CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF ROOT

The medicinal property of mulethi is mainly because of the presence of powerful phytochemicals namely flavonoids, chalcones & saponins. Glycyrrhizin is a popular saponin that is responsible for the sweet taste (50 time sweeter than sugar). Liquiritin, licoflavonol, liquiritigenin, etc are the common chalcones that provide the distinct yellowish colour to mulethi.
