Cautions
Do not use if you are taking water pills, since Black Currant Leaf can increase the amount of water loss from the body.
Consult a medical professional if you are taking anticoagulants or other medications.
Do not use if you have a hypersensitivity to aspirin or aspirin products.
Keep out of reach of children.
Not to be used by pregnant or nursing women.
Do not take Licorice if you have chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, or any disease that impedes the flow of bile from the liver. Avoid it also if you have abnormal muscle tension, poor kidney function, or low potassium levels in your blood.
When taken in high dosages for an extended period of time, Licorice Root may lead to excessive loss of salt from the blood, water retention, high blood pressure, and heart irregularities. Because of the possibility of these side effects, limit your use of Licorice to 6 weeks. The side effects disappear after the drug is discontinued.
Licorice can increase the potassium loss caused by the other drugs, such as diuretics that flush excess water from the body (Diuril, Zaroxolyn, others). This potassium loss can, in turn, increase your sensitivity to drugs containing digitalis, such as the heart medication Lanoxin.
Licorice may also increase the effects, and unwanted side effects, of steroid medications such as prednisone (Deltasone).
Long term use of Senna as a laxative may lead to dependency.

Dips,Dollops and Drizzles
Summary Transform everyday dishes with these sweet and savory glazes, dips, and accompaniments.
Publisher's Notes Food can be fun, but Liz Franklin recognizes the difficulty of conjuring up tempting and imaginative dishes day after day. In Dips, Dollops and Drizzles, she comes to our rescue with ingenious ideas for sauces, glazes, dips, and seasonings ‹ both savory and sweet ‹ that surprise, inspire, and tempt. Dips are food at its most convivial and undemanding. They can be as simple as sweet roasted squash with onion seed bagel crisps or as special as warm chocolate madeleines with Cointreau. When blessed with a Dollop of vibrant, harmonious flavors, the most basic foods can be made exquisite: stem-ginger yogurt and a drizzle of flowery honey on plump, sun-ripened figs or a spring onion and parsley pesto on pepper-crusted tuna. Less complicated than a sauce, but bursting with flavor, Drizzles can complement any number of dishes beautifully, whether a pomegranate drizzle on caramelized duck breast and apricots or a citrus cake paired with candied lemon cream. Complete with menu suggestions and 60 mouthwatering recipes, Dip, Dollops and Drizzles will instantly expand your kitchen repertoire.
