Hi - Real licorice can have a laxative effect. Interestingly, real licorice is very rare and hard to come by in the US, though it's very popular in some European countries. You can check the ingredients in black licorice candies to see if there's any real licorice in there - if it's using anise instead that's safe.

Best,
Heather
