Deeply rooted in the folk traditions of Europe, Ayurveda, and Native American herbalism, Elecampane is traditionally used to support clarity, warmth, and seasonal resilience. With its warming, aromatic resins and slightly bitter character, this root has been valued as a traditional ally for supporting the respiratory system inviting ease into the chest and lungs.
In Ayurvedic practice, Elecampane is known to enliven sluggish Kapha, support digestive fire (agni), and promote the natural flow of prana through the respiratory system. Western herbalists have long appreciated Elecampane for its rich inulin content—a naturally occurring prebiotic polysaccharide that supports a healthy internal ecosystem and nourishes the gut. Among Indigenous tribes such as the Cherokee, it was used in teas, steams, and ceremonial smokes, often during seasonal changes, to support deep clearing and renewal.Ojas Naturals Honey Extracts are created using a proprietary process developed from traditional Ayurvedic methods. The honey used in the extraction process works to extract different constituents of the plants, providing a more complete extraction while also adding a pleasant, sweet flavor and, according to the Ayurvedic tradition, honey acts as a carrier during the digestive process, carrying and assimilating the herbs deeper into tissues.
