Dr. Musatai studied 20 healthy men and asked them to take 1.3 grams of licorice root extract (containing 400 milligrams of glycyrrhetinic acid with the special taste of licorice) daily for 10 consecutive days, and collected their blood samples for analysis. The results showed that the testosterone values of all experimental subjects were significantly lower than normal.
As is well known, glycyrrhetinic acid, as a medicinal herb, is widely used to treat gastrointestinal disorders, colds, influenza, and chronic fatigue, and has significant therapeutic effects. In addition, glycyrrhetinic acid is also added in small amounts to desserts, chewing gum, toothpaste, and some medicinal teas. Some tobacco manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies also use glycyrrhetinic acid to enhance the taste of their products. Some chewing gum contains up to 24 milligrams of glycyrrhetinic acid. In South Korea, the content of glycyrrhetinic acid in some medicinal teas even reaches 45%.
