Is black licorice healthy?

Occasionally, eating black licorice can have some health benefits on the stomach. Licorice can improve digestion, calm heartburn and indigestion, and reduce bacteria known to cause ulcers. These antibacterial properties can also positively impact your teeth, preventing cavity-forming bacteria and soothing sore throats.

What’s the difference between black and red licorice?

Red licorice may be delicious but contains no licorice. Red licorice contains licorice flavoring and either natural or artificial dye to turn it red. Black licorice usually contacts the actual extract of the licorice plant. Black licorice will also have a stronger flavor and is not as sweet. Regarding nutrition, both types are similar in calories, sugar, and protein.
