<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Can someone out there please explain to me how licorice can contain gluten? Is it not a plant or is it something else? Are we celiacs to avoid any product that states licorice as an ingredient? I read this somewhere on the list and it stuck in my mind but I can't recall all of the details. My celiac daughter was given a supplement by her naturopath which contained licorice and it made her very sick. Any help in understanding this will be greatly appreciated.... Best wishes, Leslie in Atlanta.
