Suffering From Heartburn, Reflux, Indigestion And Stomach Ulcers?

Bev Dunne

I have often written about a formula containing licorice which may just be what you need at this time of the year.

One of the standout benefits of licorice is its ability to calm the gut. It is in fact used for many digestive problems including stomach ulcers, heartburn, reflux, bloating, colic, and persistent inflammation of the stomach lining. It is often used to overcome an irritated and inflamed gut which can also cause painful stomach spasms. Licorice root lowers acid in the stomach which in turn relieves heartburn, reflux, and indigestion. It is believed the active ingredient in licorice root can overcome helicobacter pylori; the bacteria known to attack the stomach lining which is generally believed to be responsible for stomach ulcers as well as gastritis.

They also contain a combination of soluble and insoluble fibre. Soluble fibre is important because it helps maintain normal cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Insoluble fibre helps maintain good bowel function.
