SARSPARALINA

The Traditional Tonic for Skin and Vitality.

Sarsaparilla (from the Smilax genus) is a woody vine root treasured for centuries in traditional herbal systems across the globe, from the Americas to Ayurveda. With a slightly sweet and earthy flavour, its roots are packed with beneficial plant chemicals, most notably saponins and flavonoids.

Sarsaparilla is historically celebrated as a powerful "Blood Purifier," a traditional concept referring to the herb's use in supporting the body's natural cleansing and detoxification pathways, primarily through the liver and kidneys.

Key Traditional Uses & Benefits:

• Skin Health Support: Sarsaparilla has a long history of traditional use in helping to soothe and support the body in managing chronic skin discomforts, including eczema and psoriasis. It is traditionally valued for its ability to help reduce inflammation.

• Detoxification & Cleansing: Historically used as a tonic to support the natural function of the liver and kidneys, aiding the body in eliminating waste and toxins.

• Joint Comfort: Traditional healers have used Sarsaparilla to help support the body's healthy inflammatory response, which may assist in providing comfort for joint pain and conditions like gout or rheumatoid arthritis.

• Antioxidant Support: Rich in natural compounds, the root is traditionally believed to support immune function by combating oxidative stress.

• Tea: Steep 1-2 teaspoons of Sarsaparilla Root Powder (or cut root) in a cup of boiling water for 10-15 minutes. Strain and enjoy. Can be sweetened with honey.
