According to Wikipedia it is toxic to internal parasites and is often used as a coffee substitute. I remember my advisor in graduate school used to drink chicory coffee and it tasted bitter and awful! No doubt his worm burden was extremely low. I think I much prefer admiring its beauty externally!

I've recently read that Chicory is very healing to the liver, as well as being an anti-inflammatory. There are articles posted on the National Institute of Health and on Science Direct.
