Info with OH's pred states to avoid liquorice; anyone have experience of this please?
AFIK liquorice can raise blood pressure but OH is wondering re some locally made award winning sausages which do have some in the recipe - he's certainly not contemplating eating Pontefract Cakes.

Although black liquorice seems to have some health benefits it also comes with some contraindications. I've always avoided it, not only because I loathe the taste but also because too much can lead to cardiac arrhythmia or even stroke - so make sure you don't have that sort of risk factor in your family.

I was having cardiac arythmia from eating 3 pieces of liquorice last week, was becoming concerned as to what was happening, then a 'light bulb' awakening of remembering NO liquorice with Pred.Fine now no problem.
take care,
