Samambaia

Samambaia
"Samambaia is a fern found growing throughout the Amazon rainforest, as well as other tropical and subtropical parts of South, and Central America, as well as the Caribbean.
Samambaia has the ability to regulate and support the growth of various cells in the body including the skin and brain.
It's most commonly used in traditional medical systems to treat skin disorders and upper respiratory infections (especially those with a cough), however, newer research has discovered an even more useful ability. That is to protect the brain cells from damage.
It's able to support and stimulate the repair of these damaged cells, which is a significant finding in regards to the ever increasing development of Alzheimer's and dementia in modern society. Samambaia may prove to be one of the most important herbs in the coming years for this reason, as more research is done to understand how it's able to produce these effects, and how we can use it effectively to treat and prevent this highly debilitating and ultimately deadly disease process.
Other uses for samambaia includes treatment for vitiligo, kidney disease, cleansing the blood, an addition to detox formulations, improving and modulating the immune system, arthritis, skin disorders, and cancer.
One of its most interesting uses is as a natural sunscreen, both used topically, as well as when taken internally."
