Glycyrrhizol A is a flavonoid compound isolated from the root of the Chinese Licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza uralensis).
Recent studies by scientists from UCLA have suggested that these compounds have antibacterial properties.[1] The strongest antibacterial activity was observed against Streptococcus mutans, an organism known to cause tooth decay in humans.
