is liquorice a good or bad thing to eat?

Liquorice is good for you and does help your bowels but things like pontefract cakes still contain sugar. Like everything else eat it in moderation !!

Powdered liquorice root is an effective expectorant, and has been used for this purpose since ancient times, especially in Ayurvedic medicine where it is also used in tooth powders and is known as Jastimadhu. Modern cough syrups often include liquorice extract as an ingredient. Additionally, liquorice may be useful in conventional and naturopathic medicine for both mouth ulcers[10] and peptic ulcers.[11] Non-prescription aphthous ulcer treatment CankerMelts incorporates glycyrrhiza in a dissolving adherent troche. Liquorice is also a mild laxative and may be used as a topical antiviral agent for shingles, ophthalmic, oral or genital herpes.

There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause sores around the mouth (herpes labialis) and on the genitals (genital herpes). Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).

Cold sores sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal in several days to 2 weeks.

The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid—such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.

It's not the best thing, try eating fruits. They have natural sugars and vitamins that are good for you. I like eating canned pinapples. If you read the label they add no preservatives, just pineapple juice. The natural acids keeps them from being subject to bacteria. They last a long time and are very tasty.

Just don't over do it - liquorice contains lots of potassium, which can affect your heart in large quantities. But in moderation it's fine !

Probably not nutritious. Therefore, probably not good. Just a guess though. Eat less calories.
