Smilax regelii (synonymous with Smilax ornata or S. officinalis) was famously one of the first ingredients used to make root beer. It is native to Jamaica, Central and South America. The plant contains steroidal saponins which contribute to its healthful properties. We source the finest sustainably wildcrafted Sarsaparilla root from Jamaica to make this incredibly useful herbal extract. David Winston includes it in his best-selling Muscle/Joint Tonic™ formula.
