Re: Licorice Root as an anti-inflammatory for CF

Been following this (fantastic) thread for a couple of days. Picked up more nettle leaf at HFS today, along with fenugreek (seeds), licorice root (whole, as in "sticks") - but uncertain as to its specificity, i.e., G. uralensis or otherwise). Store did not carry any yucca root (is it a powder), only a tincture, which I declined - salesclerk suggested I just buy a yucca root. So I did.

Questions/concerns:

1) Are the fenugreek seeds, the licorice root (whole) what I want? If it's not the Chinese herb, can any degree of benefit be had?

2) I'd like to make a tea, and aside from the nettle I'm lost in the dark.

3) What-abouts-eye just cook the yucca and try to eat it?

4) Clerk told me many people chew the fenugreek. Whatchya' thinx?

I was too eager to wait. Heading home next week and once settled will order bulk herbs online. Is there a good one stop shop on the web? I've found some items on certain sites, and others on other sites. Would be great to get everything I want with one click.
