Sarsaparilla Alcohol-Free Tincture (1 : 4)

Smilax glabra tincture – made from the roots

What is Sarsaparilla (Smilax glabra)?

Sarsaparilla, originally native to the Americas and southern China, is a climbing plant from the Smilax family that can reach lengths of up to 50 meters. Its small flowers and red-to-black berries give it a fascinating appearance. However, the true value of this plant, as so often in life, lies hidden beneath the surface and cannot be seen with the naked eye. Sarsaparilla is rich in important compounds that already received great attention in medieval folk medicine.

For our alcohol-free tincture, we use finely ground roots in accordance with traditional folk medicine. These are carefully processed with vegetable glycerin to preserve all valuable plant constituents in their full potency.

The secret knowledge of medieval folk medicine

Although Sarsaparilla is originally native to the Americas, this healing plant found its way into European folk medicine during the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, Smilax glabra was regarded as a particularly valuable tonic to promote general well-being. Its invigorating properties were so highly valued that medieval physicians praised it as an excellent blood purifier.

In its native regions, however, the climbing plant had long been in use. Indigenous peoples of the Americas traditionally used Sarsaparilla to support the stomach, kidneys, urinary tract, skin, and respiratory system.

Sarsaparilla contains valuable natural compounds such as phytosterols (stigmasterol, sitosterol), resins, saponins, steroidal saponins (parillin, sarsaparin), and starch.
