Candied Licorice (Honey Fried Licorice- Zhi gan cao) is licorice root that has been stir-fried in honey in order to enhance its nourishing, soothing properties. It is used in Chinese Medicine as a Heart tonic to calm irregular heartbeats and palpitations; for respiratory support; for digestive weakness/dysregulation (often with a “nervous tension/anxiety component to it); and for general weakness and fatigue (chronic)/recovery from a convalescent state.

Try Honey fried licorice root to potentially address:

heart palpitations and anxiety
digestive weakness (especially when anxiety is a cause)
Shortness of breath, “weakness” in the lungs
chronic fatigue and/or revitalizing a tired body & spirit

Safety note: Honey-fried Licorice root can raise blood pressure if used regularly, so if you do so then you should monitor you blood pressure regularly as well.

Suggested Usage for Candied Licorice (Honey Fried Licorice):

Simmer the Honey-fried licorice root in water for at least 30 minutes (3 – 10 grams is the range of dosage, not to exceed 30g). Do not let the water achieve a rolling boil as this will break down the volatile oils you are trying to extract from the root tissue. You can also grind the root into powder and consume it that way.

Licorice root can exacerbate high blood pressure so monitor your blood pressure periodically if you are ingesting this herb regularly.
