Description
Wild Yam is an important herb for the health of the liver and the endocrine system. It is also an excellent digestive aid. It is a popular herb for women because of its estrogen-like properties. It provides the building blocks for the liver to produce the hormones, progesterone and cortisone. It also acts to regulate hormone balance, which can be disrupted during menstruation and menopause. It is the herb of choice when both the liver and the reproductive system are implicated as the cause of hormone imbalance. Wild Yam is recommended for menstrual distress, infertility, menopause and endometriosis. In addition, Wild Yam is used by many as a diuretic, for cramps, nevralgies and pains of the urinary tract.
