Oetosis lanceolata

Oetosis lanceolata, also known as Butcher's Broom or Ruscus aculeatus, is a flowering plant native to Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia.

Its medicinal properties are attributed to the presence of saponins, flavonoids, and other bioactive compounds that have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-edematous effects.

The health benefits of Oetosis lanceolata include improved circulation, reduced swelling, and alleviation of symptoms associated with varicose veins, hemorrhoids, and edema.

Oetosis lanceolata is commonly prepared as a dried root or leaf infusion, or as a supplement in capsule or tablet form, although more research is needed to confirm its efficacy and optimal dosage.
