NOW Foods Licorice Root, 450 mg (100 Veg Capsules) — (Pakistan Market)
An Explicit Instruction Worth Understanding, Not Just Noting
NOW Foods' own label states this directly: long term, high level use is not recommended. This deserves real explanation rather than being treated as small print, and it's directly tied to a specific compound in licorice root called glycyrrhizin. With regular, extended use, glycyrrhizin has been associated with effects on blood pressure and the body's potassium levels in some individuals — which is exactly why the label also specifically names high blood pressure and kidney conditions as situations requiring a doctor's consultation before use. If you have either of these conditions, or plan to use licorice root consistently over an extended period, please have this conversation with your doctor rather than using this product indefinitely on your own.
A Higher, More Concentrated Dose Than You'll Find in Some of Our Other Products
Worth knowing directly: our NOW Foods Ginseng & Royal Jelly listing already contains licorice root, but at a much smaller 100mg amount within a broader blend. This standalone product delivers 450mg per capsule — 900mg for the standard 2-capsule serving — a considerably more concentrated dose focused entirely on licorice root itself, rather than a smaller supporting ingredient within a combination formula. If you're using both products, your total licorice intake would be meaningfully higher than either alone suggests.
A Genuinely Long Traditional History
Licorice root has been used and studied in Chinese herbalism for thousands of years, and it remains one of the most recognized herbs in traditional practice globally, valued for its association with digestive comfort and general wellness support.
Not for Pregnant or Nursing Women
This is stated directly and without exception on the label.
A Simple, Vegetarian Formula
The capsule uses Hypromellose (a plant-based cellulose material) and stearic acid (vegetable source) — fully vegetarian, with no animal-derived ingredients, and manufactured without yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nut, or sesame ingredients.
