Only real licorice is potentially dangerous.<br /><br />European black licorice has the glycyrrhizic acid (GZA) compound that messes with the cortisol/mineralocorticoid receptor interaction. The TL;DR is that excessive licorice intake can result it "pseudoprimary aldosteronism" which means: 1) low potassium, 2) fluid retention (extracellular volume), 3) metabolic derangements (alkalosis).<br /><br />Black licorice matters.<br /><br />Nordics love them some really strong licorice, BTW. It's also salty as hell but uses ammonium chloride rather than sodium chloride. Weird pro tip: if you need to fix severe hypochloremia (like from puking up all your stomach acid) and the patient can't take a sodium load, you don't use normal saline, you give them an IV ammonium chloride solution. (I have NEVER run into this situation. It's about the rattiest possible rat-fuck question I can think of.)<br /><br />Mike_Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-30105754304424420802020-09-28T11:06:34.711-05:002020-09-28T11:06:34.711-05:00WTF?
