What is Sarsaparilla?

Sarsaparilla is a vine that can grow up to 164 feet long and is native to North and South America.^91,92 It is a member of the Liliaceae family with over 300 subspecies¹. The leaves are green and contain multiple converging striations and an oval shape. The flowers are green and white with long fibers that fan out to create a starburst effect.

The plant is often used as a flavoring for drinks, and in Asia it is a popular pickled food item¹. A soft drink named for the plant in the U.S. in the 1800s actually contained sassafras, not sarsaparilla³. One species of this herb is popular in Jamaica where it is viewed as an aphrodisiac and called Jamaican sarsaparilla.^95,96

How Does Sarsaparilla Work?

Sarsaparilla contains many components beneficial to health, like flavonoids and antioxidants. The chief active compounds in the plant, though, are saponins, which have a bitter taste and become foamy in water¹. Saponins are chemically similar to steroids and human hormones, and studies have shown them to have healthful effects on the immune system and to have antifungal properties².

Benefits of Sarsaparilla

The steroidal nature of the saponins in sarsaparilla can help increase testosterone production in both men and women, which may help strengthen libido and sexual performance. Additionally, the herb can help balance the hormonal system and relieve some symptoms of menopause like hot flashes.
