This product is a botanical liquid extract featuring Sarsaparilla root (Smilax ornata &/or aristolochiifolia) as its sole active ingredient, delivering 660 mg of extract per 0.7 mL serving. Sarsaparilla has a history of traditional use, though specific clinical research on standardized dosages is less common compared to other botanicals. The product earned an N+ Score of 45, resulting in an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average performance in our evaluation.
