What is Sarsaparilla (Smilax glabra)?
Sarsaparilla is native to both the Americas and southern China. This climbing plant, belonging to the Smilax family, can grow up to 50 meters in length. It is characterized by its small flowers and berries that range in color from red to black, offering a striking appearance. Yet, as is often the case in life, its true value lies beyond what the eye can see. Sarsaparilla is rich in a wide variety of important compounds that already attracted the attention of medieval folk medicine.
For the production of our tablets, we use the ground roots of the plant, in line with traditional folk practices. These parts are carefully processed into a fine powder and then gently pressed into tablets so that you can benefit from all the valuable constituents of the plant.
The hidden knowledge of medieval folk medicine
Although native to the Americas, Sarsaparilla found its way into European healing traditions during the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, Smilax glabra gained great importance as a tonic to promote overall well-being. Its invigorating properties were so highly esteemed that physicians of the time praised it as an excellent remedy for purifying the blood.
In the Americas, its place of origin, the plant has long been used for medicinal purposes. Indigenous peoples employed Sarsaparilla for ailments affecting the stomach, kidneys, urinary tract, skin, and respiratory system.
Key constituents of Sarsaparilla include phytosterols (such as stigmasterol and sitosterol), resins, saponins and steroidal saponins (including parillin and sarsaparin), as well as starch.

Meine neue Detox-Waffe
Ich mische das Pulver morgens in meinen Smoothie – der Geschmack ist leicht herb, aber angenehm. Nach zwei Wochen spürte ich mehr Energie und eine geregeltere Verdauung.
