Sakhalin Spikenard

• Sakhalin Spikenard, like other Aralia species, has been traditionally used in Chinese medicine to support immune function. A decoction of the root may help enhance resistance against common illnesses.

  The mechanism is not fully characterised but involves bioactive compounds such as triterpenoids and polysaccharides that modulate immune responses.
