Lomatium Dissectum Root Extract

🌱 What it is

Lomatium dissectum is a root long used by American Indian tribes as a traditional support for lung and respiratory health.

📜 Where it comes from

Lomatium dissectum root was used for generations by American Indian tribes of the western United States, particularly during the 1918 influenza pandemic, when some accounts describe tribes using it with notably better outcomes than surrounding communities.
