Licorice

Title:

Licorice flavonoid alleviates gastric ulcers by producing changes in gut microbiota and promoting mucus cell regeneration

Objective:

To assess the use of liquorice flavonoids to promote human gastric mucosal epithelial cells and surpassed inflammation.

Results:

This study found that liquorice regulated gut microbiota, promoted the production of SCFAs, and increased gastric mucus secretion and mucin expression.

Conclusion:

Licorice exerts gastroprotective effects by inhibiting inflammation, promoting mucosal barrier repair and angiogenesis, and regulating the gut microbiota and SCFA metabolism.
