What is Stephania?

Stephania tetrandra is an evergreen climbing plant originally native to Taiwan and southern China. It thrives particularly well along village paths and roadsides. Under favorable conditions, it can reach impressive heights of up to 3 meters, climbing spirally upwards without producing flowers. With its green leaves arranged in a spiral along the stems, it somewhat resembles common ivy.

In our products, we use only the roots of Stephania tetrandra, as they contain the highest concentration of valuable compounds. As with all Phoenix der Lebenskraft products, purity, quality, and sustainability are our top priorities.
