  schema:description "Liquorice root is a flavouring and a common ingredient of Chinese herbal formulas. Mouthwashes containing it have small studies for mouth sores during radiotherapy, but regular use of liquorice containing glycyrrhizin raises blood pressure and drains potassium, and has caused dangerous heart rhythms and cardiac arrest. It interacts with diuretics, heart drugs and blood pressure medicines."@en ;
