"it can give you an arrhythmia."

Like the 'jab'?

My daughter brought me some real black licorice from Iceland. Wow! It’s a whole new experience.

Black licorice is the real licorice.

Red licorice is basically fruit-flavored candy.

I had some Good & Plenty candies last night. Yum!

Eating licorice. How did that ever become a thing. A candy with an oddly medicinal taste and the consistency of dried caulk.

I assume they mean actual licorice, not licorice-flavored twists, which is mostly just sugar.

Licorice has many health benefits.

You can buy it in capsule or tincture form at health food stores.

Somebody ran out of brake fluid soaked inner tubes and here we are.

You can die from eating licorice—and it’s not even that MUCH licorice. 2 oz. of licorice is nothing, but eaten daily it can give you an arrhythmia.

This has been known for decades, but thank you for posting some sanity...

"However, it is important to realize that black licorice is more than just candy. It contains glycyrrhizic acid, which can cause swelling and high blood pressure and deplete potassium and other electrolytes that may cause a cardiac arrhythmia or arrest. Glycyrrhizic acid can be found in other foods, such as jelly beans and beverages for flavor.

What is a safe amount to consume?

There is not a specific “safe” amount, but people with high blood pressure or heart or kidney disease should avoid black licorice, which could worsen these conditions. For people over 40, the FDA says that more than two ounces a day for two weeks may be problematic and cause irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia. People who are on medications or supplements that may be affected by licorice consumption should consult their doctor."

Licorice! Glory, halleluiah!!!! I am halfway to immortality. I have always lived by the rule that All Licorice Must Be Sampled, and many varieties are sublime.

Has anyone figured out the medicinal properties of anchovies? If anchovies are anywhere close to licorice, I am vaxxed and boosted level immortal already.

Licorice root grows wild in the WA State Olympic and Kitsap county forests in moss on older maple trees

Have a box beside my recliner. I think they’re great but they stick to my teeth something awful.

Perhaps the same way as root beer??

Look for Biden or control the supply of licorice.
