Why are you using that? Over time this can be harmful, affect potassium levels and increase blood pressure. The DGL version of licorice has the offending compounds removed and is much safer. Some people use licorice for ulcers. I would strongly suggest the DGL version if that is what you are after.
#1: I'm using the taurine for generalized anxiety, and anxiety manifested in muscle spasms, restlessness. It seems to calm me down, so I think I'll go by the 500mg 3 times a day or 1,500 mg a day. its good warding off side effects of anti-depressants.

of course I'm using the DGL version, I;m basically using it in place instead of using nexium or prilosec for heartburn. it's working pretty well, cuz sometimes when you take anti-depressants you get this heartburn. you know I'm a safety first person right Mrs D?? obv i would go with the DGL. i don't need another problem.
