Costus Root (50g) – Horst – Natural Remedy for Digestive, Respiratory & Skin Health
Description: Costus root (Saussurea lappa) boasts a rich history of medicinal use, prized for its potent anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial, wound-healing, carminative, anthelmintic, cholagogue, antispasmodic, expectorant, and tonic properties. Historically used in cosmetics – even mentioned in the Kama Sutra as a lash-enhancing ingredient – costus is now a key component in creams, masks, gels, peels, scrubs, and facial and body washes. This 50g pack of high-quality Horst Costus root offers numerous potential health benefits: supports digestive health (relieving indigestion, colic, and constipation), soothes respiratory ailments (bronchitis, asthma), promotes wound healing, aids in skin condition management, supports liver function, and may help regulate menstruation. While traditionally used as a general tonic and aphrodisiac, consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if you have peptic ulcers (during flare-ups), constipation, or iodine intolerance. Brew a simple tea by steeping one tablespoon in boiling water for 15-20 minutes. Consume half a cup twice daily with meals. Experience the natural power of Costus root for holistic well-being.
