Re Think About Chicory

If you thought Chicory was only a rich, caffeine-free coffee substitute, think again!  The herb’s diuretic and laxative properties have been used for thousands of years as a purifying tonic for the blood, liver and kidneys, and it will also help to counteract stomach acid after eating too much rich food.  Recent studies show promise for Chicory Root in the area of good heart health by fighting fat and helping to decrease blood cholesterol levels, as well as controlling rapid heartbeat.
