> I just read something interesting that Licorice root raises cortisol levels and boosts adrenal function. It also helps raise low blood pressure and may be good for hypoglycemia and hormonal problems in women. I've tried licorice root recently in fact. It said the recommended dosage is 500mg twice per day. I also read elsewhere that licorice root should not be taken long-term like some other herbs. I'll try and find out how long it should be taken, and then go off it. You have to be careful with it because of the effects it has on blood pressure.

I believe it also lowers testosterone.
