Black Licorice Can Kill You
Can black licorice kill you? Licorice is a flowering plant native to parts of Europe and Asia. Its scientific name, Glycyrrhiza, is derived from the Greek words “glykos” (sweet) and “rhiza” (root). The aromatic and sweet extract from its root has long been used as an herbal remedy for a wide variety of health maladies, from heartburn and stomach issues to sore throats and cough. Glycyrrhizin (also called glycyrrhizic acid) is the chemical in black licorice that gives the candy its signature flavor but also leads to its toxic effects”. How dangerous is black licorice to eat? Differentiate between artificial black licorice flavoring and real black licorice for clarity.
