Wild Yam Root - Cut & Sifted

Size

Wild Yam, also known as Colic Root, is a perennial vine with a long history of use by indigenous peoples of North and Central America. It is also poorly understood, even today. Although the plant contains diosgenin, a compound used to make the first birth control pills, it cannot be converted to progesterone without the assistance of a lab technician so it is not biologically active in the body.

The dried wild yam root is used to produce decoctions and tinctures, as well as infusions for topical use.

Ingredients: wild yam root
