There is strong scientific evidence of the clear connection between the brain and gut. Calamus Root is most commonly used to bring these two vital systems into harmony. The effect is grounding, calm steadiness. Calamus clears away mental lethargy and brain fog, while improving digestion and gut health. This warming and carminative herb has long played a role in magical herbalism. Known by Native Americans as “The Singing Herb”, it targets the trachea – helpful for sore throats, halitosis, sinusitis, asthma and chronic coughing.
