Chicory is a woody, herbaceous plant that has a wealth of health benefits, including the ability to ease digestive problems, prevent heartburn, reduce arthritis pains, detoxify the liver and gallbladder, prevent bacterial infections, boost the immune system, and reduce the chance of heart disease. It is also a natural sedative, and can protect against kidney stones, and benefit attempts to lose weight. All in all, this small plant is a powerful addition to any diet. The root can also be dried, ground and used to make a coffee substitute.

Over here, we get some coffee that tastes more of Chicory than taste of coffee. It isnt a taste that I like

Smokey, yes this is the same chicory that is added to some coffees. I don't like it in coffee either.
Thank you Les.
