Experience Relief with the Only Standardized Liquid of Licorice Root Extract
The Licorice Root Extract Advantage
BioMatrix Licorice Root Extract is the only supplement of its kind that states exactly how much of the active ingredient – glycyrrhizin – is in each drop. Other brands may not even know how much they have in their product and suggest high doses which could be dangerous or counterproductive. Our standardized strength per drop is 0.84 mg of glycyrrhizin. This allows you to confidently manage your dosing one drop at a time with utmost precision. Our liquid form is highly bioavailable due to its oral and lymphatic absorption. Precision dosing means your product will last longer and save you money versus cheaper products.
What is Glycyrrhizin?
Glycyrrhizin blocks an enzyme called 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase from downgrading cortisol (which lowers the cortisol reserves you need for health). BioMatrix’ LRE possesses a potent concentration of glycyrrhizin to help preserve your naturally produced cortisol. It is not to be confused with deglycyrrhizinated licorice, which is relevant to digestive concerns.
HPA Axis Benefits for Everyday Use
Using Licorice Root Extract to raise cortisol is one of the most common methods clinicians use to improve their patients’ energy and mood. It forms the cornerstone of therapies which often include other hormones, such as pregnenolone, DHEA, and progesterone. Under stress, your glands secrete cortisol. This hormone is part of your body’s natural stress response, the HPA axis. The HPA axis triggers reactions that influence metabolic actions that play roles in your overall health. Even when cortisol levels are low, and glands fatigued, the HPA axis keeps working to produce more cortisol, contributing to a vicious cycle of fatigue and frequent illness.
Licorice Root Extract Yielding Precision-Dosed Glycyrrhizin for High Absorption
Glycyrrhizin (from Licorice Root Extract) – A triterpene glycoside (a type of beneficial plant metabolite), that is extracted from the root of the licorice plant, Glycyrrhiza glabra. The root contains a mixture of potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts of qlycyrrhizic acid (aka glycyrrhizin). It is effective in therapies intended to increase cortisol production.
Glycerin – Preserves the formula’s integrity and potency, through its protective properties. Sourced from RSPO sustainable palm oil.
