Organic Asparagus Racemosus (Shatawari) – Dry Roots

Organic Shatavari (Asparagus Racemosus) is a member of the asparagus family; the plant looks very similar to its European cousin, which many of us know well having eaten it’s delicious tender shoots. The big difference with shatavari – or Indian asparagus – is that it keeps its treasure well hidden below the ground. The herb is thought to be adaptogenic, which means that it may help to regulate the body’s systems and improve resistance to stress. It is harvested from March to May.
