I found gycyrrhetinic to be unsafe (in the U.S.it's licorice). Even some herbalists have adopted a conservative stance. In his book entitled Herb Contraindications and Drug Interactions, Francis Brinker suggests that the following relatively innocuous herbs are unsafe to take during pregnancy: alfalfa, lemon balm, basil, black pepper, burdock, calendula, catnip, chamomile, dill, fennel, fenugreek, flaxseed, garlic, gotu kola, lavender, licorice, passionflower, and St John's wort. (2) Ironically, many of these herbs are enjoyed as foods, teas or spices by the general populace, including pregnant women. How is it that an herb which is regarded as completely safe by herbalists, the general public and regulatory authorities, suddenly becomes so dangerous when a woman is pregnant?
