FAQ
- How does wild yam support women's wellness?
Wild yam has a long history of traditional use to support women's wellness throughout different stages of life, particularly during times of hormonal transition such as menstruation and menopause. Its naturally occurring phytochemicals, including steroidal saponins like diosgenin, have been studied for their potential role in supporting comfort during menstrual cycles and promoting overall balance as part of a healthy lifestyle. - What is diosgenin?
Diosgenin is a naturally occurring steroidal saponin found in wild yam and several other plants. It has been widely studied for its biological activity and antioxidant properties and is one of the primary phytochemicals that makes wild yam a valued botanical ingredient. - What makes Swanson Full Spectrum Wild Yam unique?
Swanson Full Spectrum Wild Yam delivers 400 mg of whole wild yam root (Dioscorea spp.) in every capsule, preserving the plant's naturally occurring steroidal saponins, including diosgenin. Unlike highly concentrated extracts, this Full Spectrum formula provides the complete root in its natural balance of phytonutrients for traditional herbal support. Rooted in Native American herbal traditions, it offers a simple, single-herb formula for women's wellness and everyday comfort. - Is Swanson Full Spectrum Wild Yam suitable for special diets?
Swanson Full Spectrum Wild Yam is made with non-GMO ingredients and is formulated without gluten or dairy. It is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian lifestyles because it contains a gelatin capsule, which is animal-derived. Individuals following plant-based diets should review the ingredient list before use.
