice after a series of processing. Its effect is as good as licorice and its taste is much better than licorice. However, not everyone can eat roasted licorice. So who can't eat roasted licorice?

Although licorice has many good effects, some people still have to say no to it in their daily life, such as people with diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, pregnant women, erectile dysfunction, obesity, or liver and menstrual problems. Because clinical medicine has found that people who take licorice for a long time will generally have higher blood pressure, and it is undoubtedly unexpected for patients with hypertension to take licorice.

For example, patients with heart disease and kidney disease should not take licorice because it contains glycyrrhizic acid growth hormone. Pregnant women who take licorice root may suffer from internal bleeding and lead to premature birth, which is very harmful to pregnant women. Roasted licorice may cause abnormal weight gain, so it is definitely not a "good medicine" choice for obese people, especially in the current trend of "thinness is beautiful". If you want to become a thin beauty, you must avoid the "harm" of licorice on obesity.

Studies have found that taking too much licorice can cause erectile dysfunction, so people with erectile dysfunction should not take licorice casually. And there are some medicinal effects on licorice, so if a girl has abnormal menstruation, it is best not to take licorice, otherwise we will have physical problems, especially it is easy to cause menstrual problems for women, we must try to reduce such situations.

Modern scientific research shows that licorice contains glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhizic acid, licorice sugar and other ingredients, which have anti-infection and anti-allergy effects, can regulate the body's immune function, and have anti-tumor and analgesic effects. Therefore, the main function of licorice is to set the severity of the disease, moisten the lungs and relieve cough, remove toxins, and harmonize various medicines. It is common in spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, fatigue, palpitations, and irregular pulse, and can detoxify.

The above is a friendly reminder for people who cannot eat roasted wormwood. Please pay attention to the food taboos of roasted wormwood to prevent harm to the human body if swallowed accidentally.
