Athimathuram

Project Profile
  • Licorice Root comes from a tall shrub with bluish flowers of the pea family and is found all across Asia and Europe. The root is used medicinally and is one of the most important herbs in traditional Chinese medicine.
  • Licorice Root is used as a soothing and calming agent for digestive and urniary problems, coughs and sore throats. Overall, Licorice Root helps boost immunity, reduce inflammation, protect the liver and ease menopause problems.
  • Licorice Root has many active constituents that aid the body in numerous ways. Glycyrrhizin acts as an antiinflammatory to inhibit the breakdown of cortisol and also has antiviral properties
  • Flavanoids help heal the digestive tract and provide antioxidant protection. Triterpenoids inhibit cancerous growths and help prevent tooth decay. It also stimulates production of two steroids, cortisone and aldosterone to help reduce inflammation.
  • New World Marketing, which manufactures Panda brandlicorice bars, chews and comfits (small and perfumedlicorice bites), appeals to the adult consumer with ingredients such as molasses, wheat flour, licorice extract and anise oil.
  • Many herbs such as licorice are grown in third world countries, where labor is cheap, and chemicals are not used because cost is prohibitive.
  • The product is inexpensive and free of synthetic chemicals. Large companies involved in the processing and distribution of these herbs know this and take advantage of international markets.
  • Again, the grower needs to get a commitment to buy the crop before he makes the decision to grow it. Risks are higher with specialty crops and price should reflect this.
  • Organic retail sales approx £1.12 billion in year ending April 2004, 11% y-on-y growth.
