Tried

Licorice Root

I tried Licorice Root for bloating and digestive issues but the results were mixed. I felt a bit more like myself, but the initial improvement plateaued. It might work for others but was modest for me.

Tried

Licorice Root

Licorice Root has been really helpful for my IBS-like symptoms worsening with hormones. I noticed I noticed a subtle improvement fairly quickly. I felt significantly better over the following weeks. I'd recommend discussing it with your GP.
