Swanson Raíz de Helenio de Espectro Completo (4:1) 100 mg, 60 Cápsulas

What is Elecampane Root?

Elecampane root, scientifically known as Inula helenium and commonly called elecampane, is a perennial plant native to Europe and Asia. For centuries, it has been a staple in traditional European herbal medicine, especially valued for its connection to respiratory health. Herbalists used it to prepare infusions and extracts aimed at maintaining respiratory comfort.

What do 'Full Spectrum' and 4:1 extract mean?

The term 'Full Spectrum' indicates that the extract retains the entire spectrum of active compounds present in the original plant, without isolating individual components. This allows for the synergistic action of phytochemicals to be utilized. In addition, this product is a concentrated 4:1 extract, meaning that 4 parts of dried root are needed to obtain 1 part of extract. Thus, each 100 mg capsule provides a potency equivalent to 400 mg of whole root, offering a more concentrated and efficient option.

Tradition and popular uses

In traditional medicine, elecampane root has been used to promote respiratory well-being, especially during seasonal changes. It has also been employed to support digestion and as a general tonic. Although these uses are based on tradition and not on modern medical claims, many people continue to turn to this herb for its historical legacy.
