Tidbit about licorice in tea I learned today

RussianMommy

I had my monthly appt today and I asked her about herbal teas since that was one of my worries (even tho you bumpies all reasurred me it was all safe). I told her we had so many good teas at home but I had been scared to drink certain ones because I was unsure. I asked specifically about hibiscus and licorice and she told me there was a study done in Scandinavia on women who had a TON of licorice in pregnancy vs those who didn't and the women who had a lot, had babies with brain issues.

She basically mirrored what you guys said in that tea in general is safe, as  long as it's not excessive. And for those who may not already know, a lot of green tea can affect your folate/folic acid  absorption.
