Wild Yam Root Powder (Dioscorea Villosa)
Wild Yam Root Powder (Dioscorea villosa) is a finely ground preparation of the dried root of the wild yam plant, traditionally used in Western herbalism to support hormonal balance, ease menstrual and menopausal discomfort, and promote smooth muscle relaxation. This North American native root has long been valued for its gentle tonifying effects on the reproductive and digestive systems.
Wild yam is often included in herbal formulas aimed at soothing menstrual cramps, easing perimenopausal transitions, or relieving mild gastrointestinal upset, especially when linked to tension or inflammation. Though it does not contain hormones, wild yam is rich in diosgenin, a plant compound historically studied for its potential to support the body's natural hormone processes.
In addition to reproductive health, wild yam is traditionally used to relax spasms in smooth muscle tissue, which can make it helpful in addressing abdominal cramping, rheumatic pain, or intestinal discomfort. It is also considered mildly anti-inflammatory and grounding in nature.
Wild Yam Root Powder has a neutral, slightly earthy flavor and can be incorporated into capsules, herbal smoothies, or blended into tincture and tea preparations.
Each batch of Wild Yam Root Powder (Dioscorea villosa) is carefully milled to retain its herbal strength and traditional energetic properties. Whether used in women’s wellness blends, digestive formulas, or gentle pain-relief supports, this classic root offers a calming, supportive presence for balance and comfort throughout the body.
