Has anyone tried it? Any good ( or bad) results? Thanks!

I don't like the taste of the stuff. Enzymatic Therapy makes a DGL licorice chewable that is nice and mint flavored that I like, but I have to stay off of it while I am preggers. It's good for heartburn, and ulcers.

If it's real licorice (often they use fennel and anise, which taste like licorice) it can help protect the lining of the stomach, but it can also have a laxative effect.

I haven't personally tried it.

Hi tnchawk
I've tried the fennel seeds and the tea bags as well and I find them quite nice. I've never been a herbal tea drinker until the last month when I decided to start the IBS Diet.
Hope this helps
Georgette
