Organic Wild Yam

Organic Wild Yam (Dioscorea villosa)

A time-honored root with deep roots in women’s herbal traditions, Organic Wild Yam has long been valued for its ability to support balance and comfort. While not a source of hormones itself, wild yam contains natural plant compounds (notably diosgenin) that herbalists have historically connected with women’s hormonal health and overall vitality.
