Yes this tea does have organic licorice root in it. I have been drinking this tea for about 8 months and I have had no issues with raised blood pressure. I like the taste even though I am not a licorice fan at all. This tea is great and recommend to everyone!

Yes, it does have licorice root. Adds a lovely flavor and it has not affected my BP at all.

DO NOT TAKE IF YOU HAVE HEART PROBLEMS!!!! This product is not good for people with high blood pressure or any kind of heart problems. It does nothing but good things to me but my mother complained of a racing heart and a pounding head ache very soon after taking it. My sister got an instant headache as we'll soon after taking the product and she's 14 years with no know heart problems; however she has complained of chest pains in the past. It's an energy drink like red bull or 5 hour energy there not recommended for people with heart problems!

Hi Kim..No it doesn't contain pseudephrine. I had a prescription from my doctor for Allegra before it became available OTC and since I have a history of high blood pressure, this was a safe alternative. I have always made a point of researching cold and allergy medications to make sure they don't contain pseudephrine because of my high blood pressure. I hope this answers your question. Have a Great Day!

Aloha Ronald, It doesn't taste like licorice at all too me. I like to eat fennel and tastes nothing like that. I haven't eaten candy licorice for a long time. The product has an unusual taste to me. Like nothing I can compare it too!!! A hui hou.

I am not an MD but I would think that you would have to be careful with raising of your blood pressure at high altitudes. I do not have any experience with coca tea, but the Guayusa does not raise my blood pressure that much. It does not give you "hyper" energy, but it is more like a "focused" energy. Hope that helps...

Does anyone know if this has any stimulants in it? Please I could really use the advice!

To my best knowledge it is considered an herbal. I am using it for blood pressure.

Not at all. All stevia sweetened products have a bit of a slick-ness to them which may be the licorice taste you're referencing. I like the unsweetened flavor best because you can add whatever sweetener you want (xylitol is my preference).

The product comes in little single serving tubes and it's a powder. It dissolves completely when I use it in coffee and I can't taste it at all. The package does not have ingredients but I suspect it's mostly licorice from the color and slight smell. Licorice is a known natural remedy for upset due to acid. I hope this is helpful.

I can't answer about this Nutrigold product because I no longer have the bottle. I use Puritan's Pride Turmeric Curcumin 1000 mg capsules and each has 5 mg Bioperine black pepper extract. I believe this product may have helped lower my blood pressure.

I do not see it listed, and there is a disclaimer that it does not contain soy. Diabetics or those with a blood coagulation disorder need to consult their doctor. I checked with my kidney doctor, and there are so many ingredients that he said it is best not to take it. One thing it does do is turn urine a bright yellow/gold even with just one pill.

Hi Doreen, there is nothing listed as regards to the amount of licorice root extract, however this is the first product I have tried and I used it in my tea and on my skin. I found it very effective for my eczema.

Hi there, This is Jeff from ISN. Currently Red Leaf has just a pinch of sucralose (90mg). We don't have immediate plans to reformulate, however we are experimenting with monk fruit for the future. We'll see how that goes. Thanks for your interest. Best regards, Jeff ISN

So...yes it does taste like black licorice due to the anise, but it's not overpowering. Personally I hate black licorice as a candy, srsly gross...even the jelly beans let alone the actual candy. But I DO like this tea. Idk, maybe it grew on me. I drink it w/sugar, as I do w/all teas because I find all teas to be bitter. Even the ones that claim not to be. THIS tea, hwvr, I don't always put milk into, like I do w/all black teas and some herbals.

i looked on the bottle and did not see anything mentioned; however, you may wish to go on internet and look up information on this product.. it is a plant extract from the fruit. it does have potassium

I took it for a short period of time, stopped, and my blood pressure didn't go higher. However, I don't think I ever had hypertension to begin with, it was more stress related. But I would recommend you asking your medical doctor or naturopath this question.
