How Many Calories in Licorice?

Licorice contains about 100 calories, per ounce.

According to a recent small Italian study, eating black licorice regularly (1.5oz/day) may reduce body fat without any side effects. Researchers believe this may be because the strong smell suppresses appetite.

American doctors think it may be too soon to draw any conclusions about licorice. They say that eating licorice may make you feel full, so you eat fewer calories.
