Licorice Reduces Testosterone in Men

Licorice Reduces Testosterone in Men
Licorice has been used by some as a "medicine" and by others as candy. Now researchers* say that, "....men with decreased libido or other sexual dysfunction, as well as those with 'high blood pressure] should be questioned about licorice ingestion."

DETAILS: Men should be wary about taking licorice as it has a tendency to raise blood pressure.
