Licorice root is classed as a demulcent, a substance that is soothing to the tissues. This makes the herb a traditional remedy for sore throats and stomach pains. Licorice tea will soothe and moisturize a dry cough. For stomach pain, deglycyrrhizinated licorice, or DGL, is often taken as a powder or capsule. Licorice causes hypertension in some people, and removing the constituent glycyrrhizin reduces that side effect.
