I haven't been able to find anything online. Yuccas not an easy root to come by as in the way of information. Kathi Keville mentions it in her book herbs for health and healing, and I did manage to find some info on it online. Basically it is an anti-inflammatory, good to add to anti-inflammatory, or arthritis formulas. I dont have the info saved anymore on the computer...just a sec, let me see if I can pull something up: Okay here is some info: Yucca root is a therapeutic anti inflammatory phytosterol with the ability to break up inorganic mineral obstructions and deposits. Its primary uses are in pain relieving combinations for arthritic and joint pain, and sediment caused by inflammation such as gout, rheumatism, and cystitis. It is also used to establish a flora balance in the GI tract and for asthmatic relief. Yucca root may have a laxative effect. ------end quote (from www.kcweb.com/herb/yucca.htm ------------- I tinctured some fresh yucca awhile back but havent used it yet. What sort of dock? Yellow dock is one of the best blood cleansers Erin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
