Saccolabium lanatum
Saccolabium lanatum, also known as the hairy Dendrobium, is a species of flowering orchid native to tropical Asia.
This plant is valued for its medicinal properties, primarily due to its high content of flavonoids and phenolic compounds, which have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects.
The health benefits of Saccolabium lanatum include its ability to lower blood pressure, improve cardiovascular health, and boost the immune system.
In traditional medicine, the plant is often prepared as a decoction or infusion, where the fresh or dried roots and stems are steeped in hot water to create a tea or infusion for medicinal purposes.
