Angelica, scientifically known as Angelica archangelica L., is a biennial plant of the Apiaceae family. Despite being a woodland plant, it is rare to find it growing spontaneously. It can be found in the milder areas of Europe and North America. The Organic Angelica Root from Terza Luna comes from Poland, from organic farming, and is sold in cut format for herbal tea.
Angelica root is rich in therapeutic properties and benefits useful for the entire body, especially for the respiratory and digestive systems. Consuming organic angelica root facilitates gastric juice secretion, limits the formation of intestinal gas, and promotes digestion. It is often used to prepare excellent herbal teas for constipation or digestive angelica teas after heavy meals. It is recommended for combating muscle pains and spasms, loss of appetite, dyspepsia, and anorexia nervosa. It is also used for menstrual pain thanks to its antispasmodic effects on the intestines, which help calm spasms related to the menstrual cycle. The positive effects also extend to the respiratory system due to its expectorant action, making it an excellent medicinal herb for coughs and asthma. Finally, angelica root is an excellent general tonic and can be used against fatigue and asthenia.
The uses of angelica root are numerous, and thanks to its benefits, it is often sold in herbal medicine shops. However, if taken in excessive quantities, it can be poisonous, so it is advisable to consult a trusted doctor.
