Taxillus incanus

Taxillus incanus, also known as the parasitic mistletoe, is a type of hemiparasitic plant that obtains some of its nutrients by connecting to the roots of other trees.

Traditionally, the plant has been used in Chinese medicine for its medicinal properties, which include anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

The health benefits of Taxillus incanus are believed to include improved cardiovascular health, reduced blood pressure, and enhanced immune function.

In herbal preparations, Taxillus incanus is often combined with other herbs and used in teas, tonics, or infusions to take advantage of its medicinal properties.
