We live in a modern culture obsessed with detoxification, all the celebs are doing it and it's always being talked about in the media, but why did we never hear of our Granny doing a detox? Perhaps its because we now live in such an environmentally toxic world, and for many people stress can be very "toxic" to the body. Not to mention the toxins in our food and drink, which is all part of modern culture.

Detoxifying the body is like giving it a spring clean, it helps the body clear out and speed up its waste disposal capabilities, also detoxing the major internal organs can help treat chronic illness, allergies and other symptoms of ill health.

DETOX USES: Liquorice is a tonic for the adrenal glands. During a detoxification program, the body is often recovering from over stimulation, and is fasting from stimulants such as caffeinated drinks, tea, coffee and alcohol. Tiredness and legarthgy can be experienced as the body is recovering. Liquorice is excellent for nourishing the adrenals, bringing them into balance and normalises the secretion of adrenaline. It is also soothing for the stomach and throat, and can support the body through the healing response that often happens when detoxifying, such as indigestion, release of mucus, inflammation of the throat, flu-like symptoms, and exhaustion.
