Sarsaparilla Root (Jamaican)

Sarsaparilla (Smilax ornata) is rich in antioxidants and other plant compounds that have a cleansing effect on the whole body, particularly the kidneys and liver. Sarsaparilla is known to support immune function and offers adaptogenic properties that help support your bodies response to stress, anxiety, and fatigue. Sarsaparilla contains saponins, these are compounds that bind to a specific group of toxins known as endotoxins and remove them from the lymph system and liver. Sarsaparilla's saponin content also makes it useful in treating various skin conditions including, psoriasis, eczema, and pruritos (sever itching of the skin). Sarsaparilla is a diuretic that helps flush toxins out of the body through urine, which also supports kidney health. Sarsaparilla also helps to relieve fluid retention, puffiness, swelling, and bloating.
